Fighters of Europe

Picture this: it is 1940 and the sky above Great Britain is ablaze. With Fighters of Europe you step right into the air battles of the Second World War. You command your own squadrons of fighters and bombers, attack enemy airfields and protect your own targets. Every plane moves separately across the playing area, and as soon as you get an enemy in your sights, that plane must flee or take the hit. The game works with scenarios. The base box contains ten different missions to play. Got the hang of them? Then you can easily set up your own battles. Stay in formation to keep the lead and stay one step ahead of your opponent. Every plane has its own strengths in speed, armour and special tricks. And because each aircraft is drawn as close as possible to the real historical model, you really feel like you are in the heat of battle. No dice, no measuring rulers, just dozens of planes waiting for your orders. The box is packed: a large modular game board, player aids and all the components you need. Think squadrons of Hurricanes and Spitfires, but also the Messerschmitt Bf 109, Heinkel He 111 and Junkers Ju 88. Do you prefer to play alone? That is possible too. With a battle lasting two to four hours, you sink deep into the role of commander.
