Table Air Combat: A6M5 Zero

Table Air Combat is a fast, simple air combat game that can be played on any flat surface. Each player has a flight of fighters, represented by two-sided counters. Aircraft counters move by means of curved “performance rulers” that represent the aircraft’s historical cornering ability and maximum speed. Each performance ruler is unique to each aircraft, and contains all the speed, cornering, and weapon information needed. TAC is designed for portability; The entire game can fit in a plastic bag. Even the largest battles can take place on a fast-food restaurant table.

This set contains the A6M5 Zero. The Zero has an unmatched cornering ability and powerful 20mm cannons. The A6M5 is the most-produced variant which has improved speed over its predecessors. It retains its cornering ability with a weight half that of its arch-rival, the F6F Hellcat.
