Wings of Glory VSF Style! Test Game...
« on: March 26, 2017, 11:17:39 AM »
I have some 1/56 VSF Flyers I often use in conjunction with my ground forces using FUBAR VSF rules...BUT...I figured I could use them with my Wings of Glory rules and accessories as well!

My 'forces' with home made data cards added to their stands...they're nominally 1/56 models but being steam powered and slower in real life (?!?) than WW I planes the cards movement distances work fine...


The result of my first solo test game (using the Herkybird's Nest Solo Rules)...I was shot down!


More pictures and details are on my blog!

Cheers!

Well done!

Will have to bring this up to the local group, though we've hit a bit of doldrums lately. I don't begrudge the others enjoying SAGA and Kings of War, mind you, but these damnable Real Life (tm) intrusions are JUST TOO MUCH!

I say as I enjoy a week with the daughter and grandchildren in another city... ;)

Great, I've been building a VSF air fleet for air to air combat and need a set of rules. But I'll need ideas for using with airships, and flight packs (for boarding).

Thanks everyone, a fun aside!

Mysteriousbill, there are non official WoG rules for airships/zeppelins on the net, re flight packs and boarding you'll have to house rule...my VSF airship will be ready soon for a trial game soon just finishing up the base currently...
