Wings of Glory: WW1 Duel Pack (2013)

About this game

A pack for beginners with two miniatures and all the rules needed to start and to go deeper into the system: both Basic and Standard rules are included, plus several scenarios and special rules to go with them (both for trench cards and for AA machineguns). Two version are available: - one with Richthofen's Fokker Dr.I and Brown's Sopwith Camel; - one with Paul Bäumer's D.Va and Frank Luke's SPAD XIII. Wings of Glory WWI planes are 100% compatible with Wings of War, using the same scale, base-fittings and pegs.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Strictly 2 players — no more, no fewer.
• Rules load. At 2.3/5 this is a mid-weight game — expect a proper rules explanation before you start.
• Age. The publisher suggests 13 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
