Jim, I definitely don't hold to any hard anbd fast measures of what constitutes a skilled vs veteran pilot, etc. As you have noted, not all green pilots or...
Brian, I am not 'sold' on the US or any other Air Fighting unit as naturals... some people are, but nationality isn't a deciding matter, so much as spatial...

Guys, The elements that constitute an ace are great pilot with luck and a plane that survives. In the game A green American with a robust plane can(and should)...
Hi, There is a good book about airpower in WW2: I can't think of the name, but I'll have a look on my shelf. It breaks down into hours in aircraft, the...

Thanks for your comments about the scenario (particularly Chris Pringle). I have adjusted it to provide a better game. Enjoy (I hope). Nick...
I have another noob question before I play my first game of CY6. It breaks down into a series of more detailed questions. The general question I start with is:...
Irv. I am firmly in the camp that ammo level is no one's business but your own. 8^) This requires trust among players, of course. One of the VERY minor...
Hi, Irving. I have 1/600 scale Tumbling Dice aircraft for the Battle of Britain. I have created a gallery in the photos section called "Andy finkel's pics"...
And any pilot can have an off day - because he's had no sleep, or because he's hung over after his best buddy got killed yesterday, or because he ate something...
Hello, Is it possible for a german defender to fly along a formation of bombers and shoot at all of them as he goes by? Our group has a player who is very good...
Spot on. Similar story with Pat Pattle, who was lost in a battle with 110s (trying to save a friend) whilst he had pneumonia and a fever of over 102F. For me,...
No. A plane gets to fire its weapons only once per turn, and only at targets that are eligible once movement is completed. I can see why players might feel...
All - I suggest that anyone really interested in this topic read "Ace Factor" by Mike Spick. It really gets to the heart of what makes a good pilot and also...
Hi - not sure I entirely understand your question but each fighter aircraft can only shoot at one target per turn. If a player is skilled enough to place his...
Nick - right on target (rare for you... ;-) Pattle is a very interesting and excellent example of an "off day". The book I previously mentioned "Ace Factor"...
I can't imagine how anyone could construe the rules to allow you to shoot at more than one plane per turn. Even begging the question... No matter how fast you...
Hi, Rolando. The "terrain mat" is our kitchen table cloth. My wife bought it in a shop in Harlesden, north west London. it is cut from a roll of plastic...
Hi Irv We display the speed and altitude. For damage we use smoke to mark Engine Damage and various other markers to show Airframe Damage. Lucky hits we keep...
Yes... I was thinking it was something like that... Too bad, it will be impossible then to get the same pattern in a store here. Do you use it to game? Or just...
Irv, We display speed with a die for each stand and display altitude in 3D using custom stands with stackable altitude pegs.\ For airframe damage we use a...

Thanks for the feedback on this question, fellas. I agree with all of yez, what you're doing seems like common sense. But it's interesting that there's no...
