    The deployment sequence states:
    “The player with the least planes deploy First”
    As it’s a 3 spitfires Vs 2 fockewulfs scenario, this means Germans first.

    Then the deployment sequence says RCAF first then Luftwaffe.

    Which one is correct?

    In addition, what is the recommended size (diameter) of the target/flak emplacement marker? 40 mm as for planes?

    My own understanding for the target is that we should use the card figured in the scenario, but it’s just a guess.

    I suspect that those will be part of the airstrike supplement and that it will include some cards in it. Maybe some new tokens/zones.

    The player with the least planes should go first in this scenario.

    So, Luftwaffe it is.
    Thanks a lot Tom.

    For all target markers, I’d recommend using a poker chip or similar – if you want to sculpt something in 1/200, I’d love to see it. 😉

    HMS Warspite in 1/200?
    Easy math:
    Almost 200 m long -> 1 m long as a 1/200 playpiece
    Bigger than the board! No, she is the board! 😉
