Raiding Aces Raiders Campaign Pack (FW303A)

Raiding Aces Booklet Raiding Aces Raiders Campaign Pack (FW303A)
includes one Raiding Aces booklet, one Campaign Map, ten Raiding Aces Medal Pins, one erasable marker pen & one plastic tube carry case.

Raiding Aces is an escalation campaign that focuses on the special forces that fought in the Sahara from 1941-1943. It is all about the bold raids, sabotage missions, and convoy ‘bash ups’ fought in North Africa.

This is not your typical campaign. In the beginning you are a commander with a crazy notion of establishing a deep reconnaissance unit. Your superiors reluctantly agree to let you form your elite unit, but it will be up to you and your men to prove the value of your idea.

During the campaign you will write the story of your squadron as you fight through the sand dunes of the Sahara Desert and the wadis of the Mediterranean coastline. Your small force will grow and develop into an elite force ready for the final decisive battles in North Africa.
Burning Fort
Like Infantry Aces, Raiding Aces is an escalation campaign. An escalation campaign is different from a normal campaign where players use the same points throughout the campaign. Instead, an escalation campaign starts at a small point level and works its way up to higher levels at the beginning of each campaign turn.
A large raid
In the first turn you will command a 500-point force, then in the second campaign turn you will grow to 700 points and in the final turn you will get up to 900 points.
French raiders
The escalation format is ideal for new players to learn raiding basics without the intimidating presence of tanks. It is also a great opportunity for veteran players to start a new raiding  force with plenty of time between turns to get their men painted up and ready for combat.
