WHAT IS AERODROME® 1.1? Aerodrome® 1.1 is a simple, easy-to-learn, fun-to-play
game of aerial combat in World War I. With simple yet elegant rules, players "fly" colorful models of WWI aircraft, using
wooden "cockpit" control panels to determine maneuvers and telescoping poles to simulate multiple altitude levels, and each
side attempts to shoot down the aircraft of the other side. A perennial favorite at conventions, hundreds of convention
attendees, club members and individuals have enjoyed playing Aerodrome® 1.1 since 1994; the game is played by groups
around the U.S., as well as in England, France, Hong Kong, and Brazil. Aerodrome® 1.1 has won numerous awards,
both in the U.S. and England. WHERE CAN I PLAY AERODROME® 1.1? Aerodrome® 1.1
is a game, not a complex simulation; it's simple enough that you can learn to play, on your own, from the rules (although
you will need other equipment to play in addition to the rules!). Copies of the Aerodrome® 1.1 rules, as well as
other equipment for playing Aerodome® 1.1, may be ordered from The London War Room (in Mississippi) and RLBPS Miniatures
