The World War II version of the fan favorite!
I was just thinking that it would be cool to see some torpedo bombers at some point in the near future. Maybe the next boxed set?
The third boxed set for the WWI games introduced the large barrage balloons as targets, maybe some larger ship target cards could be worked out for the third boxed set in the WWII arena?
Hey, anybody seen Andrea around here...
Young, Rodger W., Private, 148th Infantry, 37th Infantry Division (the Ohio Buckeyes) born Tiffin, Ohio, 28 April 1918 died 31 July 1943, on the island of New Georgia, Solomons, South Pacific, while singlehandedly attackingdestroying an enemy machine-gun pillbox. His platoon had been pinned down by intense fire from this pillbox Private Young was wounded in the first burst. He crawled toward the pillbox, was wounded a second time but continued to advance, firing his rifle as he did so. He closed on the pillbox, attackeddestroyed it with hand grenades, but in so doing he was wounded a third timekilled.
His boldgallant action in the face of overwhelming odds enabled his teammates to escape without loss; he was awarded posthumously the Medal of Honor.

Well, it is not unlikely that the Swordsfish will be in the next box which is about biplanes.
Japanese and american planes will probably not come in a while.
I havn't seen Andrea here for a while, no. Doesn't mean he doesn't read the forum however.

I'd be curious to venture a guess as to what altitude a torpedo bomber would bomb from?
Zero altitude with one altitude marker? Two maybe? Nah, that's got to be too high. I'm guessing one marker.
Then we'd need running distance specs and movement...
