Wings of Glory: World War 1 – Fokker D.VII is an expansion for Wings of Glory: WW1 Airplane Packs released in 2014 ages 13 and up. Its main mechanics are Simultaneous Action Selection and Simulation.
From the publisher: The Fokker D.VII was a German World War I fighter that quickly proved itself to be a formidable aircraft. The D.VII was noted for its high maneuverability and ability to climb at high angles of attack, its remarkably docile stall, and its reluctance to spin. It was flown by a number of famous German aces such as Hermann Göring, Gotthard Sachsenberg and Rudolf Stark. Designed to be used with the popular air combat game system created by Andrea Angiolino and Pier Giorgio Paglia, each WW1 Wings of Glory Airplane Pack is a ready-to-play model, painted and assembled, 100% compatible with any other WW1 Wings of Glory game product. In each pack you will find all you need to play with the airplane: a special base with gaming stats, a variable altitude flying stand, and a specific deck of maneuver cards. This is not a complete game.
The catalogue lists Wings of Glory: World War 1 – Fokker D.VII for ages 13 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone. Younger players can often join with help from an adult, so check the age guidance on your edition and consider your group’s experience with board games.
Wings of Glory: World War 1 – Fokker D.VII has a complexity rating of 2.0 out of 5 from BoardGameGeek players, which makes it a medium-light game.
