Did you ever play the boardgame version?
The was an edition in which they had printed different move sheets, grouping the moves in speed groups (it was mainly according to hexes moved), so that all stalls were speed 1, all moves moving 1 hex were speed 2 and so on (regardless of the last number of the move code.. i.e. 2s1 and 2s2 were both speed 2).


You are correct, the last number in the manuver was the furl used, not the speed. All stalls are speed 1 and all 1 hex moves are speed 2, etc.

I miss the altitude rules and spin chances.

• Same-hex Combat: An aircraft may fire at a target aircraft in the same hex if

1. both aircraft are facing in the same direction and

2. the fuel/speed number of the maneuver which the attacker performed in the movement step is lower than the fuel/speed number of the target’s maneuver.

Ghost, your point is being discussed before but nick would like the online version stick to the board game version as close as possible.

i.


Also the stall is listed as a different group of manoeuvres to the other 1 speed options (in my board game) - this suggests that they should be treated differently - again the reading of the game, but now has me confused...



The "same hex" rules on this site regards shooting in a stall situation or any situation similar at higher speeds are exactly the way they were written in the original board game (Blue Max). Rules that cover altitude, spinouts etc. are house rules, modifications of the original board game or other game systems that cover the same gaming subject.

Altitude IS NOT an "option" in the original game rules. It is on page 11 of the rule book. Also, Spins are not an option. An aircraft that takes wing or tail damage "in the previous combat step must roll one die:On a result of 5 or 6, the aircraft goes into a spin" Blue Max Rules,page 9, section 6.
