I saw your post sitting so long I registered to give you a few pointers on maps. Most if not all the WotC map packs are themed in some way. Originally they were 2" hexes but were changed some time ago. The map packs you mentioned are themed as follows: North Africa - 3 Desert maps and on reverse side 3 jungle maps. Eastern Front - 3 town/factory maps and on the reverse side 3 Russian steppes maps. There are two starters, the one in the cardboard box is the old one and contains 12mm mini’s and 2" hex maps. the new starter is in a blister pack and has 15mm mini’s and 3" hex maps. The maps in the new starter are mixed forest/hills/clear. The rules and revised cards are downloadable through the WotC site.
QUESTION FROM A NEW PLAYER RE: AA MINIATURES
-
DO THE DIE ROLLS STACK OR COMBINE? THAT IS: ASSUMING NONE OF THE ATTACKING UNITS ARE DISRUPTED OR DAMAGED… IF I HAVE LET’S SAY AN M1 GARAND UNIT IN ONE HEX AND AND A SHERMAN IN THE SAME OR DIFFERENT HEX AND THEY ARE ATTACKING ONE UNIT (LET’S SAY A PNZER) AND THEY ARE BOTH WITHIN RANGE… CAN I COMBINE ALL OF THE DICE AND JUST ROLL ONCE? OR DO I HAVE TO FOR EACH UNIT THAT IS ATTACKING AS A SEPARATE DIE ROLL
EXAMPLE: M1 GARAND GUY: 1 HEX AWAY GETS 2 DICE AGAINST A VEHICLE, ABRAMS AT 4 HEXES AWAY GET 11 DICE AGAINST A VEHICLE…IS THAT A TOTAL OF 13 DICE?..CAN I ROLL AT ONCE?

What’s with the CAPS?

Each unit attacks seperately.

Thanks for clearing that up! Now I can continue my current game :-D … is there ever a situation where you can combine the attack value of units in one die roll?

Not that I’m aware of, though I don’t know all the new cards from the latest set or two.

not to my knowledge. there are units in war at Sea that units can split their main gunnery, but u cant stack units to get more attack dice. all units roll independently
