1940’s WWII Bomber Command Game, England

Description

“The Nazis entered this war under the rather childish delusion that they were going to bomb everyone else, and nobody was going to bomb them. At Rotterdam, London, Warsaw, and half a hundred other places, they put their rather naive theory into operation. They sowed the wind, and now they are going to reap the whirlwind.”  Sir Arthur ‘Bomber’ Harris.

Here’s a very rare, original World War 2 Game.  A period piece, themed on R.A.F. Bomber Command raids over occupied Europe.  Each player attempts to fly four Fighters / Bombers to Berlin and return safely.  The first player to successfully return to dear old Blighty with all four planes, is the winner.  This simple game is in a tired condition with some marking  as shown, but this can be forgiven due to its rarity and historical significance.  Game instructions are printed on the back of the board.  This listing is for the game board only (as originally supplied), but could easily be played with a few tokens and a standard d6 dice.
