Here are some tidbits from the last game night:

From the German Air Superiority Mission, November 1917:

Bentley Proper (Dan) was shot down. It became difficult to stay airborne with his tail shot off! He crashed his Nieuport 17 on Turn #13 (lucky number), but survived the crash. He will not be out of hospital till February 1918. He now has 63 experience points.

Umlaut Dunlet (Dow) died in a fiery explosion that also took out his Pfalz DIII. A replacement pilot will arrive shortly. Hopefully he will fair better than Dow's other charges!

Fraser Freshmeat (Wayne) shot down Umlaut's Pfalz. Freshmeat was flying a Nieuport 17. He was also shot down, but survived the crash of his plane unscathed....but the plane had virtually no wing left when it crashed! Freshmeat gained 39 experience points and now has 89 points.

Was Mike flying a Pfalz DIII in the game....his pilot probably gained 20 experience points if he didn't get a kill??

Jerry was flying two Albatross in that game. I think Baron Fritz Jagermeister (?) got the kill on Dan and both Albatross survived the battle. They landed after twenty turns on the board. That give Jagermeister 95 experience points and his wingman, Helmut Dickgrabber now has 70 experience points.

Leftenant Penny-Farthing (Robert) was flying a Spad VII and lasted twenty turns on the table. He brought the plane home, but with plenty of fuselage and wing holes in the crate. The damage kept him from further restrict maneuvering. The single gun of the Spad VII wasn't much help either!! Penny-Farthing also received a minor wound for his troubles and will miss the next mission in hospital. He gained 20 points and now has a total of 70 experience points.

Bill was flying the Spad XIII....still need a pilot name....he also will be given 20 pts for the game and will be at 70 experience points.
