@Panther Thank you for your response…that helps a lot!
I think I did the right thing.

@Cmdr:
Sharpeeing a map is sacriledge! Why not melt your figures down and remold them into different pieces while yer at it? Eh? Burn some books too! :roll: :cry:
I have to admit. I do agree. Especially with the Anniversary Edition…
-
Yea it was a tough call but once I did it, it really made the map pop, looks more like a map now.

I see no difference between the German book burnings and sharpeeing the Axis and Allies Maps. :P

Hoorah. Karma comes back to you as you said.
As to melting those horrendous figures, I’m all for it. In fact I’m replacing my A&A infantry with 15mm scale PSC figures
as soon as they make British,Americans and Japanese. :-D -
I guess I could use the sharpie and give myself the 'stache.

back on topic… No you didn’t do the right thing. The right thing would have been: Buying all of the '42 2nd games they had and giving them to me no change. But I think I understand why that didn’t occur to you, given that you don’t have my address to mail them to I guess you did the 2nd best thing.
-
Haha yea. They only had one copy of each.

I Sharpied my 1942.1 years ago through Europe. I just went through and did the same thing to my 1942.2. However, I was a little more extensive this time.
I got all of Europe, except the Spain-Gibraltar border, and I sharpied in the borders between the following SZ: 5-6, 6-7, 6-8, 7-8, 13-14. On 6-8 I crudely blued in the existing border and sharpied it in further over to make it obvious that Northwest Europe connects to SZ 8.
I figure that I’ve ruined any collector/resale value for the board, but since I plan to wear it out, I don’t really care about that.
-
Nice, It could have been the lighting, the pieces, or the alcohol, but everytime we played that new map style (AA50 to present) the boarders were just to hard to distinguish. I really didn’t want to do it at first so I guinea pigged the first 42 game and I was pretty impressed. We have never had any issues with the original Europe or Pacific boards, or Revised.
The only parts of the map I trace are Germany and Russia, everything else is clearly defined.
