Has anyone ever come up with a set of rules (aircraft stats and so on) for German Zeplins ?

Yes. Many years ago, in the late '80's, DROME ran an article with a set of rules for Zepps. The movement of the Z's was clumsy and slow, but the means of shooting them down was good. It needs modernizing and adapting for inclusion in the game.

They are Zeppelins, and there are only two GOOD ways to bring them down. Climb above them if you can, (a zeppelin dumping ballast can climb faster than ANY WW 1 aircraft) and drop cooper bombs on them, or hit them with lots of Le Pieur wing rockets!!!!

I'd like to see those as well. I have a wonderful book entitled "The Zeppelin in Combat" and was hoping to use some of the information in that book to create performance characteristics for different types of Zepps. Plus, the counters would look awesome!!
