Clearly I have miscalculated plane range so I will edit my post in order that everyone has enough fuel, but the post still stands.<br/><br/>Perhaps Ramster, if his post addresses the range issue will edit his, and we'll continue on.<br/><br/>I'm wondering how zeppelin owners ever hire mercenaries if they don't know how good they are? I may as well send a blind man to buy me a second hand car. The pilots need to demonstrate to Hedy that they are worth hiring and so far they've only done the opposite!<br/><br/>EDIT: Okay, post edited to remove references to a late hour and darkness and to put this navigation exercise within everyone's range. I was unaware of the short ranges of these planes, but please consider the post now to be what she says.<br/><br/>I disagree that any plane flying alone would just be randomnly attacked. I don't consider this game world to be a war zone like WWI and WW2 had war zones, I think in the PC game which I played there was plenty of peaceful flying since characters flew alone often to race meets, rendezvous and such.<br/><br/>If people don't fly alone we'll just have to do this five times so that everyone can demonstrate navigational skills and that is too boring to contemplate.<br/><br/>This second mission can all be over in one GM post I think, no need for us to make it a big issue like the first one was, it just needs to be done correctly.
