Post subject: The project has started
|
 |
|
This is a personal project of mine, so unlike all other forumini projects, there won't be any cooperation for this. Of course, your feedback is greatly appreciated. You can also request aircraft or maps, which I will try to make if I find the time.
For a start, you can try a 3x I-19 vs 3x B-239 match-up, which I found to be a lot of fun.
During the weekend, I will present the early P-40 and early Bf109.

Hey, NeuralDream!
Thank you for sharing all this work. Wow!
The only suggestion I can think of, off hand, is to allow for characteristic manuevers during the Evade phase. The Emil's Split-S, the Zeke's turn, the Warhawk's dive, etc. That would be cool.
I've always been fascinated by the fighters of WWII, and I love having a reason to play with models of them. 
Edit... I just read the Questions thread, and I see you're already working on it. So, never mind. Excellent game, ND!

Excellent suggestion! I'll consider it in the future.

Hello, do you plan also to include loops, Immelmann turns, Thach Weave tactics and similar maneuvers in this game? I start to like it, even if it needs an extra set of cards
Willing to help with design if you need.

Let's see how well it works with the current rules and then we can think about special manoeuvres. We can also think about design changes as well.

As usual, I have many ideas popping up - bombers, special missions, landing and taking off, torpedo attacks ... this becomes an interesting side-game for AAM.

That's great. I'm not going ahead with more advances aspects yet, because the climbing/diving mechanism has still not been playtested sufficiently and it's a vital aspect for everything.

An advanced rule for offline gaming is to hide movement choices while in a cloud (write them down on paper and present them when you get out of the cloud).

ND, did you ever play the Wiz Kids version of Crimson skies? The game used manuever cards. and had specials. Manuever card was selected based on current speed etc. and placed face down.
Then revealed as the turn progressed. Initiative plays an intregal part.... |

Could you send them to me or post them here? I'd love to see more ideas.

I'm interested to see how movement works in CS.
If it's anything like WoW it will suck, only down fall of that game. Everything else is golden.
But I house rule my own movement for WoW.
