Yea, China’s map seems promising. Let’s hope chinese rules and setup are better than in AA50. Let’s pray at least same level of rules than old AAPacific
Come on, Larry, you can do this time!
I love those neutral mongolians printed on map, and also the Dutch national markers :-)
No pics of the plastic ? Did you see the new halftracks and dive bombers ?
Only the map was available to view.
Well, did you try to bribe them ?
Every man has his cost
was the board fold out or seperate like AA50?

Larry has a sense of honor. That, or a fat wallet. :-D

The map was one big rolled out jpeg printed version.
Not sure how it will look as the finished product.
squirecam: How many men did you lose in the battle getting those pictures?
Lt Hanley will send you some replacements for your platoon.
Everyone should give him some +1’s on karma!

Mongolia is cool looking on the map.
Any Larry assured me the Flying Tigers are well protected with infantry this time.

Several did not make it back home. But the hill was taken nonetheless.
Larry has promised more info soon so stay tuned.
thanks krieg

we may have to dig some more on the ‘neutrality’ of mongolia, there appears to be a couple of territories in there with IPC values and INF silhouettes or setup numbers of INF. hmmmm…. Plus with it broken into multiple territories they may not be as neutral as previously believed…

That inf silhouette states how many pop up there if you attack Mongolia. If the japanese attack it, then the allies control Mongolia.
thanks for the clarification there, my eyes must be going or something….
interesting though then, if mongolia is playable, then perhaps spain, sweden, turkey, saudi arabia, and S. America may come into play on the larger scale game.
Very nice looking 8-)
Glad to see that it is large as a table.
Holy apple! This is going to be HUGE!!!
So do you think its a good idea to pre-prder. Or just wait when it comes out to order? (I will order it at coolgameinc.com

Starting IPC count
Austrailia: 9
Canada: 2
China: 10 (+6 burma road)
French: 2
Japan: 26
Netherlands: 11
Soviet Union: 9
United Kingdom: 18
United States: 17/57
Notes:
Japan should be at war with the US by turn 3. UK can attack japan earlier (turn 1) but that will not trigger the US at war setting. [You cant just get USA at 50 IPC by attacking with the british]
The russian territories are useless for AAP40 but will be used in the “global” version.
French Indo China is indeed French !
What do you mean by turn 3 Japan should be at war with the US, what in the game makes this a likly outcome?

Yep, seems confirmed that neutrals are in play this time. It can be interesting, specially in South America; if japs can attack there, they can create a big mess against USA, I doubt USA can ignore Japan this time, not only because this, but also because the bigger scope of the game. The game seems very promising indeed, in special for PBEM game (FTF will be more difficult, you could need a whole weekend to end a game)
I wonder wich country will join Spain if attacked by axis. I doubt Franco wanted join english so maybe USA. Or maybe republican resistance coups Franco and join USSR … that could fit specially before USA joins the war. Maybe Spain is more of 1 territory this time, as Mongolia? Let’s wait and see … :-)

Why only 10 for China?
I can see 12 Chinese territories, 1 IPC worth each…
