Here is one! I felt in love with WoW as I saw the miniatures in a comic shop for the first time. It was like my childhood dream came true (I'm a pretty bad model builder). I wish they'd sold them 10 years ago!

I have now a quite decent collection of fighters. Just like in the bible - two of every kind. My bomber fleet conists only of a D.H.4 and an R.E.8 so far.

hey!
great to find another wow fan!
ive got 13 planes from series 1,2 and 3.
ive recently started up a wow campaign in a local games store in my home city (Tauranga, NEW ZEALAND)

theres another guy on this forum, Keith Upton who helped me get the rules together. we currently have 11 players, most have their own planes but those that dont borrow from others

i would highly recommend playing a campaign if u havent tried it. id be happy to send you the optional rules...

heres a sneak peek at what the campaign rules cover...
1. Limited Ammo
2. Tail Gunner Blind Spot
3. Illegal Maneuvers
4. Resolving Damage
5. Observing
6. Bombing
7. Being Shot Down
8. Pilot/Observer Health

11. Overlapping Bases
12. Balloons
13. Ground Objectives
14. Pilot Points
15. Medals and Awards

ive just recently finished making a set of 32 Ace Special Ability cards. (based on the WW2 ones in Dawn of War but adapted for WW1 pilots)

Im now working on a set of Medals cards for the top pilots in my campaign
