This is a game of aerial combat with WWII aircraft of various nations fought on a hexagonal map. Players take turns determining initiative, moving their aircraft, and attacking opponents. Victory is determined player elimination or victory point total comparisons. Optional rules allow for clouds, flak fields, barrage balloons, and even night combat.
The game also comes with a conversion appendix allowing the aircraft to be used with the Axis & Allies Miniatures Land Game.
