We'll fly tonight. During the Second World War, a night bomber regiment composed exclusively of women was born. Born Soviet airwomen. These two hundred or so women and girls, who flew in obsolete biplanes and took off in the middle of the fields, very close to the front lines, attacked the German troops relentlessly for a thousand and one hundred nights in a row. When the bombs ran out, they dropped railway ties on the enemy. These airwomen saw themselves as sisters, united by bonds forged in blood and terror. The Red Army Air Force considered them as an infuriating second-rate female regiment. As for the Germans, they simply called them the Nachthexen: the witches of the night.
Night Witches is a role-playing game dedicated to women at war. As part of the 588th night bomber regiment, you will answer the call of the mother country at the time of peril. Will you do him justice by pounding fascist troops? Will you surpass your sexist classmates despite discrimination and sabotage? Are there limits to patriotism... or human resistance? Discover it by playing Night Witches!
Night Witches requires 3 to 5 players, who will take turns as game masters during the game. It can be played in a single two-hour session or it can be extended over an entire campaign that will follow the regiment until the end of the Second World War. In any case, it will allow you to live an epic story, full of heroism and sacrifice, in the image of the women who really participated in this conflict.
