Modder Fokkers: WWI Air

Game 1: 
Steve, Dale & Mike with 2 Fokker DVII & 1 Pfalz
v.
Nick, Chris & Ross with a Camel, a SPAD & a Bristol Fighter.
The battle started with random deployment around the table which put two Brits at the far end of the table, two Germans on the LH side & one of each at the near end.   the two at the near end zoomed past each other as a dog fight started at the other end.
Practicing social distancing.
Nick's Camel copped a lot of damage, broke off & ran for home, but Mike's Pfalz stuck to it's tail.
The Bristol & SPAD fought on, inflicting enough damage to make one Fokker break off, but after the Bristol joined the Camel on the deck, the SPAD used it's horsepower to escape.

Game 2:
The Handley Page has to fly the length of the table through a flock of Fokkers with an escort of 2 Camels.

 The size of the model caused some practical problems in the game, but it sure looked good.
One of the Camels went down, then one Fokker chased the remaining Camel while the others latched onto the tail of the bomber.
The Fokkers all suffered damage, but it was the bomber that went down & the surviving Camel bolted for home.

As always with Modder Fokkers, good fun games.
