Added some model images of Fantasy Flight’s X-Wing game. Will add to the gallery as I open the various packages. The photo gallery is under the SciFi page.
Star Wars Rebellion – Thursday Game Day
Lee (rebel scum) and Richard (Empire) did a learning game of Star Wars Rebellion. We became highly efficient in the game mechanics.
The rebel scum outfoxed the glorious Empire by going against Lee’s character and doing what rebel scum were suppose to do…
The game is completely entertaining and a good game to play repeatedly. We left the game components setup for next Thursday.
Wings of Glory – Four Aeroplane Mashup and Star Wars Rebellion
This weekend the Krauts took on the Limeys. The German consisted of Jimmy ”bumper plane – Albatros” and Richard “the Red Baron – Fokker” versus Lee “lost another expensive plane – Sopwith ” and Jerry “the yo-yo – Spad”. Jim spent most of the game colliding with other aircraft including his own teammates. The others did traditional dogfighting. The Baron finished off the Sopwith (whose commander wouldn’t give him another plane) while Crash and Burn finally got a shot off finishing off the Baron’s work on the Spad
Next, Jim, Lee and Richard tried a practice Star Wars Rebellion game by Fantasy Flight Games. The game is very similar to Twilight Imperium by the same company. This game will be on the weekday play list.

Wings of Glory
Lee and Richard decided to brave freezing weather to,learn to play Wings of Glory. The first game was a solo game to learn the basics. Then we decided to play one on one using the Standard Rules. Lt Brown in a Sopwith Camel biplane (Lee) versus The Red Baron in a Fokker triplane (Richard). After circling each other like dogs, Lt Brown scored the first hit. The Baron did an Immelmann and surprised the Rookie. The two pilots continued to dogfight with the Baron repeatedly scoring hit after hit but seemingly to no effect even though Brown was even on fire for 3 turns (Lee had almost half the damage deck). The Baron took a few hits but with most of the high level cards. In the end, it came down to the Baron having one point until history repeated itself. But with a surprise 180 turn, Lt Brown went down in flames
