Description:

English Only. You will need a copy of the Avalon Hill Game, B-17 Queen of
the Skies to play.

In this game we fly the B-24 Liberator. This is a variant of the original
game. Your first mission you fly one plane. If you feel comfortable with
how we do things, you will receive a 3 plane section for the remainder of
the missions you fly. There are 3 versions of the Liberator that can be
flown by our 918th Bomber Group Heavy.

By access to the web site, players receive the basic information for the
mission. Then the players complete the mission, usually within 10 days.
They then use e-mail to send in a Short After Action Report to the GM.

Having a web page to display your nose art, crew names and your long AAR.
A long AAR is your way to write a short story about what happened to your
plane while on the mission.

Come by the site and look around. We will have a total of 15 players. As
of 8/16/02 we have 5 slots filled, and are on Mission 3. We will run for
25 missions maximum.

Take a look over the web site. See if you like the idea.
