This is a neat little indie game on steam. Reminds me of Eagle Day to Bombing the Reich, albeit, with much less detail. I've only got a few minutes in so far, but a diverse list of targets, a nice range of aircraft to fight with and the ability to plan reconnaissance, fighter sweeps and bombing missions.

Looks like it shares a lot of design ideas with my favourite solo board game, B-17 Flying Fortress Leader.

Let us know how it plays and if it'll be fun long term, please.

Design is interesting, looks pretty unique.

That does look intriguing. Definitely worth following.

There's and old game from HPS Studios called Defending the Reich in which you control RAF Bomber Command during the night raids on Germany (or you can play as the Luftwaffe Nachtjaeger commander).  It looks somewhat similar to that game.

Seems like some folks having issues crashing although developer seems to be be responsive.  I'll probably wait a little bit, but will eventually get it a shot.

I may have missed it on the Steam page but are night fighters represented in this game?

Good to hear

Can it be played from either side?
Are there multiple start dates?

No. US only.
Yes. 1942, 1943 or 1944.
