About the game

What is Buffalo Wings?

Buffalo Wings is a stand-alone game of tactical air combat over Finland in WWII from Against the Odds Magazine. It expands the Fighting Wings series of WWII air combat games designed by J.D. Webster and published by Clash of Arms Games. The game has been OOP for years, but an upgraded and updated version was finished on Kickstarter and is now being sent to backers. Unfortunately the reprint was a quick sell out as well. ATO Kickstarted another Fighting Wings “on ramp” game called Tiger Wings, on early WW2 combat in Asia and the Paxific. Quick note-- the Kickstarter brought in a ton of 'content' that won't all make it into the 'retail version.' You can still get all the extra content with a Late Pledge (for a limited time). https://www.atomagazine.com/Details.cfm?ProdID=198 LATE PLEDGE ENDS AFTER MARCH 18.
