3W (World Wide Wargames) – Aces High
Aces High is a simultaneous movement game that puts you in the cockpit, with only your own skill between you and your opponent’s triumphant cry of “Flamer!”
Includes data on 72 different types of aircraft. The data includes information on Speed, flying qualities, armament, ability to absorb punishment, etc.
Aces High, although not as detailed as Wings, includes rules for stalls, spins, ropey (unreliable) engines, aircrew quality, spotting, archie (anti-aircraft fire), and more.
Aces High even has rules for different types of missions, from photo-reconnaissance to balloon busting to bombing.
The number of maneuvers is limited to banks, turns, sideslips, and half-loops. For example, there are no rules for Immelman turns or barrel-rolls, but the Immelman is accomplished just as in real life… a half-roll followed by continuous banking from the inverted position back to the upright position; a barrel roll is accomplished by a combination of banking and altitude changes during otherwise forward-flight.
This download includes the following:
– Rulebook and scenarios in PDF format
– Full color maps ready to print
– Full color counter sheet ready to print
– All charts, data cards and tables ready to print
A fantastic addition to any wargame collection in a convenient format.
