LetÂ´s say you play A&A Revised with 5 players of different strength. How should you divide the nations between them to make the game most balanced. (nr. 1 is the best and nr. 5 the worst player)???

perhaps switch the British and Japanese player, depending on the players…

I tried to delete this topic but I guess I can’t. Mods please delete this topic. I’m going to ask my questions in the G40 boards, as it seems like that is probably the better place to ask my questions as they pertain to specifically G40

Original Europe. Just a great game overall for new folks. And still fun for grizzled vets.

So if the territories in are the same in both games, so the National advantages rules can be applied to the Spring '42 version? You think theses rules can be applied and make the game equal for every country in the Spring 42 version?

And can we play with the technology rule too?

If they dont put the NA in spring 42, there must be a reason, no?

Welcome to the A+A boards, BigKahuna!

Hoping that you have your answers already, but here goes:

1. Strategic bombing raids (SBRs) ONLY attack the industrial complex of a territory, not the units therein. If your game is playing without fighter escorts (optional rule decided by players ahead of time), the defender gets to roll his AA gun for each bomber SBRing the territory (killing a bomber for each 1 rolled), and that’s it. If you’re playing with fighter escorts, check the errata to see how many shots the defender gets for the fighter(s) stationed ONLY in the industrial complex’s territory. Surviving fighters don’t get to bomb the factory. Other than that, the other units in the territory don’t get to participate.

2. Usually that’s the case with this game, getting enough people to actually play a 5 person game. Team up, of course! Usually UK and Russia go well with the same person, sometimes I see UK and the USA by the same person. If only two people, obviously Axis and Allied teams.

3. Shoot, just use a pad and paper, but probably 30 of each should be more than enough. IPCs usually in the range of 50-60 per side at their highest.

What I used to do, as a high school girl, was to use a white chip under the control marker to signify it made it past the end of the chart once.

Now a days, I use a mapping utility even for face to face games. No limit on pieces, on chips or on money! (Also it’s set up instantly and you don’t have to put it away when you’re too drunk to see straight!)

according to the operations manual page 30 the transport may carry any land unit and a infantry… so i don’t reckon that you could carry two arts… unless your using a diffrent set of rules… or updated ??

but then again it seems every set has its own rules… slightly diffrent from the last set…
could be you transports may only carry two men… or a tank if its 2nd edition…

You might find someone a bit better informed at one of the A&A clubs.
