I am trying to introduce A&A to more people, and thus using 1941, but it needs some modifications. The first moves are so scripted because there are so few pieces to start with, and you can’t buy any more expensive units because of how little money you make. These changes make the setup more interesting and historical, while also keeping it simple to keep this the introductory version of A&A. No modification of game components is required, although owning other A&A games is recommended for more pieces. Feedback is appreciated.

That is something I really liked about the old gameboard from Classic A&A. Along the edges of the board they had these little blow-up boxes for certain territories on the map. So, if the map was getting a little too cluttered, you could stick some of your units in the blow-up boxes. I would usually put the ICs, AAguns and Air units in the blow up boxes and the ground forces on the map.

I suppose it’s like Chess…
Does the queen or knight REALLY represent how a horse, or Maiden works? NO. And the tactical representation is moot.
But the piece remains!

Good point, Garg
