@Sgt-Mclusky Unlike previous renditions of A+A I find that AA40 has so many options and paths to victory that were still playing it and seeing new strategies in my group. Granted I was late to the party with this version so I don’t have years of experience, but we do play an awful lot, and almost never see the same game twice.
For Global 2nd Ed Question is India's Industrial Complex is it a Major or Minor?
-
Just confirming it is a Major Industrial complex.
For some reason when we set up the game board we placed a minor.
And verified in Triple A they have a minor in both global and just pacific. -
Sir Cala: it is a Major.
I am playing some AAA Global and have bought and placed more than 3 units.
Which version are you playing that is showing it as Minor? -
World War II Pacific 1940 2nd Edition
Map Name: World War II Pacific Number Of Players: 8okay you can place more than 3 but when you look at the territory it says base production 3 when looking at the territory tab
-
Thank you. I had not noticed.
If you can place 10 units, I would not worry.
You are right to remember it is a Major. It is Australia that has the Minor. -
“Base Production” simply means the amount of IPCs that territory gives, which happens to be “3”
In many A&A games, the IPC production of a territory is directly linked to the limit of the amount of troops that may be produced from a factory there. (Which I guess is why its called “Base Production” in TripleA)
In Pacific/Europe/Global 1940, the factory production limit is not linked to the IPC production of the territory they’re on.
-
ok that makes sense
-
there is only an indirect link.
a 1 (or 0) ipc terr cant get a factory, and thus cant produce anything
a 2 ipc terr cant get a major factory, an is thus limited to 3 units produced
a 3 or more terr can build a major IC an is limited to 10 units produced (this is only a limitation for eastern and central USA with production of 12 and 20 ipcs)
