Oi Oi, I don't snipe, I may occasionally lurk & pounce but I have noting but contempt for people who use sniping software to bid in the last few seconds. I lost a few like that this week, I nearly bought a copy of Rank & File for 99p just to see if EB was being maligned by everyone else but someone sniped me.

Some 1/200 planes have arrived. A pair of Hurricanes and a vic of Heinkels. Somehow, a pair of defiants seem to have fallen into my shopping cart.

These are for our Christmas meeting which will be planes of 1940.

Sorry to hear of your loss Buffster. If it helps, just imagine a simple set of solid, vanilla, plain-Jane rules where the usual stuff is covered without the need for any innovative mechanisms or in fact uniqueness of any kind. Then imagine the horror of EB's impenetrable 32-page 'quick reference sheet' and, voila! you've saved yourself 99p+

32 page QRS?

That must be the condensed version!

Perhaps the text is 1/300 scale...

The movement rules are very detailed. Just like Eskimos have 50 different words for snow, the Gateway Cavalry have 27 methods of routing.
