I made up some play aids for my players for our second session. I’m going to print them off on card stock and hand them out to each of them to keep track of their PO-2’s.

I’d appreciate any feedback you might have.

I’ve got a couple questions about the Attack Run move that I am a little confused about.

Planes relying on your leadership can choose which miss condition they would prefer.

Does this refer for planes covering you as Vedomaya specifically? Otherwise I don’t know how it applies.

After an Attack Run by a Leader, if other pilots decide to make an additional Attack Run they enjoy +1 forward.

I assume the only time you would ask for a follow up Attack Run is if the first payload didn’t connect or the mission requires more than one target be eliminated, is that correct?

Also, I think I may have handled our Night Mission incorrectly last night. We did B mission from Duty Station One.

B: Under the tutelage of major Marina Raskova herself, a Night flying exercise culminating in a live bomb attack on targets arranged on either bank of the Tsna River, simulating a bridge. Potential Enemy Fire is damage from ordinance dropped too low.

Given that the targets can offer no resistance, an Attack Run wouldn’t have been necessary? I asked for one but didn’t read the rule about no roll being needed until this morning. If that is the case, Potential Enemy Fire would only come from a less than successful Wayfind check?

Thanks. 🙂

I’m very excited that very soon I’ll get to finally try out Night Witches! I’ve assembled a local team of amazing lady gamers who will boldly take to the night skies!

The only problem is that I got a little over-zealous in my recruitment. I invited six players assuming 1 or 2 would either not be available or interested, I was wrong. So now I am in the unique situation of running a very large NW group. Does anyone have experience with that big a group, or have any ideas on how to best handle it?

I thought about pairing them up so that each session they have a partner in scenes, allowing me to make my way around the group quickly enough that they don’t have to wait around much for spotlight. (It also happens the players attending fit into pairs of old friends really nicely and it might be a cool meta-comfort level for them with the newer players)

Also, I gotta say, I’ve finally started to fully read the core book and I am super amazed! The moves are incredible once I started to see how they all fit together. I am soooo excited to see this in play.
