INTRODUCTIONImagine if Orville and Wilbur Wright did not successfully fly their powered airplane in 1903, but instead ten years later. In such an alternate history there would be no effective combat airplanes. Commitments in military research and industrial production might have instead, focused on the Zeppelin as a weapon carrier. This game provides a tactical simulation of such Zeppelin warfare. The Ships Zeppelins as depicted in this game, have three statistics; Movement Points, Cargo Slots and an amount of Gas, all measured in arbitrary units. Movement Points are outlined below. They determine the maximum distance a Zeppelin can travel in a turn. Cargo Slots hold Weapons, Ammunition, Personnel and possibly other items as may be required by a given scenario. Gas determines your Zeppelin's buoyancy - if you lose all of your Gas, you plummet to the ground! Each Zeppelin in your fleet requires the expenditure of Resource Points, and must be further equipped with various items at a further cost in Resource Points.

Make Repairs INITIATIVE- initiative is determined by a simple die with the highest roll winning the initiative. All ties are re-rolled. - initiative is determined for all players before movement occurs. - the player with initiative chooses whether he will move first or last. - if he chooses to move last, then initiative takes place in the reverse order of the rolls, with the lowest roller playing first, then the next lower and so on. - if he choose to move first, then initiative takes place with the initiative winner moving first, then the next highest roll moving and so forth. - on subsequent turns, a die roll is made as usual, however the winner of initiative in the previous turn determines if initiative will take place high to low or low to high. MOVEMENT- in each turn a Zeppelin can increase or decrease speed, changing facing (direction) gain or lose altitude - Zeppelins have a maximum number of Movement Points, which determines how many hexes the Zeppelin can move. - a Zeppelin can never move more than it's maximum Movement Points in "Orders" (see 'Winds' below) - a Zeppelin may be ordered to move zero in which case it will remain in place - 1 Movement Point is expended to change direction my one hex face; Zeppelins will always face a hex side - 1 Movement Point is expended for each step of altitude gained or lost - there are 10 steps of altitude, with '0' being ground level - Zeppelins will also lose altitude when they start losing Gas - after Combat Orders are received, all Zeppelins are subjected to a randomized Wind Effect Directory: games games -> Sunday, September 10, 2006 games -> Script master of ceremonies games -> Introduction to Using Games in Education: a guide for Teachers and Parents games -> Assistant Professor University of Central Florida games -> Color code games -> 1 Introduction 1 Aims Page 5-7 games -> M new icrosoft® Age of Empires Collectors Pack games -> Moves in Mind: The Psychology of Board Games Download 8.66 Mb.
