Is Downtown inspired by GTGs Rolling Thunder game?
Downtown may superficially resemble Stephen F. Weiss s game, published by Group Three Games back in the 80s, but it s really a whole different animal. Weiss s wargame is a dogfight game. Its operational map is a simple scenario generator for setting up dogfights and is not really a concerted effort at a large-scale air game. Downtown is the game I imagined Rolling Thunder to be before I opened the box.
