SAREX....the boardgame

[jpizzo127]

Thanks for all the funny responces.

I tested out the program at our last meeting and it was considered a big success by the squadron who thoroughly enjoyed the tabletop with some extra planning levels.

If anyone is interested in doing this at your squadron, all you need are a few things you can find at Office Depot.

Send me a message and I'll be happy to send you the instructions.

"Aircrew can't find the POH for their plane. Lose two sorties."

Aircrews asks what a POH is?  Lose next turn.

"Aircrew can't find the POH for their plane. Lose two sorties."

Aircrews asks what a POH is? Lose next turn. MP loses MP qual and gets sent home.

Fixed that for you.

Check out the new version.  It could happen.  Really. 

(Actually I did a mission last month with 14 Air and 4 Ground sorties in one day.  Mission closed out 2 days later, so it really can happen )

Comm Unit Leader more interested in playing with radios than in actually communicating your message to anyone.  Lose 1 turn.

MROs show up to help the CUL...free spin.

Many years ago, a gent in MA Wing wrote a DOS-based game called Squadron Commander or something, and it was a fun game to play but once you realized that the game was weighted heavily in the favor of ES, it became tremendously easy to beat it.  If you always scheduled an hour+ of ES training during your unit meetings (ie. "the cool stuff"), and kept the formations, inspections and admin time low (ie. "the BS"), then you did really well.



"IC leaves keys to HQ building at home,  roll 1D4 and wait this number of turns for Wing HQ staffer with keys to show up and let everybody in."

No need to make it. I've done all the work.

Just send me your e-mail and I will send you the instructions and rules, etc.

Now I want to make one for my EOC.

CDC-EOC sends daily report in wrong format, lose 2 turns converting into your agency's standards.

"IC leaves keys to HQ building at home,  roll 1D4 and wait this number of turns for Wing HQ staffer with keys to show up and let everybody in."

Pilot leaves in second plane with only set of keys for first plane in pocket.  Go directly to 000.
