Flakturm Friedrichshain: The Air Defense of Berlin

Description

Defend the capital of Nazi Germany against the Allied Strategic Air Offense. Game play is centered around your defense for 10 turns of Berlin via the 3 Flak Towers. This is simulated by placing 5 yellow discs on the radar plot by rolling dice to emplace them on the coordinates 1-5. This means using 2 colored dice, one for the X and Y axis. One placed you can reroll a placed yellow marker to try and form a more effective barrage pattern to increase the odds of shooting down more Allied Bombers. Upon moving it with a reroll, you turn the disc over to its dark side to show it has been moved. Once all discs have been moved, they will either fail to form any of the possible winning combinations or a winning combination has been formed, resulting in the destruction of Allied aircraft, ending the turn.
