Thanks @Stucifer, @SuperbattleshipYamato
& @Krieghund. I suspected that was the case but was really hoping it wasn’t.

@jim010:

He will lobby? So he does not have a hand in deciding this?

From what I understand, Larry is the creative mind behind AA but it is WOTC that puts up the money and capital to print and distribute the game. He is essentially contracted by WOTC (or otherwise sells his idea) and they take it and run with it.

Obviously he has significant influence on the final product but because he doesnt own the company that’s making all the profit he doesn’t make the final call.

I’m sure if Larry had his way we would have paper money… and maybe some variation of Alpha.

No only minus 2. So if the IPC value of surronding territories was 6 the sub would only subract 2 IPC. It would take 3 subs (2x3) to subtract all 6 IPC. Now if there were 4 subs in the sea zone (2x4=8) the nation would only lose 6 IPC because the value of the territories only equal 6.

Europe will be close to the same crap that Pacific is because the same people work for WOTC.

I’ll have to agree with Achtung, its a good Idea, but would cost allot and you wouldn’t be able to defend it very well. I tried to do the same thing by moving all the Brits to Java and built an airbase their and my opponent still took it in one turn!

I agree that it would happen so rarely its not really worth worrying about the consequences. I doubt the guy who was playing the US will ever let that happen again. Thanks for helping to point out the NO rule on the IPCs though. Didn’t even think about that aspect of it.

Thanks, I was comparing it to the Axis and Allies 1942 rulebook which has shiny pages. And that was about 1/2 the price of this game.

@reloader-1:

Look at the dates on this thread - digging up a half year old topic?

They are timeless issues

That is correct some issues are timeless. When a person wants to vent what is the difference what the date on the thread is? I have played over a dozen of these AAP1940 games and find that the cardboard is more disgusting with each game. And I have never even used all of them. I have used plastic ICs and AA guns from day one. I will get shed of all the cardboard as soon as I can find a plastic substitute for sea and air bases. I tried one of those funky war games with all cardboard many years ago. The first time someone bumped the map the pieces scattered every where. At least I can still pick up the control markers in AA games and that is enough cardboard in my games. Well that is enough venting for now.
