Today, lacking live opponents, I did a solo game of Wings of Glory WW1 at the club. I prefer playing co-operatively in this game, but tried a totally solo scenario with me just running my plane.
If you want to know how I did, please go to this link
Enjoy! |

I'd have thought once alight, the balloon would've burned up in a blink. Looks like there were a few near mid-air collisions, too. A dangerous game, balloon busting.
Thanks for the report, cheers! |

I'd have thought once alight, the balloon would've burned up in a blink #Michael May, I thought so too, but the rules indicate the 'Hindenburg Disaster' scenario of burning Drachens is not the whole story, they could 'Flare' for a while but if the amount of gas and air mix reached some critical level, a general conflagration would result. Also, Wings of Glory generally assumes pilots fly over/under each other so collisions aren't possible (we accept this as they were generally rare events). Solo play is tough # 14Bore: Indeed it can be! – I feel your pain! |
