World in Flames, it's not a game, it's a hobby in a box!

Update - 18 November 2024! The 2024 print of the World in Flames the Collector's edition game and all its expansions (Divisions in Flames, Planes in Flames, Ships in Flames and Territories in Flames) is now available.

Due to a large increase in the printing charges and the reduction in the value of the Australian$ we will unfortunately have to increase the Australian$ price on release. However as a special intro offer we will keep the cost at the current Australian$ price until the new year.

Thank you for your support for our games.

Description

Planes in Flames the Collector's edition is Australian Design Group's latest and greatest WWII aircraft expansion to World in Flames.

Initially published in 1988 to great acclaim as the most beautiful counters in a  boardgame, now after another three decades and 25,000 copies later, we are proud to announce the most comprehensive, detailed and stunning collection of WWII aircraft anywhere on the planet.

Based on thousands of hours of research, and a 100,000 cell spreadsheet of aircraft specifications and production (of which the WiF aircraft Dedication extract is a very tiny part) Planes in Flames provides the most accurate data for all the combat aircraft of World War II (and then some).

Planes in Flames the Collector's edition includes every major (and many not so major) aircraft in world war II in spectacular detail including their historical full-colour camouflage patterns. Not only including the work horses of the war such as the Stukas, Spitfires and Mustangs,

Planes in Flames the Collector's edition also includes the esoteric (e.g. the Kikka and the MBR-2) as well as the improbables (e.g. the Ho-229 Bat and very optimistic P.13)

amongst many, many others.

Planes in Flames the Collector's edition has also dramatically expanded the scope of time such that units now span history from the early 30s to the mid 50s so that Planes in Flames is now playable with Patton in Flames and America in Flames as well as World in Flames.

Planes in Flames the Collector's edition includes 600 full-colour counters that turn World in Flames from a great into an unforgettable experience.

Pls note: this is not a complete game. Planes in Flames the Collector's edition requires World in Flames, Patton in Flames or America in Flames in order to be played.

Note to all immortals, I have increased the font of your names and initial on the aircraft and ships. For surface ships they went from approximately (in all cases there is some variance depending on the shape and size of the ship or plane I had to work with, basically the bigger the shape, the bigger the names or initials) 0.6 pt to 0.9 pt (and some like the Queens up to 2 pt), the CVs, from 0.8 to 1.2 pt, the names on aircraft wings from 1.6 pt to 2.2 pt and the initials on the fuselage from 2.3 pt to 3.2 pt. They will still be tiny but should now be more easily viewable with the naked eye on the aircraft at least.

If you are an immortal and purchase any World in Flames Collector's edition re-printed game or expansion you will receive an additional 10% off any discounted price (including the pre-release price) or 25% off the recommended retail price, whichever is greater. To receive your immortal discount, simply add a note in your cart on checkout saying "WiFCE immortal, discount please" and I will apply the discount when I process your order (ignore what shoppify charges, it is just a hold on your card, the amount is only debited after your order is processed by ADG).

Planes in Flames may also be purchased as part of the World in Flames Collector's edition Deluxe expansion set.
