Bombers & Balloons
This expansion adds 2 new game pieces to the game, and you guessed them:
Bombers and Balloons! (and a surprise third, the Bomb token)
Bombers
Bombers use a larger token that can be found here. They use the same manoeuvre template as the other planes, making use of the extranious pieces at the front and back of the token.
Here are the special rules for the Bomber token:
- Instead of having the stats 4,3,3,2 to assign, they have 4,4,2,2
- Bombers are slower so their
must be 2
- Bombers may only spend 1 altitude when they dive
- The bomber can fire in a 360° arc if the enemy is within range 1-2 (forward arc is range 3)
- The bomber can "Drop Bombs"
Dropping Bombs
At the end on their manoeuvre, the bomber may Drop a Bomb, by placing the bomb token at the other end of the template they just used for their manoeuvre.
Excluding the turn it was dropped, if any player is within range 1 of the bomb at the end the round, they roll 4 dice and takes 1 damage on all 4-6 results.
Balloons
Balloons are a stationary object placed in the playing area before the game starts. Balloons are placed before planes.
During the game, if a player comes within range 1 of the balloon, that player immediatley rolls 4 dice and takes 1 damage on all 4-6 results.
It is up to the players to decide how many balloons each player may place before the game starts. They can be placed in any area the player chooses. Players take turns placing Balloons.
Missions
There are some scenarios for players to use with their Bombers and balloons, and they can be found here:
Mission 01 - The Errant Balloons
Mission 02 - The Bombers Escape
Cover
Bombers and Balloons both have one major thing in common... they are big!
If an attacker is shooting a target (any kind of target) they roll 1 less dice and may not re-roll any of their dice for this attack.
