Also…
All units are expendable, if the expenditure accomplishes something. Most units will be expended, but the challenge is to have them go in a way that they gave their money’s worth. Another important aspect of the game, which should be apparrent to a veteran player, or one with intelligence, is shielding of units. Some units (the more expensive ones) need to be protected by the less expensive ones. Infantry need to take hits for tanks, Destroyers and Cruisers should take hits for carriers… etc. Being able to scrape your expensive and better units out of a fight is essential for continuing operations and saving money. Make your enemy bleed more than you do.
Quality of the units
-
Is it me, or has anyone else noticed that the units seem to be a little “different” than the other games? They seem to either be a little lighter or made with a different type of plastic. I compared battleships between the AAR and AA50 and it just seems that they are smaller in AA50 or something. I noticed it the minute I picked one up.
-
They removed the Lead from the plastic this time. That makes them lighter
-
lol
Well if you dont like the unit quality you can always replace them with units from revised and pacific, except for Italy.
-
Except also for the cruisers, the Matildas, and the Chinese infantries

@Imperious:
They removed the Lead from the plastic this time. That makes them lighter
Did they actually remove anything from the plastic or is it just a new type of plastic or mold
-
Their is nothing to the claim. I have 6 copies with no differences from Revised except the new sculpts…
The dice are heavier and much better quality and the tokens and cardboard are thicker…pieces exactly the same not heavier.
-
Quality seems to be the same. Germans seem to be darker.
I have 3 sets of Revised units as well.
I now have 3 different shades of German pcs.
