Bad rules for aircraft

We tried these rules when stalingrad came out, they just do not work at all.

Both players purchase an aircraft. Turn one, the player with the advantage uses his aircraft to take out the other players aircraft, whether it has an order or not. they then have air superiority for the whole unbalanced game.

Aircraft should not be targetable unless they have an order token. they then should, to represent the fact that they are not flying around the table all turn but merely doing a fast flyover, be targetable only by units with order token numbers that follow their order number by 1 or 2. this does mean that if the player with the aircraft has more order tokens than the other player, then he can wait until the end of the turn to do his run without fear of reprisal, so even this needs a tweak!

We're reworking the aircraft rules today to get you an update and decrease of losing your planes too early in the game.

Those are kind of realistic rules though…


German infantrymans joke:

"If you see a white plane, it's American; if it's black it's RAF. If you see no planes at all, that's the Luftwaffe."

This is supposed to be a joyful occasion. Lets not bicker and argue about who killed who.

The file has been updated with quite some cool new mechanics with Bluff Order Tokens. Check it out!

I like the new bluff mechanic! That's a nice way to keep your plane alive until you need it. Of course, there's no guarantee your plane will live on that turn if your opponent plays the Initiative card at the right time 😎


I also like the long range penalty for non-AA weapons. I feel that's a good way to keep planes alive and add more importance for having an AA piece.

I would love to see an extension to this theme. containing: different types of aircraft and anti-aircraft guns from the four nations that are there now. this would certainly benefit the gaming fun.

Zijn er ook nerderlandse spelers onder ons? Omgeving nijmegen, uden, enz.

Something to consider for the next Kickstarter.

The changes look interesting and positive, we will try them in our next game.


Thank you for taking feedback

I’ve read a lot about aircraft rules in the forum recently but even though I own a lot of HoN and SoN stuff, I‘ve not a single aircraft in my possession. I can‘t find any HoN product that contains any planes. Are they again hidden somewhere or are you guys just playing a joke on me? 😛

Can someone point out any products(preferably SoN but I‘ll take anything) that contain aircraft ?because the product descriptions are not helpful.

Thanks!

At the moment, the new aircraft system (aircraft as recruitment tiles) is only available via the Heroes of Stalingrad Battle Pack (currently unavailable, but should be reprinted at some point).


The upcoming Big Red One Edition of Heroes of Normandie will also feature this aircraft system.


The first edition of Heroes of Normandie had the old system for aircraft (using cards in the deck).


SoN has no aircraft, but you can use the old system from HoN or the new system from HoS.

Thanks! That‘s good to know. So I‘ll have to wait then.
