If I remember correctly, and I am sure to hear about it if I am wrong

, in the original board game both planes observers had to reload their gun which put them out of action for a turn or two. on the web site that was not included making the two aircraft rear gunners a bit more lethal.
Is it to late for me to attend Ksnakes school of air combat

A slight correction CT. The board game had the Halb just as it is on this site but the Bristol had 2 rear Lewis guns where you had to track the ammo remaining in each of its magazines and then take 1 turn to reload them. Each magazine had 5 units of ammo. A long burst used 3 units, Medium 2, and short burst used 1. Each Lewis gun had 4 magazines. I think the webmasters made changes to simplify things for the online version.
