Battle of Britain 1940

The Luftwaffe’s ‘Eagle Attack’

Reducing Japan’s great island fortress

Author: Doug Dildy Illustrator: Graham Turner Available: January 2018 ISBN: 9781472820570 Period: World War II 

Author: Mark Lardas Illustrator: Mark Postlethwaite Available: January 2018 ISBN: 9781472822444  Period: World War II

 

e Battle of Britain was not just a heroic story of ‘e Few’. e Luftwaffe’s campaign against Fighter Command was also a new type of air warfare: the first ever offensive-counter-air operation against an integrated air defence system. Based on original documents, this rigorous new analysis of a much-mythologized campaign argues that the Luftwaffe’s own mistakes led to its defeat, which kept alive the chance to defeat Nazi Germany.

In 1942, the massive Japanese naval base and airfield at Rabaul was a fortress standing in the Allies’ path to Tokyo. It was impossible to seize Rabaul, or starve the 100,000-strong garrison out. Instead the US began an innovative, hard-fought two-year air campaign to draw its teeth, and allow them to bypass the island completely. Mark Lardas explains how this legendary air campaign was conceived and fought, and how its success provided a roadmap for the rest of the Pacific War.

In 1965, the nuclear-focused US air forces had to hastily adapt to fighting a conventional war. Hampered as they were, they were then crippled by inadequate strategy and rampant political interference, and Rolling under  became  became a byword for pointless, ineffective brutality. Dr Richard P. Hallion, a vastly knowledgeable air power analyst, explains how Rolling under  became  became the ultimate ‘how-not-to’ air campaign,  which ironica ironically lly led to a renaissance renaissance in US air air power power..

In 1940, the strategically vital island of Malta was Britain’s last toehold in the central Mediterranean, capable of wreaking havoc among Axis shipping. Multilingual aviation analyst Ryan Noppen describes the air campaigns to knock Malta out of the war, led first by Italy and then Germany, and explains why they ultimately failed.

Players hire gangs of criminals, thugs and enforcers from a number of classic Fantasy races, and attempt to take control of the underworld and establish themselves as the city's kingpins. Playing card-based mechanics and a cunning bribery element keep players on their toes, as a one-sided battle can turn around in a flash.

Outremer: Faith and Blood is a skirmish wargame featuring small groups of warriors fighting in Outremer during the Crusades. Whilst suitable for one-off skirmish encounters, the focus is a structured and progressive campaign setting in which players are able to watch their forces grow and develop. Players will also be able to recruit mercenaries and agents such as Hashashin and Varangian survivors to bolster their forces – potent, but expensive, additions that will add a distinct flavour to every encounter.
