About Whistling Death
Whistling Death is the third game in J D Webster's WWII Fighting Wings series, developing the earlier Over the Reich and Achtung Spitfire games. Containing 110 scenarios ranging from flight training (3), introductory air combat (5), air-to air combat (58), air-to-ground (4), air-naval (32), and mission level (8). It features 40 distinctive aircraft and numerous ship types. The only facet of the war in the Pacific missing from this game is ground support. Components: 420 aircraft counters (1/2 inch square) 140 ship counters (1/2 x 1 inch) 60 ship counters (3/4 x 2 inch) which must be cut-out by the player 1 map Rule book Scenario book Aircraft/ship data cards Player aids "Whistling Death" is long OOP, but you can get a taste of early Pacific air battles with "Tiger Wings." The Kickstarter Ended with a FABULOUS load of extra Stretch Goals-- far more than a retail/store edition can hold. You can still get lots of extra content with a Late Pledge (for a limited time). https://www.atomagazine.com/Details.cfm?ProdID=198
