- Blood Red skies is a tabletop miniatures game where you command formations of fighter aircraft in battle. Action in the game is fast-paced with six or more Planes per side, against another opponent creating a thrilling dogfight can be fought in forty-five minutes or less.
- Extra rules can be introduced to include the play cards that really bring your fighter aircraft to life, allowing you to fly them just as they would have been by the ACE's of WWII!
- Tilting base of the aircraft shows the status as advantaged, neutral or disadvantaged of your airplane throughout the game and could make all the difference during a dogfight!
- Mix and match different battles to create historical air combat or create your own epic scenarios.
- Ready to play out of the box with snap together pieces and stickers, but the construction and painting of the models and watching them come to life are just as much fun as the game itself!
