Description
"Foxbat & Phantom" is a wargame simulation of tactical aerial combat in the 1970's. The game is basically a two player game but it can be modified to accommodate any number of players. Each player manipulates his aircraft on a grid which simulates air space. 255 counters.

This game places two sides in a jet (era) dogfight. Each player starts with up to 4 planes, chosen from 14 different types available. One side are the 'Intruders'. the other 'Interceptors'. Each turn represents 30 seconds of real time. There are a variety of missions and you may use whichever aircraft you want, so that you can guage the different performance capabilities of each craft. This is an old-fashioned wargame and has been superceded by much more realistic (although also much more complicated) games, but if you like the theme and you want a quick, 'fun' wargame, this is ideal.

Thanks Holden. One of the few jet-based games I still play. Modern Air War was just way too in depth but this one hit the spot for realism vs playability for me. Same for Spitfire in the WW II era.

Very nice. And the audio on your teaser video is a favorite of mine, two F-14s shooting down two MiG-23s in 1989. I was on a different carrier at the time but this spread fast in the community.
