Bomber Command

New from GMT Games. Bomber Command is a game of the night war in the skies over the Reich in World War II. The game recreates the great RAF bombing raids against the heart of Germany and the defence of the German night fighter arm. Based on an air combat system derived from the award-winning Downtown and The Burning Blue ‘raid-scale’ games, Bomber Command details the tactics of night fighting. Price: $67.

   

  • Mirco Corazza: I'm writing from Italy. I have written a quite simple but -- I think-- playable game on the aerial fighting during WWII. I'm looking for someone to read it and give me a brief opinion. If there is a such person (or group of persons) I can send him a copy of the rulebook. Thank you and greetings.
  • John Kranz: I'd recommend you consider opening an individual game topic on your design at our CSW Forum. You can post your rules there. If you need assistance with this, contact me directly. Thanks!
