2nd edition board using G40 pieces and 1942 rules?

@Mallery29:

unless you are both online at the same time, don’t you think NOT being on at the same time is what is causing the problem of the games?

double negative……There’s my 440 on the SAT at work…(at least I can do math!)

I have Revised (2004), and I will be getting 1942 2nd Ed.  Because the Revised map is pretty much the same as 1942 1st Ed., I figured I could just play 1942 on the older board. I have the instruction book PDF. I also saw the set up info on the Resources page, but I was wondering if any of the members here actually made their own cards or if they have a really good scan of them or something like that (I would be printing them out and laminating), because let’s face it. I just have no skill doing that kind of stuff.  Thanks  =)

And yes, I realize I made it only 3 votes, yet I gave four scenarios…I don’t know how to fix the vote number.  :oops:

@ragnarok628:

wait, so the number of pieces DOES limit how many ICs can be on the board?

No. The only edition where the number of existing pieces limited the number of units you could have on the board was on Classic, in the booklet that came with the rules addendum.

I know you want to play, so don’t be a wanna-be-player!

Be a PLAYER!  :mrgreen:

They are the medium sized ones from Litko.  The small ones are too small.

Yeah, I understand the reasoning of the rule and the need to change it from the old way, but we thought this went too far.  What we’ve done is left them defenseless but still able to be a casualty at any time in combat.  And if you’re attacking an undefended transport or transport fleet, you get three rolls per attacking unit to kill them and any survivors can retreat.

Maybe we’ll give this new rule a second chance next time.
