Really interesting! BGG has an image of the template, too.

Thanks!

The venerable Operation Warboard had a splendid zeppelin shaped MG template. The higher you rolled on the dice the more of was hit by fire. We always played that a single roll of a 6 covered the whole template. But looking back I wonder if we should have been rolling to hit each figure based on that target number!
