(More customer reviews)While modern computer games may do a better job of simulating the sights and sounds of air-combat and flying bombers over Germany, this game is MUCH more realistic in regards to understanding what was actually happening. There are a lot of charts & tables and dice-rolling, but overall you get a very realistic idea as to just how tough it was to survive 25 bombing missions!
My two brothers and I played this one repeatedly over one weekend, dividing the members of our B-17 crew evenly among us, giving them names, and cheering their successes, like when they'd shoot down an attacking German plane or complete a highly successful bombing mission. Likewise, we felt the terror of having our plane badly damaged by flak and being forced out of formation, only to then be hunted down by German fighters. Once we were even shot down, and everybody had to bail-out. Several individual crewmen didn't make it. Over the course of completing 25-missions, we felt like we'd experienced the real thing. This is an educational game that's a LOT of fun!
