A Wing and a Prayer - Bombing the Reich

[David Heath]

A Wing and a Prayer is a game designed by Erik von Rossing where you, the player, assumes the role of a Commander of a Squadron of Bombers of the USAAF 8th Bomber Wing or the German Luftwaffe during World War II. Your goal is either to protect the Fatherland against the Allied bombings or to bring Germany to its knees. Either way, it’s going to to take a wing and a prayer to complete.

What is the expected release date for "A Wing and and Prayer"? I'm very interested in this game, but I've been waiting five years for what is now called "Heroes of North Africa", so I'm VERY hesitant to order. Mark Brownell

Hi Mark,

Fair comment, Heroes of North Africa was already promised before I purchased LnLP and if it were up to me, this would never have been offered so early. At this point in history, it's my problem, and if you have looked at any of the new LnLT, it will show the efforts being put into the games the I am publishing. The game is currently in printing and will be available soon. You will NOT find A Wing and A Prayer available for pre-order until I have all the items ready to go. We are shooting for an Origins or WBC Release.

Thank you David. I'll look forward to the pre-order announcement. Mark

Hi Everyone,

We will have advance copies of A Wing and a Prayer available at Origins next week. We have also added some pictures of the game to our media section. These pictures are from my desk so not 100% the best.

We will also have designer Erik von Rossing with us at Origins so if you have the time stop by our booth we love to meet you.

Just checked the website for any update on Heroes of North Africa. I can't find the game listed. When I do a search for Heroes of North Africa,
I receive a message of no information for that title. ???????? I thought it was being printed and would finally be released very soon. What is the status? Thank you. Mark

Hi Mark,

Yes, this is explained here about the new Pre-order and Loyalty systems at LnLP.

It does not clarify anything about years old pre-orders and in particular HoNA status.

Hi Alessandro,

Here is my earlier post to Mark,

Got it David, thank you. It would be nice to optimize the shipping and get both games at once.. difficult to manage I suppose.

[David Heath]

Yes it is at the printers and we should have it soon.

David,
Could the rules get posted? If not a general post, how about those of us who pre-ordered? Need to train my crews before heading to the ETO.
Thanks, Rich

Hi Rich,

I can't post them at this time just to many things going on but we will get to it as soon as I can.

Is there any chance that "Heroes of North Africa" and "A Wing and a Prayer" will be available for this Christmas? Thank you. Mark B.

 

[David Heath]

Hi Mark,

No, I don't think the shipments will be here before Christmas.

Been kinda quiet here on A Wing and a Prayer. Is this one being released along with all the LnLT games, or is it coming later this year?
