About this game

Fighter Command: The Battle of Britain is a turn-based strategy game depicting the 1940 clash between the British RAF and German Luftwaffe.

Players can command either air force. The German side seeks to strike British airbases, radar stations, and industrial centers to weaken Britain’s aircraft assets, while the Allies defend against incoming German forces and attempt to destroy them before they reach their targets.

Command and Intelligence

Each day provides weather, intelligence, and readiness reports, along with charts detailing squadron strength, losses, morale, and experience. A map of southern England supports the allocation of aircraft and targets.
