About The Falcon and the Gladiator: The Air War Over the Western Desert 1940 - February 1941 – A Set of Mini Campaigns and Scenarios for Bag the Hun and Check Your Six

The Falcon and the Gladiator: The Air War Over the Western Desert 1940 – February 1941 This supplement is a collection of 38 scenarios covering the first few months of the air war over North Africa. The scenarios cover a number of different types of actions including: level bombing, dive bombing, torpedo bombing and of course fighter actions. There are orders of battle present for the start of the war, Marshal Graziani's September Offensive and for Operation Compass. There is data on squadron changes and squadron movements during the period as well. There is a campaign system to enable you to play out your own campaign games. There is a brief potted history of the three covered campaigns. Also included is information on the progression of the corresponding ground campaigns. There are some supplemental rules included for the campaign that cover the poor performance of Italian fighter craft in the early days of the war, specifically dealing with poor ammunition quality control and lack of radios in their fighter aircraft. The scenarios are written to be fully compatible with both the Check Your Six rules and Bag the Hun.
