I created a rule deck, its very detailed, yet very easy to understand, things are broken down into simple stages. Even if you don’t print the deck, you can read it.

Thanks for the replies. The chips in question have ‘fine’ ridges, like the normal chips, not the ‘coarse’ ridges as found in 1914 and 1942.2. I was originally reluctant to put them in the mix with my other chips that I know fit together, but I suppose if I’m not building skyscraper stacks, it’ll be fine. :wink:

Thanks again for all of the help.

@pfc_pander:

… I though you might be able to move your fighter during non-com to the sea zone that the carrier will be built in but wasn’t sure if that’s allowed.

…

1942 2nd edition and/or anniversary

It is allowed in both games.

What I used to do, as a high school girl, was to use a white chip under the control marker to signify it made it past the end of the chart once.

Now a days, I use a mapping utility even for face to face games. No limit on pieces, on chips or on money! (Also it’s set up instantly and you don’t have to put it away when you’re too drunk to see straight!)

Ooh, is there anybody interested in taking Don’s essays and writing updates to them for AAR. Just go point by point and analyze whether it is still valid (or not) in AAR and why.

Can you attach a saved game file here? Save it just before combat, and make sure you describe the behaviour in detail (ie. which battle is screwing up, which round, what the rolls were, what you think they should have been, etc.)

If this is the old CD game, what may help is disconnecting from the internet. That happened to me (loading up for one player) but when I disconnected the ethernet cable, it worked fine. By the way, if the thing does start working, SAVE FREQUENTLY!

ONLY attacking subs have first strike capabilities, although I’m not sure whether it lasts beyond the first round. I’ve always played that first strike is always on.
