Heroics and Ros Navwar line of 1:300 Miniature Aircraft
Heroics and Ros has long been a staple of my gaming diet. From the first pack of 1/300 ancient persians I bought for my wargame Armati, to the aircraft I now buy for my
fighter combat games. Heroics and Ros produce a great line of figs in its Navwar line that are perfect for your miniature airplane wargaming needs. Read the review of the collection I was able to obtain.
These figs are available at the online store over at Warbirdsinminiature.com.
I am starting with the American aircraft to begin with, and will post a few every day until they are completed. The items listed in bold are completed in the review section.

Got an Article or Tip for fellow gamers?

sopwith camel bi-plane to setting decals on an F-16, I hope that we can share that knowledge with each other. I have a load of tutorials and articles

Next Month - Heroics and Ros : The Americans
Finally got the images back from the photographer, and am already knee deep in writing reviews of the American aircraft in the
World War 2 line for Heroics and Ros Navwar miniature airplanes.
I received a large bin of aircraft and am working my way through them each. Hope to get the American Airplanes all up by mid March at teh latest.
Dawn Patrol by Mike Carr
The classic TSR game Dawn Patrol by Mike Carr. Dawn Patrol, originally titled Fight in the Skies, was conceived in the mind of a 15 year old Mike Carr after watching the classic movie starring George Pappard: Blue Max.
While the game is not designed for miniatures play, originally, it was played using 1/72 model aircraft. Since it is easily modified into a miniatures game, we shall include it in the scope of our
game reviews.
Scotia Grendle Collectair
Battle of Britain
Finally all of the 1/300 Aircraft for Battle of Britain by Scotia Grendel Productions have been completed. I was able to review most of the aircraft in this line. Read my review
of the group of aircraft that fought over the skies of England in 1940.
Warbirds in Miniature by Aerie Games
This review examines the Warbirds in Miniature game, along with the AireMats, AireStands, and Minaiture Airplanes offered at
www.warbirdsinminiature.com. They have an
online store with AireStands (the new love of my life), AireMats (absolutely beautiful), a rules and resource forum, and they have just launched a beta-test version of an online aircraft generator that will allow you to create your own personal
aircraft.
Canvas Eagles : War in the Skies by Eric Hotz
This review looks at a derivative of the Blue Max game compiled by Eric Hotz: Canvas Eagles. Canvas Eagels is a freely available world war I airplane miniatures game that expands and improves upon the basics of the Blue Max system.
Blue Max by GDW
Let's look at a classic game from 1983: Blue Max Dogfights over France, as well as its next iteration Blue Max Miniatures Rules (1995 Allan Wright).
Blue Max has got to be one of the BEST aircraft games of all time. When it came out, it had a couple of really neat innovations that are still talked about and used in games today.
