It would be nice if one could by the 2nd ed rulebook
Yes it would, printing out the set ups can get messy and lost easily, it would be nice to have a proper book…also a shame about missing out on all the awesome pieces.

The first picture has been extrapolated for you. Use that.
The second picture is what people playing the game for the first time did… don’t go by that.
-
Im just using the second as a “proving my point pic”. The first one is what im mostly using. I believe its 4. If you want to chane,change. If you dont,dont. I make my point.
-
IL, stop being an ass and change it to anything more than one. :-)
-
As frustrating as this is……a word of the wise “dont p**s off the moderator.”
-
Actually IL knows I am not trying to piss of the moderator, but I am just making fun of your discussion.
Ok, seriously, IL, I understand your point that it might be one fighter and if you want to keep it that way for now, that’s ok. It’s your post. However it would be really sad if UK started off with one ftr on her island… Talking about historically incorrect setups…
Plus, this would also mean a misprint on the setup card as it clearly says fighters.
-
il look closer a 1 is strigter look at the numberas before and after it. they are stright. the fighterS are sort of wide and 3ish
-
@Proud:
I think it says that there are 4 fighters in the UK
Still think its 3 cause i looked at other 4s and its not the same blur. any other opinions?
Sure looks like “1 fighters” to me……
Ah, vindication. :-D

Guys:
Just look at the picture of the set up card. Thats the only proof to determine what the set up is.
You cant go by what PEOPLE did and took a picture of. People who never played before make mistakes
Secondly, the set up is the primary documentation because thats what you go by to set up the game. You don’t go by a “picture of the map with pieces” do you?
The only question is to determine the values of the quantity of pieces, due to the unclear nature of the numbers. That remains speculation except that the same result has been confirmed by others, compiled and posted in its clearest form.
Take what is posted ( the set up on page one) and discuss difference from what you think it reads. Thats the only topic here for discussion.
-
There have to be at least 2 if not 3 (or even 4) fighters in the UK at setup since it says “fighterS” in the UK setup card.
Uh, yeaaaahhhhhh…… And isn’t this game made by the same people who put “artilley” on the setup card, and didn’t put Honolulu on Hawaii, and had a major complex in Australia, and a minor on New Zealand, etc etc etc
More convincing is the picture with a chip under the fighter. Not convincing - the plural of “fighter” being on the setup card :lol:
:-D
-
lets stop annoying IL. Im just saying I barely use the pic. Infact I havent used it till today!
Anyway i think theres 4 there. Anyone back me up?

@Proud:

!!!
-
I concur with Proud American
-
In the pic I see 2 infantry in Anglo-Egypt Sudan,
but the setup card indicates just 1…
am I wrong? -
I find this interesting, but I really don’t care right now. I can’t play it yet, so it doesn’t matter.
As long as this isn’t an error in that there should be 4 fighters not 3 or whatever… but still. Doesn’t matter right now.

theres 3 egyptian territories.
Alexandria
Egypt
Anglo Egypt Sudan -
@Proud:

Alexandria
Egypt
Anglo Egypt SudanIs that the answer to my question?
Sorry, but I can’t understand what you mean… -
OK. maybe this will help.

It is probably a 4, but it is definitely not a 1 (compare it to the other 1’s on the chart PLUS plurar for “fighters”)
4 makes the most sense (but cannot be confirmed since there are no other 4’s on the chart) because of the attack on the Bismarck (djensen testgame) and the stacks of chips under the fighters (djensen testgame) and lastly for historical accuracy and game balance. -

but I was saying that in Djensen’s pic I can see 2 inf in Anglo Egypt Sudan,
while the setup chart indicates just 1 inf in that territory. -
