Local Campaign Rules:
The
Long Road of War
An
Offensive Push
Personal rules:
Tailing:
Current Melbourne tailing is as per Southern Cross
Squadron ADPC rules.
North Sea Front:
Any suitable pilot from the Western Front can also fly on the North Sea
Front
(they're not that far apart).
Modified Head-on chart:
This is an under test rules change for local games, especially
those
involving 2-seaters. It reduces the instant kill lethality of
attacking a
rear-observer, but increases the chances of some nasty damage or pilot
hit.
[HO: 1. RW / 2. CW** / 3. E / 4. E / 5. FF** / 6. LW ] for all
Semi-Deflection and Full-Deflection fire.
No-Deflection shots from 200' or less change possible pilot to probable
pilot.
Advanced bombing, torpedo & rocket strikes (local 7th ed expansion).
World War II conversion - Undergoing a rewrite due to movement values having too large a range.
CW pilot armour: reduces all probable pilot hits to
possible pilot
hits until a successful critical is rolled against the CW. (WW2 play
only).
No armour protection: (WW2 play only), this applies to a lot
of early
Japanese aircraft. When the aircraft suffers a critical result,
roll
*twice* for the critical type, applying both results.
Heavy Craft: these cannot do reversal or fancy manoeuvres
& always
count as level. They can only tail other "Heavy Craft".
Most of these craft also have fire extinguisher systems & will
extinguish
engine fires on a 1 (negates need for falling leaf manoeuvre).
Optional Setup modification:
This is a modified setup for a change to the "deploy line abreast and 6 squares apart" that you usually see.
Print two sets of "Formation
Cards"
onto light card, each flight leader chooses a formation from the deck
*before*
rolling for altitude, surprise etc.
Place the flight leaders aircraft down first 6 squares apart, then
place the rest
of the flight according to the formation chosen (the flight leader's
aircraft
is highlighted).
