I saw your post sitting so long I registered to give you a few pointers on maps. Most if not all the WotC map packs are themed in some way. Originally they were 2" hexes but were changed some time ago. The map packs you mentioned are themed as follows: North Africa - 3 Desert maps and on reverse side 3 jungle maps. Eastern Front - 3 town/factory maps and on the reverse side 3 Russian steppes maps. There are two starters, the one in the cardboard box is the old one and contains 12mm mini’s and 2" hex maps. the new starter is in a blister pack and has 15mm mini’s and 3" hex maps. The maps in the new starter are mixed forest/hills/clear. The rules and revised cards are downloadable through the WotC site.
Noob question - aircraft movement.

Sorry, Couldn’t find this answer anywhere.
I just got my first aircraft, and the rules leave me guessing.
So…… I deploy my aircraft in flight phase, attack in attack phase, and apply casualties.
What do I do in turn 2? Turn 3? Do I get to re-deploy anywhere valid as in my first flight phase? (Assuming I wasn’t destroyed or disrupted).
BTW, I play with my 7 year old, and so far he is undefeated after 8 skirmishes… little !#$%*!! :-P

You deploy in the “Flight” phase and the do aircraft attack in the “Airstrike” phase. You pull the aircraft off the board at the end of the turn. You can redploy him next turn unless he’s disrupted or destroyed.

Thanks! That’s what it seemed like, it just doesn’t say so explicitly.
