List
These rule operate in three dimensions
while only physically using two, height being indicated beside an aircraft.
Weapon effectiveness is taken into account, and the skill of your aircrew is
paramount. This is varied by nation and period to get the right feel for the
game. The system also caters for game balance to ensure that no game is a
walkover. There are simple rules for ammunition expenditure, Flak, Bombing,
Night Actions, etc.
The rules are simple enough for a
player to pick up the fundamentals quickly, and to control several aircraft.
Experience has shown that a players can handle about 4 planes with ease.
There are a number of optional rules
to make life even more exciting for the unwary, introducing new complexities
into the game, as well as offering some emerging technologies.
While the rules are quite short, they
are supplemented by introductory data with over 200 selected aircraft from
the main theatres of World War Two. Players will be able to see the
differences caused by new designs and trying to stuff more into an old
design.
NOTE regarding aircraft data.
The data for the aircraft in Scramble has
been extensively updated and we have re-examined some of the fundamental
numbers. As far as possible the base line aircraft have been kept unchanged
(Spitfire I, Hurricane I, Me 109 E4). Bombers and other aircraft carrying
payloads will be found to change subtly and any of these changes is
reflected in new points costs.
