Europe

I wounder if you will be allowed movement on the northwestern coast of Africa. The Sahara goes to the coast in most AA games of recent, and is impassable. Would give new meaning to an IC in Brazil. You would be able to get troops into North Africa quicker w/ a safer route.

[Funcioneta]

West Sahara must be Spanish (pro-axis neutral), maybe even with a shiny red and yellow roundel on it if you ask me … if you attack Franco or make him join the axis, it would be cool seeing how that front develops …

a few fixes

[Captain Beremir]

Wow that map looks great, especially with the roundnels added it. My one criticism however is that the French and Italian roundnels are way too close in looks. Hopefully that will change so that they wouldn’t look so similar in the actual game.

[oztea]

i was going to draw a facies (spelling?) but i opted for what larry had used, even if its ahistorical

[Captain Beremir]

I understand your reasoning, but I hope Larry isn’t planning for the two roundnels to be so similar, especially with so many bordering territories of theirs. Its not like its a Japanese roundnel and an Italian one :-P

[oztea]

Well its not like italy and france are going to be taking that many territories!!!

Hahaha! that is a joke you see!

[Guest]

Where are the convoy boxes?

[idk_iam_swiss]

It looks great. I like that america is broken up into more territories. Its a new change

[oztea]

I think i need to do IPCs before convoy boxes
and I think larry said convoy boxes have changed, not a sea zone within a sea zone, just a sea zone that deprives IPCs to another, like the WHOLE seazone is linked to a land territory.

We will see, but thats how I will be doing it

[Guest]

Sounds good. Can’t wait to see your IPC values

[Captain Beremir]

Yeah I’m excited to see how that turns out

[Guest]

I will be excited to see the real map some day as well

[oztea]

larry is keeping pretty tight lipped on this

[Captain Beremir]

A map that keeps getting better and better. I saw it posted over on Larry’s forums as well; hope he likes it as much as we do!

[cts17]

I thought that there would be 6 territories between Berlin and Moscow???

Also, I feel, as a Canadian, that Central Canada should be worth 3 IPC as well. I’m still really peeved with the introduction of ANZAC and Italy without the input of Canada. Ah well. Such is game balance.

[WILD BILL]

Oh my, you made Sweden worth more then Norway. You better change that before Adlertag sees it.

[oztea]

there were serious discussions about invading norway, by the axis, allies, and soviets. Making it worth 4 makes it a little more enticeing.

[WILD BILL]

Oz, I guess you meant Sweden instead of Norway.

I still don’t think Sweden will be worth more then Norway. They should both be 3, and Finland at 2.  I don’t see Larry changing to much from what he used in AA50.

I Know the iron ore in Sweden was a huge bonus to the axis, but they were handing it over to Germany anyway, so I don’t see why it should be worth so much. I could see it if they refused to trade with Hitler, but that wasn’t the case. Maybe tie all the Scandinavian countries to an NO or use convoy boxes to reflect the amount of trade that went on up there.

Yeah from what I have heard as well, the amount of territories you need to cross from Berlin to Moscow is around six. Sounds like a good number to me. Also I would love to see the Atlantic widened just enough to where you had to drop off troops in Britain before crossing the Channel over to Europe.
