One of my favorites!
My buddy and I just played it and we love it!! Took some time punching out and organizing the pieces but once we did the the game moved along nicely. Loved the charts and how in depth the game can be. Our first time out we only received secondary damage. Definitely one of our favorites when it comes to solitary gaming! Keep up the good work!

Here's my review!
Good game. It's a bit puzzling why there are so many types of Jap planes, which may be just chrome. I like it, though.
