@andrewaagamer I have not heard of such a document, but that doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist.

I am scratch building victory cities or modifying Risk pieces as well as using them as minor ICs.
The city pieces in the new edition of Fortress America might be useful to you:

Are the US colors dark green or olive drab? I was going to get some supplement pieces from Historical board gaming and wanted to know the right color for the US units. Really looking foward to this and the other reprints later this year.

$60 just for those pieces is too much. I can build more for far cheaper and can even customize for each city.
Scratch building those are quite easy. -

OOB A&A US units are always Olive Drab.

Correct. Olive Drab for USA. The Dark Green at HBG matches the old Marines color from the 2001 Pacific game.

You said they were 5 IPC and can only move in non com and can fire at up to 3 planes just like Alpha 3 AA. If this is right why are they called an artilary piece. If they can only move in NCM aren’t they just nation specific AA?

I can’t be sure as to why they are called what they’re called. That’s a question for Larry and WOTC. But, my guess is to differentiate it from the AA guns in first edition which fired at each air unit (by type) and were also subject to capture. Now they are eliminated like defenseless transports making it more like a unit.

I can’t wait to find out what the 5 new scupts are.
-
They are called AA artillery, because those guns are classified as artillery. Hence the name. I think they changed the name from the simple AA gun to AA artillery because it sounds new and better.
-
They will forever be known as AK-AK’s in our group.

Gents,
I just call them what they really were, FLAK GUNS, works for me.

so far I’m still calling them AA guns.
