Anyone ever play this? God damn I did. Started as a WWI aerial combat game using picture books. Later versions showcased WWII, and it spawned games such as Lost Worlds, and the Battletech Combat Book Game. We, it's in Kickstarter for a new edition of its Powerhouse Series.

I never had this but I have played it a few times back in the day. I do have the X-Wing vs TIE Fighter version and the Luke Skywalker vs Darth Vader version (which has some unintentionally hilarious artwork).
I wonder if the structure of the chart allows them to create different aircraft books like they did with Lost World.

Originally, there were three sets of WWI dogfight books, featuring 6 different planes between them. Plus a "plane vs. balloon and ground crew" set. There was also a deluxe edition that allowed you to pick from dozens of different planes with mechanical differences, and even several pilots with different advantages. So, yes.
