\"8700\"Our 2010 Participation game was called Raid on the Solent. It was based on the raid by over 200 aircraft of the Luftwaffe on Portsmout<\/span>h and \u00a0Ventnor on the 12th August 1940 and was in recognition of the 70th Anniversary of the Battle of Britain.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0We ran this game at Salute,\u00a0 Warfare, Reading. and Attack! In Devizes.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0The rules have been developed in house and are specific to our aims for this game. They are based on our experience of playing the WWI Aerial Game, Knights of the Sky using 1\/72 scale models.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0For this game, all the models have been supplied by Raiden Miniatures and painted by a team of Club members. The terrain was based on Kallistra hexes which the Club purchased or were loaned by Club members. The bases have been scratch built. The planes are attached to the bases using magnets to allow removal of casualties. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0The rules we used are available as a PDF by clicking here<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
