I read: "Your plane's special damages: 1 gun destroyed", but my plane has "0f" guns.

Now, I think that is possible that I had "1 gun destroyed" blue chit twice (rotten luck), but in this case it should be listed under special damage, shouldn't it?

Or it is a bug and I should have "1f" instead?


This has happened to me before. I got 2 gun destroyed chits in the same turn and it only shows 1 gun destroyed under special damages. I think that this is a bug.


There do seem to be several situations where the AI makes some curious decisions on damage like the one noted where getting 2 'loss of a gun' chits has the result of loosing only one MG. Another is 'Rudder Jambs' where you get a Left AND a Right Turn, the AI chooses one of these and I'm not sure how. I think the only way you loose both MGs is to draw the chit on seperate moves. I could live with either way (both guns getting knocked out on the same turn would ramp up the "Luck Factor" when playing Advanced and some would probably object).
Oooh good point (& excellent observation) & the rudder deal is a perfect example. Even better is the 'MG loss' point that you made (in regards to seperate turns)
-I bet your right.

There has to be a random element inserted otherwise you cannot determine between left and right rudder jams. I have looked but it does just seem random - in the box game it was whichever you got first. If this random element wasn't there then the game would hang as it couldn't let you do any move other than straight ahead.....

As for the guns I too have lost one on occassion without noticing, and again put that down to the number of games I have on the go. BUT - and it would be bigger if I could - BUT I know I don't miss the number of jammed guns I get without notification. This hasn't happened in a little while so may have been fixed, BUT this annoys me so much

In fact

Then again I'm pretty irritating at times too
