Description

Table Air Combat is a fast, simple air combat game that can be played on any flat surface. All you need are some six-sided dice and some coins to provide weight for the aircraft counters. Everything else can be printed from this ruleset.

A player uses a flight of four aircraft represented by two counters. Aircraft counters move by means of curved “performance rulers” that represent the aircraft’s historical cornering ability and maximum speed.

Each performance ruler is unique to each aircraft, and contains all the speed, cornering, and weapon information needed.

TAC is designed for portability: the entire game can fit in a plastic bag. Even the largest battles can take place on a fast-food restaurant table.

• Industrial target
• HMS Liverpool naval target

Il Gobbo Maledetto: Attack the British stronghold of Malta with C.200 Saetta escorts, while RAF Hurricanes intercept.

Quattro Gatti: Spariveros of the "Four Cats" squadron catch HMS Liverpool and attack the British cruiser with torpedoes.
