I have this on one of the stands I built for BRS in 1/72 but don’t plan to do a whole squadron of them.   There’s a little more about it on my blog: https://paintingdistractions.wordpress.com/2020/04/15/ground-support/

I added a post on my first schwarm of 109s with some pictures.  I won’t try to post a link here as that didn’t seem to work last time.   But there are some thoughts on kits for Battle of Britain planes in 1/72 and pics (not great pics) of the 109s.

I put up a post on my blog about my first schwarm of 109s in 1/72 including some (poor) pics.  There are some thoughts about kits also.

Hope this posts.

Test post.  When I hit submit my previous post disappeared.  It showed up as having posted, but there is no post there.

Storage is kind of an issue. I imagine I could do it more efficiently, but I want to protect the planes. So I put 4 planes into an 14x14x6 box in foam with cutouts for the planes.

Blood Red Skies. I *think* there will be 8 109s, half a dozen Spitfires, and three Hurricanes.

I’m in Chicago, Steven. If you plan to come to Little Wars I’ll be running some games with my 1/72 planes.

I’m almost ready to play a 1/72 game and plan to put on a couple of games at Little Wars. I have 6 Spitfires and a Hurricane painted, adding decals as we speak. I have 4 109s that just need finishing touches with 4 more under construction. I’ve had bases made for them. I plan to just use 1.5 times the ranges to begin with and plan to play on a 6’x8′ surface (it’s what I have).

Great report. Sounds like it went really well.

[Claire]

Does anyone here have a copy yet? I’ve ordered one through the FLGS, but here in the States, it might be some time before I see it.

[Claire]

Is there a report on this anywhere?

[Claire]

It IS the end of the month. I notice that Air Strike is shown as available now. I don’t know how long before my FLGS here in the States has it, but I look forward to preview comments from others.

Are there beta stat cards for any other Italian planes?
Fiat G50
Fiat CR42

A friend and I are talking about doing a sandstorm campaign and he’s very interested in operating some Italian planes.

Awesome. Love to see the 1/72nd planes. I’m about 2 weeks away from being able to do some BRS games in 1/72. It took me awhile to figure out the flight stands but I think I’ve got them now. The Spitfires are in the paint shop. The 109s will be right behind them.

[Claire]

Ah, makes sense!
