After our success at Dragonmeet 2003, Dragonmeet 2004, Dragonmeet 2005 and Dragonmeet 2006, Shadow Warriors are proud to announce that we will again be running events at Dragonmeet 2008, at West London's Kensington Town Hall, Hornton Street, London W13, on Saturday 29th November 2008. Doors open at 10am.
We will be running Wings of War thorough out the day. As soon as we know our location at Dragonmeet we'll post here, or just look for the men in "Nuclear" Yellow Fleeces.
Wings of War:
The duty of the fighter pilot is to patrol his area of the sky, and shoot down any enemy fighters in that area. Anything else is rubbish.
Baron Manfred von Richthofen, 1917.
The most important thing in fighting was shooting, next the various tactics in coming into a fight and last of all flying ability itself.
Lt. Colonel W. A. 'Billy' Bishop, RAF
Shadow Warriors invite you to take to the skies as one of the legendary knights of the air. Fly your fragile biplane over the trenches of the Western Front, engage the enemy in a test of nerve and skill and, for the fortunate few, celebrate victory.
Wings of War is a simple game for 2 or more players. The rules can be learned in minutes, so before you know it you will be thrust into a whirling dogfight where only the skillful and lucky will survive. Players can join in at any time throughout the day as replacements are rushed to the front to fill the gaps left by those who have fallen. Likewise pilots may retreat back to the hanger for well earned rest and recuperation, only to rejoin the fray later in the day.
Will the Germans carry the day, or will the Allies come out triumphant. You decide!
Cadets should report to the aerodrome at 10.30AM for pre-flight briefing. Chocks Away at 10.45AM and 2.00PM.
Lunch will be held in the NAAFI between 1-2.
The game will be running continuously throughout the day. Just come over to the Shadow Warriors table and then when a space opens up you can join in.
Rules: No knowledge of the rules is necessary.
Times: 10:45am to 1:00pm and 2:00pm to 5:00 pm
Duration: As much time as you can spare.
