Is your understanding of Blood Red Skies rather zero? Then we have just the thing for you!
Many hobby veterans know Andy Chambers from earlier days. He wrote for White Dwarf and worked as a game developer for Games Workshop. Andy was involved in the 3rd and 4th editions of Warhammer 40k and Battlefleet Gothic, and wrote the legendary Skaven army book for the 4th edition of Warhammer Fantasy. He left Games Workshop shortly before the release of the 4th edition of Warhammer 40k, but continued to work as a game developer.
Flying tabletop games in the distant galaxies of the future now have a firm place in many wargamers' collections. Andy brings us back to Earth with the new system from Warlord Games - well, at least for refueling. He wrote the rules for Blood Red Skies!
The aerial game takes place in the airspace of World War II, thus expanding the range of historical systems. With up to six aircraft per side, you can fight for air supremacy!
Andy was not only involved in the development but also hosts the YouTube channel for the game. There you can watch detailed videos on game mechanics, tactics, and an interview with Andy. Definitely worth checking out!
TableTop Anarchy is another channel that, we think, offers interesting content about the game. There you can watch numerous unboxings and visit the flight school - another video series about game mechanics and tactics.
If you prefer to read something about Blood Red Skies instead of watching videos, we recommend the Trenchmonkeys' blog. In addition to unboxing the starter box, they have started posting painting tutorials.
Of course, you can find the boxes in the hangar of the Radaddel Fantasyshop! So go through the checklists, get your clearance, and take to the skies!
Update July 23, 2018!
Warlord Games provides the German rules for Blood Red Skies as a PDF, and it's free. You can find them with the Blood Red Skies base box under additional information.
Thanks for the translation.
