Orders of the Day
"The Battle of Britain is about to begin.
Members of the Royal Air Force,
the fate of generations lies in your hands."
When a German WWIl ace was asked what he and his
comrades needed to win the battle he replied,"A squadron
of Spitfires.”
All you need is one!Avalon Hills'Spitfire 40 microcomputer
game puts you in the cockpit of the airplane described as
'the best conventional defense fighter of the war."
With its 1,175 hp Rolls Royce engine,your Spitfire is
extremely quick and agile.So belt yourself in,for it's your
turn to circle the sky,maneuvering yourself into the best
position from which to lure the Luftwaffe pilots toward their final
earthward plunge.
Seat yourself before our controls,select a battle or simulator
scenario and your Spitfire 40 is ready to take off and tackle
the German Messerschmitt fighters.
And,just think...getting it up is only half the fun!
