Thnaks for your efforts! :)

The game looks very appealing as far as the models, the rules layout and the ship card is concerned, BUT... :o 8)

IMO it looks far too complicated, maybe I am getting old... :?
I get the feeling that I will buy it anyway, paint the nice minis and play Aeronef with it! 8)
cheers and keep on gaming, Agis - http://www.adpublishing.de

It looks visually complicated because it is putting all of the charts and tables most other games have into the ship cards.  Once you get the basic concept under your belt its actually quite easy to play because you never have to remember any modifiers or tables.  You add up your dice, roll then and compare them to the Breach number on the location you hit.

What's movement and turn-order like?

I'm generally not a fan of hex-based games, but I could make an exception for this.

Sounds fairly easy, rules wise...

The make or break will be the mini's themselves.
