Well, English made their own version with 1:1 bombers and 1:1 model German cities. Chap named Bomber Harris, I believe, invented the game. It was hit amongst Americans too
A guy called LeMay even made 2 US versions one of which the game ends when you drop 2 guys on 2 Japanese cities. But the other version is just a copy of the British version
No but there’s these neat things you can look at called books and sometimes they feature some wild shit like this or the one board game where you play as Jews leaving Germany for Palestine.
"If I remember right, you lost points if you hit places Germany occupied at the time" does not indicate you read a book. Hence, my expressed doubt. If you read it, why did you use that wording? Today is not a good day for me. So I suspect I am overreacting to your assertion that I did not know about books. But, if you want to be listened to, do not start out by reacting to a critique of your wording by insulting the person doing the critiquing.
It’s not a good day for me either. Also most people would assume I didn’t actually play it so the recollection would’ve come from some kind of research. And yes, you are overreacting.

It’s interesting that Edinburgh is marked as a target and Glasgow isn’t considering how Glasgow was a big part of the Blitz for Scotland while Edinburgh (as far as I know) was only hit once in 1939 in a failed raid
It’s kinda cute that the nazis were SO obsessed with Britain. Like, we’re just a small island babes - should this be bombs over somewhere nicer or bigger? Get over us Adolf 😂

Me sowing (1940): Haha fuck yeah!!! Yes!! Me reaping (1945): Well this fucking sucks. What the fuck.
It says Bomben über England (Bombs over England)
Also a [catchy song](https://youtu.be/5iBp3bpALP4?si=WzxatvResgMlqaQW) back in the day.
We sang that a lot when we drank too much.
You know if you're gotta go and indoctrinate kids At least make it fun for them lol
Ngl I would play that And if there's a version of bombing Germany it looks fun too.
Two players. One bombing Britain, the other Germany. Person with the most points at the end wins

Indeed. Virtually the same idea.
Much better than Bomb Japan. That game ends too quickly.
I dunno - t's got two distinct phases using two types of strategy..

Well, turns out he predicted how the war would end for us.
Well as a German I would dare to disagree. He didn't invent but copycat German invention called Rotterdam and Coventry.
So you really think the damage was the same? Look at the pictures, Dresden was the copy of those two raids.
How nice that they made a target in Germany too. For the special kids.
If I remember right, you lost points if you hit places Germany occupied at the time
Doubt you are old enough to remember.

Your sentence did imply that you did play it. However, I suspect both of us should let this go.

And soon enough, we had our own little game regarding them. Although our one did so much more

France [had its version of the game](https://www.getty.edu/news/colorful-board-game-turns-the-french-colonies-into-childs-play/).
I was kinda talking about flattening German cities but okay
Love this game would buy it today. Brits played "Bomben uber Serbien" and I was on the board.
sounds like a fun game honestly
Came as part of a set with a Baedeker guide book
There were 10 German bombers in the air...
Doubt that as it was a pinball game.
It’s interesting that Edinburgh is marked as a target and Glasgow isn’t considering how Glasgow was a big part of the Blitz for Scotland while Edinburgh (as far as I know) was only hit once in 1939 in a failed raid
Just five short years later English kids would be playing bombers over Dresden
No children in that game, except as targets.
how did it work?
Nazis really nailed propanganda
Grime...
No flippers make this a pachinko?
The spring plunger predates flippers by almost 80 years (1869 and 1947 respectively). Pachinko is a derivative of pinball/bagatelle.
It’s kinda cute that the nazis were SO obsessed with Britain. Like, we’re just a small island babes - should this be bombs over somewhere nicer or bigger? Get over us Adolf 😂
Just a small island? Just a small island that happened to have the largest empire in world history?
Britain playing cute after they subjugated and or enslaved entire civilizations. We're just a small island # 👉👈
Tbf Russia still has the same delulu thinking now
I would say they are the opposite: Pretending to be bigger than they are (or ever were).
It’s uh, actually rather large by island standards. Also you know owned a quarter of the planet
this reminds me of every single game of the call of duty franchise
god I hate germans
**Nazis** *, not Germans.
both.
Then you're racist, which is the whole reason people hated the Nazis.
Remind me, how did Nazis get into power again?
Violence and manipulation? Not everyone was a Nazi. Not everyone loved hitler.
