Screaming Eagles is a jet fighter dogfight with a unique board that allows for some bizarre moves. Players control 1 or 2 fighters and try to shoot each other out of the sky. Movement direction is determined by card play, and movement distance is determined by die roll. When your fighter moves off the front edge of the board, it "loops" to the back of the board and continues. If you successfully position your jet behind an enemy, open fire with you cannon or a missile. Damage is assessed by a die roll, and multiple hits are needed to bring down a plane unless a(n un)lucky shot strikes the cockpit or fuel tank. This is simple game that plays at jet speed!
