As a kid, I had that game in the 1970s. Sadly, it is long gone. I am currently playing Western Front Ace, but I'm not involved in the campaign you mentioned. Using the plastic models and going through each round was very instructional. Thanks for the video.
My last time playing a couple months back I was flying as a Prussian pilot and managed to score 19 kills and making it into the middle of 1917 before my luck ran out. Got jumped by a much faster French plane that just had me dead to rights and there was nothing I could do at at that point but get shot up and down I went. Really fun game Alan!
Thanks Nordic. It is fun the collaborative effort is fun too. Get to read others actions and compare. It is not that easy to make it all the way through
@@campsawyer No it isn't. You really gotta earn it in Western Front Ace and that is what makes it a fun game to play. We should consider finding a few people on the FB group to play the game flying in the same squadron and do after action reports on our sorties.
Bravo Alan for your creativity in combining the WFA format with the old tactical map and biplanes from the classic Dogfight game. I’m a big fan of WFA and currently participating in the same FB campaign (as Lt. JP La Valle in C Flight). Per that, I have been enhancing the tactical level aspects of flight and combat by employing the Aces of Valor map board for the former and actual miniatures of the various planes from GHQ for the latter. I hope you continue to post vids for the campaign of Marcel Hugus and that they will include our very challenging missions of Balloon Busting and Ground Attacks. In addition, I feel it would be a nice touch to showcase this exceptional game format by featuring a bit more (visual) detail on actual mechanics of at least combat by showing the dice rolls for initiative and damage along with the actual damage table as a point of reference. Regardless, keep up the good work and bonne chance to Marcel Hugus along with all the brave pilots of Escadrille N 350…!
Thanks for the view and glad you are onboard with the French campaign. You mention GHQ models, I was looking for some actual Nieuports and Fokkers as mini's but have not been successful finding any reasonable models.
And three missions I believe got home with nothing to show of it. Probably got home and barely made it across. No man's land to friendly lines before crashing. Lots of fun

Thanks for the view. Both are great games and I can now see some evolution to WFA from Dogfight.

This is excellent, love it when people put games together, like this!
Thanks Nangwaya. You had a something to do with this as I took inspiration from your game development.

Thanks for the view Charles. It is a tough game and go sideways very quickly.
