Description Edit | History

Eighth Air Force extends Rise of the Luftwaffe to the second half of World War II: 1942-1945. It adds jets, altitude, heavy cannon and bombers. The rule book is designed to supersede Rise of the Luftwaffe's, with the additions peculiar to Eighth Air Force discreetly marked in the margins.

Of the remaining Down in Flames series, Zero! was published in 2001 and covers the Pacific theatre of the first half of WW2. Corsairs and Hellcats is the 4th game in the series (Pacific theatre, 1942-1945). Flying Circus (WW1) has been mentioned as a similar game set during WWI, but it is not listed on the GMT Games website.

2 Down in Flames non-carrier campaign sequence of play
The sequence of play of the campaigns in the DiF series is a bit confusing. This file gives a logical order to follow for non carrier campaign. Some houserules were added where the rules lacked.
