Axis and Allies Money!!

@calvinhobbesliker:

What I meant was that since they are short, it’s hard to move them accidentally when reaching for another piece.

Yeah, I think they should’ve kept AA guns as plastic

Oh, well yes, I agree then. I have found it to be more of a problem that other pieces will displace IC, NB, AB and AA guns more easily now, by pushing against them or whatever.

@cressman8064:

I hate using money, way too many mistakes, you have to spend time counting it to see how much you have and have 4 separate piles if your playing solo with the allies. I am glad to see the cheap paper money gone. I use this chart someone posted in the 1942 board, just change the countries names, it works so much better than cash, no lost money, ever. Note *This chart may have been a useful inclusion to the game so that one could simply photocopy more but hey fixing these small problems are what these forums are for.

I also made one for Pacific 1940, and I’ll likely post one for Europe 1940 and Global 1940 when it comes out. Here’s Pacific 1940 and 50th (1941 and 1942). Enjoy.

We play with real US currency.  When I play A&A I play hardcore.

Then you have to cross out the “In God We Trust,” which wasn’t there before the 1950’s.

Hope you are good… for your own sake that is.

You should be china and never spend your money, and then you get to keep it all

He wouldn’t be able to make all that much being China.

But all other powers will lose their money when they lose their capital

[LHoffman]

True… but you just have to make sure you don’t lose your capital. Be the US, they get a large amount of money and nobody… ever takes the US. Plus the US has good potential to make some money, whereas China doesn’t really.

Nice, lol.

[robbie358]

The loser has to shoot themselves rather than face execution, lol.

[maverick_76]

ROFL!

I personally wish that they would bring back real AA guns and money. IC I don’t really care because those don’t move, but the AA guns are a pain.

[robbie358]

That’s part of the reason that I started painting my set… I borrowed my AA guns from Guadalcanal and used them for PAC40.
The industrial complexes, air bases, and naval bases I rather like as the counters… I mean at least I don’t mind them.
And really we just write down all IPC transactions on a piece of paper, but I’d rather play with an income tracker and poker chips.  I really think that’s best.

No, Japan may intentially not take a certain Victory City(like Hong Kong), and then take WUS instead

If they did that you would have the IPCS so I guess you could do it
