About the game
In the Eagle Leader timeline, France maintained their unusual separation from NATO, but as the situation on the ground worsened, the French government felt compelled to intervene. While most of NATO’s Air Forces flew American aircraft, or at least used American weapons, the French had their own capable aerospace industry. This set adds 56 cards and 88 counters to your Eagle Leader game, including: 54 x Aircraft cards (Mirage F1C / Mirage IIIE / Mirage 2000C / SEPECAT Jaguar) 2 x Event cards 3 x Campaign sheets -description from publisher
