Success to the RAF!

Last night was my first real game of DoW (as opposed to me just moving two planes around the mat and trying to outthink myself - more of a rules learning exercise).

In any case, my opponent (who is also a beginner) and I used the basic rules, nothing new. I flew two Hurricanes, my opponent a Messerschmitt and a Dewointe D.520. Short story is I won having shot down the D.520 and the Messerschmitt found itself flying off the board. I lost one Hurricane that was shot full of holes but still flying as it went off the board right before the Bf-109.

Awesome game! We're both hooked. The conversation quickly moved to buying models and such. Which brings me to a question. Any good 1/200 airplane model companies out there? I'm certainly going to grab some WoW Spitfires, but I'd also like some Hurricanes... any suggestions? Thanks!

You can try www.navigatorminiatures.com/prodtype.asp or www.helmet-aircraft-200.co.uk/ or www.skytrex.com/

...and if you find a source that has an Italian Freccia in 1:200, you're required to tell me!

www.skytrex.com/ The Action 1/200 serie should be enough for you, they have a lot of planes. The price varies from £5:50 (most small fighters like the Hawker Hurricane and Fw 190) to £15 (Wellington and Ju52). You should however order a bunch since the freight cost makes it rather expensive if you just buy a plane each.
