Thank you for sending the map to my printer. I have been testing scenarios out with my A&A using my 1942 second edition. I just have been using sticky note paper to mark my Italian territories. I used the game pieces from my anniversary addition for the Italian pieces. I also added have tracks: cost is IPC 5. Attack 2, defend 2 as tanks cost 6 IPC in this version. Its nice to spend 5 IPC on an actual unit other than an AA gun. No artillery bonus on half track in this version
I also added the recruitment center from zombies.
Please see the chart below
MOBILIZATION ZONE
UNIT STATS COST MOVE ATTACK DEFENSE
LAND UNITS
INFANTRY 3 1 1 2
ARTILLERY 4 1 2 2
HALF TRACK 5 2 2 2
TANK 6 2 3 3
ANTIAIRCRAFT ARTILLERY 5 1 0 1
RECRUITMENT CENTER 10 0 0 0
INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX 15 0 0 0

@LHoffman was thinking the same…even though the advantage is called Most Powerful Battleships in the Revised Ed… changed it… also the Flying boats its now Sub-Hunters, makes more sense as I definitely wanted a de Havilland tactical bomber on the image… :)
Nice! I was trying to wrap my head around a Hornet or Mosquito on a Flying Boats card and understood your intent, but I think what you changed to works better overall.
Again, great set of cards. I followed Young Grasshopper’s Delta card deck with great interest a few years ago and have been collecting art to create my own at some point. But this set is very simple, is based in established A&A legacy and the aesthetic matches perfectly with the A&A brand.
The German Advanced Research card is genius, both in the illustration chosen and the reasoning behind the card. Easily my favorite.
Thanks, glad you like it ;) I believe the biggest challenge was with the Free French cards and a getting a dynamic mechanism for these. The idea for the Flying boats card was to have a Short Sunderland aircraft on the image but the British A&A tactical bomber is a Mosquito… so went for a pic of this one instead…but the title doesnt match… I think sub-hunters is a broader term and makes more sense altogether. Otherwise… this would be the card:

Just putzin.

A ton of options out there.
-
Like the Bismark idea. As a matter of fact, the whole “event” type house rule is pretty sweet.
-
Giving the Bismarck-class equivalency with the Yamato’s certainly isn’t accurate. And IMO cheapens an exclusive NA to Japan - if that is part of your game.
-
No I don’t have either NA battleships for Germany or Japan. I was just playing around but if I did then I would differently get a Yamo card in game.
-
Be like Bismarck takes 3 hits and Yamo A D +1 plus takes 3 hits
-
@SS-GEN Ah, gotcha. That is reasonable.
-
Well using the template the aesthetic of going outside the text boxes is really ugly. We need people to make alot more cards including alot more Italian ones and about a dozen minimum for each side in global 40. Im working on 1914 cards using that template. But please make them INSIDE THE TEXT BOX PLEASE.
-
You talking to me IL ?
-
Well in general no, but that Bismarck thing looks terrible’
-
Happy happy happy. It was just a quick design and show. Not final or official.
Your chill pills are getting weak again. :relaxed: -
@SS-GEN I have found when posting artwork that people don’t what the word mock-up/rough/prototype/draft/… mean.
They think everything is final art or written in stone.:white_frowning_face:

12 is too much for most powers… You’ll end up with non sense “National Advantages”… Even more difficult for the Italians… ;)

12 cards each would be good. But best to use up to four only to start with. ( This can be adjusted over time ) List the 12 cards on a chart 1-12 for each country.
At start of turn each country rolls 4 D12’s. The numbers you roll will match to the numbers on the chart you made. Then each country receives those 4 NA’s at start of game. In my game I only have 2 per country because Its going to also depend on the strength of the NA’s you have. Some of mine are just as good as having tech. You will need to adjust the strength of cards to in time.
Using these NA’s will spice up your game with nice small twists. I’ve been using them in my game now for 2 years.Here’s another designed card I made for my 3 Island group NO s in game. I’m not computer friendly and just need to figure out how to spread pic in top of card to have same size color around pic.
Easy IL !

I figured it out. Another card. Still needs a picture tweak. Anyway on my way now to pick up my 76 cards from printer. Will post pics later of them.

What I mean is, take the Revised Edition for example…6 NAs for each power, and you already end up with Banzai Attacks and Non-Aggression Treaty to fill up the total…
“6. Banzai Attacks
When you begin an attack with only infantry, all those infantry attack on a 2. This also applies to any amphibious assault in which your attacking land units consist of only infantry.”How come this is a National Advantage…? Never ever was a story of success with these attacks…
The same for the Non-Aggression Treaty… 4 Infantry for free just like that…
Now imagine squeezing 12 NAs… you’ll end up with anything but NAs imo
-
Well I do only have the 6 NA from Revised but tweaked. So your saying with Banzi attacks and 4 free Russian NAs should be in game as normal and not a NA and just add 2 more new ones ?
-
@SS-GEN No, Im saying these are no NAs at all… Historically Banzai attacks were never successful… why give a 2 attack value to infantry?! My point is, you might get maybe 12 NAs for Germany but not for Japan or Russia for example without creating non sense NAs…
