I think they should still cost 5. The Wizards.com FAQ for revised (2004 edition) says AA guns can target fighters or bombers separately. So the AA guns are no stronger in AA50. They are actually weaker because they no longer fire on planes passing over-head like they did in revised.
How long does AA 50 take to play?

I was wondering how long does AA 50 take to play compared to AA Revised Edition?

If you are lucky and the gods of dice are with you 2-3 hours.
In average I would say between 4 and 5 hours.

Thanks Bjergmose
It usually takes me about 4 to 5 hours for the revised edition. Since the AA 50 map has more zones, I thought it would take longer.
I have been considering buying AA 50 but since I have a wife and 2 little kids it’s hard enough to get the time to play. If it took too long, I would have a hard time finishing it.

It will depend on how fast you play one full rnd, most AA50 games don’t last longer than, about 6-8 rnds.
If players are somewhat experienced, you can see which side will win. I have never achieved 13 VCs yet, nor have any of my opponents, b/c we can clearly see the winner before reaching a “technical” victory.

My experience is that the national objectives make AA50 a quicker game on average than Revised…early rolls determine alot and there is much less chance of stalemate. An 8-round game is a fairly long one…I think it would be very rare for a game to go 10 rounds without one side or another having a definite edge.

Thanks guys
I’ll give AA 50 a second look.
