Blood Red Skies is a tabletop miniatures game where you command formations of fighter aircraft in battle. Action in the game is fast-paced with six or more planes per side, against another oponent creating a thrilling dogfight can be fought in forty-five minutes or less.
Extra rules can be introduced to include the play cards that really bring your fighter aircraft to life, allowing you to fly them just as they would have been by the Ace's of WWII!
Tilting base of the aircraft shows the status as advantaged, neutral or disadvantaged of your airplane throughout the game and could make all the difference during a dogfight!
Mix and match different battles to create historical air combat or create your own epic scenarios.
Ready to play out of the box with snap together pieces and stickers, but the construction and painting of the models and watching them come to life are just as much fun as the game itself!
Description
The He 111 was the Luftwaffe's most numerous medium bomber at the opening of World War 2 and arguably the most iconic. Although it was sturdy and well-liked, the Battle of Britain revealed the He 111's flaw of weak defensive armament. As more modern bombers became available on the front line the He 111 was progressively moved into various roles including maritime patrol and transport/logistics. Note: a copy of the Air Strike! supplement is needed to use multi-engine aircraft in Blood Red Skies. Contains three Warlord Resin Heinkel HE 111 bombers plus game accessories.
