Wild Blue Yonder: Down in Flames

"Wild Blue Yonder" is a true deluxe "Down in Flames" product. It contains over a dozen full campaigns, over 200 aircraft cards, plus all of the necessary targets, resource sheets, etc. needed for play. All of this will be packaged in a large box similar to the ones for the Combat Commander games.

Many of the campaigns will be on the same subjects as those in Rise of the Luftwaffe, 8th Air Force and various C3i modules. However, they will not be simple reprints of those campaigns.

In addition, "Wild Blue Yonder" will contain three different types of campaigns: Land Campaigns, Progressive Campaigns, and Operations (The Schweinfurt Raids, for example). The first type will be the familiar “standard” DiF campaign that players of the system are used to. Progressive Campaigns, though, will give both players a fixed “order of battle” along with reinforcements and replacements that they will have to use throughout the campaign. This will reflect the more attritional nature of these air campaigns. Finally, the game will include at least one solitaire campaign for players who don’t have an opponent available.

"Wild Blue Yonder" promises to be the best "Down in Flames" game yet. So strap on your parachute and get ready to take to the skies!
