@SS:
IL or anybody else. Is the new game board map identical to IL’s 3’ x 6’ map ?
Ya, I should have been a bit more clear… I know IL has an AA50 map, which was the gist of my query. Three things need to be looked at… #1: territories/borders the same or not, #2: territory values the same or not, #3: the “number assignment” of territories the same or not… ie: important if the chart says “put 3 tanks in territory 24” and if territory 24 used to be land but is now sea, that could be problematic… so all three need to be compared.
If the map is literally just a reprint of the original, than hooray, we can just use IL’s old AA50 map… but if it’s not… well I guess we all know what would need to happen next.

the map is the same except for one replaced china symbol in a Japanese controlled area

I can live with that.

Looks like 2 Japanese-occupied Chinese territories changed roundels (Kiangsu and Manchuria).

I’m slightly confused… does the new AA50 map have China controlling more territory than the original, or Japan controlling more territory than the original?
Either way you slice it, looking at all these pictures and referring to what I mentioned about not really having the budget to get this personally till after Christmas… well… I’m starting to think my kids don’t really need any Christmas presents… bunch of slackers have been free-loading off me their whole lives!
-
For me even if its 2 territories either way. I have the map already and 4000 pieces. Wolf you need pieces I can swing a deal with you so your kids GET those Christmas Presents !
-
It looks like they placed Chinese roundels on originally controlled Chinese territories but that Japan starts the game with them like in G-40.
-
Japanese controlled Chinese territories have a Chinese roundel, so if any of the Big Three recapture them, they’re returned to China instead of being occupied by an ally.

Oh I get it… does Russian territory that is controlled by Germany at the start of the game have Russian emblems in them so something like the US or UK doesn’t end up controlling the Ukraine?
