A&A 2nd Edition IPC (& More) Log Sheet

@Cmdr:

I have 3 factory sealed, mint condition “Classic” sets.  I do not either want to purchase one, nor do I want them to go back into print.  Let em die out, I wanna sell mine for $1500 each!

I disagree. Classic is dirt cheap and so heavily produced it’s like “sealed Monopoly”. Even a sealed AA50 edition is really, really pushing it at $1500. Take a look on Ebay. Even AA50 can be had $250-$500.

I’ve re-read the rules on violating neutrality…now this discussion makes sense!  Thanks.

Wow that big board idea is clever! How did they do that? You think if I brought my game board over to Kinko’s…

I have the milton bradley edition. Do you play that or hasbro version. Dont have this type is it the same or different and how?Is it better or not? What type is more popular? :-? “Never surrender” “Let the panzers pass by then engage the infantry!” 8)

Curious how this CD-ROM will be… A&A meets RTS???

This is to all those who have a copy of Dogs of War…

Has anyone ever attempted editing the game? Through editing the MAP.DAT file, it is possible to add as many new territories as desired…

I have considered editing it to make a Europe split up much like Xeno Games’ “Europe at War” expansion. It would make for an interesting, and long, game. However, it takes a considerable amount of time to edit the MAP.DAT. There is simply too much work involved doing it by hand.

Has anyone else ever tried to do it? Or perhaps coded some kind of graphical front-end that would make editing it easier?

Just curious. Any comments would be welcome.

That’s strange, I thought he hated A&A.
I checked out the site and couldn’t make heads or tails of it.

Expert advice? Probably not, but here it goes anyway. I think you are right about not wanting to be in the atlantic. Too easy for US aircraft to just sink you on the way to England, WE, or FN.

T1 - One Transport, 8 Inf
I would use one fighter to get rid of the sub. You can leave the 1 inf in algeria and blitz the tank west to take the two territories south of Algeria and Libya, don’t remember the names. On non-combat you can ferry over two mor inf and now you have 3 in Libya, 1 in Algeria, and an armor in French West Africa. Be sure to put 4 inf in SE.
You may lose Algeria to the allies, but you can attack it on T2 with 3 inf and the tank can go north or east. If England still has one inf and 1 armor in egypt you can dump 4 inf a BB on it, assuming the sub is dead. If the sub isn’t dead I would go for it anyway and lose the BS if it hits. Send a fighter to the sub too, because you want to make sure it dies. Pain in the a** if the BS misses and it submerges.

Of course any strategy changes depending on what your oppenent does. One thing though. If you think your fleet is going to die before you get to use it again. I would use it as cannon fodder with the airforce to take out some of the now very scary allied fleet.

To the real experts, any thoughts?
