I vote for The Ludendorf Offensive. And I'm with Mr. Richeson on this one, if I get a Two Seater I will just declair my intent to escape after I get mission credit. I can say there will be opportunities for single and double on both sides.

I'd prefer a single seat fighter as well.

I just said I prefer not to fly one. I have flown them before and developed some good 2-seater pilots and observers over the years. I just prefer a regular fighter. 2-seaters have their advantages and disadvantages strategically. In the right hands they can be the deadliest plane on the board depending on the situation/altitude, etc.... I just personally don't like them. But I wouldn't escape combat just because I'm flying a 2-seater, I'd play the game out, especially in a campaign game played over 5 months where my team is going to need every point it can get to win.

Dawn Patrol has that certain random aspect to it where you never know what you are going to fly or what mission you might end up having to try to accomplish. I've been stuck with missions before where I knew I'd probably lose the pilot given the danger of the situation but I role-played the character and attempted to accomplish the mission as a pilot flying in WW1 undoubtedly would have done his best.
Anyways, I'm looking forward to another campaign the last couple I was in were a blast.

Since we seem to be leaning heavily to the Ludendorf, I am assuming everyone will be OK with British on the Allied side? If not, who wants French?

I could go British or French either way and be ok.

Since pilot development is kind of the main idea I'd probably rather go British because I already have a few great French pilots and my British roster isn't as strong as it once was.

Wayne and Garrett and I are in. Wyatt is a possible but I wouldn't count on it.

I'd anticipate somewhere in the neighborhood of 8-10 players which is a healthy gaming day. I'm figuring with 3 Richesons, 4 Morgans (if Angie plays), Rick and Stephen that would be 9 players. Add Ethan and/or Sierra and we're solidly at 10-11. Not sure if Ian is coming but I sent him a message on Facebook.
