Once a consensus is reached we will probably decide on a weapons revision I
think the weapons are the main problem we can fiddle with them and add this
idea.

Good idea:

Issue #4

Flyers

A. Their own phase
B. Integrated into movement/fire phase

As a side issue if you vote "A" vote again below:

A. Current rules
B. Alternate Incoming! rules
C. All new rules

Thanks.
