A German take on Crimson Skies? You had me at “Beer”.

Its more complex than crimson skies, cause it has rules for different heights, and you even can fly under or over clouds and stuff. The height is managed via magnatized flight stand. It is really cool. Kickstarter should start at 24th of may. Yeah its the Beer war between mostly saxon and bavarian units. 🙂

the special features at a glance:
Epic miniatures based on real and experimental 1940s-era blueprints
Magnetized bases, spacers and miniatures to track speed, altitude and pilot skills
Asymmetric units, including small dock fighters, fighter planes and fighter-bombers
Giant airships that can be armed or used as carriers
Additional optional payloads such as bombs and missiles
Build your own squadron with honor, buy new aircraft and build plans of weapons and planes
