I know it’s just ANZ/France
Planning to have them done by tonight

gamerman01

Well… it won’t be too long, anyway

gamerman01

Hmm, that move seemed to be almost exactly like Karl’s…

gamerman01

Yikes, it’s almost impossible to tell the ANZ boats apart from the USA boats…. this could be problematic in the future…

gamerman01

Hmm - bigger problem for you than for me… Could be really easy to miss a 1-2 attack possibility!

Comforting to know the French are able to sink a transport :roll:

Congratulations - you got me to play a full round of a game in AAA - that is a first.

Things I like about this program

Wrap-around USA - this is wonderful - better even than playing the board game (since Larry didn’t bother to have the USA on the East line up with the USA on the West, nor the sea zones - VERY POOR)
A lot of the units look pretty cool once you get used to them. I especially like that a lot of the units look like the ones from the Board game (especially mech) and the unique artillery units of each country (esp Italy) The AA guns are great.
Obviously, not having to type everything or switch between the internet and the program all the time
Obviously, not having to check everything on the map every turn, and less downloading and then opening up in the program
Changing the color of the territories, as I said before. (Kind of wish the neutrals would become a solid color too, though)

Good to see the Yukon territory change was an easy fix for them.

Well, I’m just going to keep it positive. My critical points about AAA from before remain… But I see that playing G40 in AAA will be very fun, so thanks for persisting. :-)

gamerman01

By the way, did you know that in earlier versions of G40, Berlin only had a minor industrial complex? And there was no minor in Ukraine.

WHAT WAS HE THINKING? A MINOR in BERLIN??

Things I like about G40

Russia is appropriately huge
Oceans are appropriately huge
Air bases and naval bases
Repairable capital ships
Australia is divided up into multiple territories
Scotland and Eire
Pro-Axis and Pro-Allied neutral rules
3 ZERO IPC territories in Russia - love it
Minor vs. Major complexes and their rules.
SBR and interceptor fights. +2 Strat bomb damage
That Russia territory is only worth 3.
That you can’t build IC’s on islands or 1 IPC territories.
No majors on non-original territories
Mechanized infantry
Tech tokens are gone
Strait and canal rules, especially the new Danish straits and strait of Gibraltar
That it is possible to bring in all the true neutrals and earn money off them.
That Persia is 3 territories, and only one has infantry and income
Massively expanded Mediterranean

Again, I’ll keep it positive today, and not repeat all my scathing criticisms of the shortcomings of this game. :-)

gamerman01

Oh and

China is appropriately huge
China rules, and that they actually can get an NO and buy artillery
Split UK economies, but combined forces (brilliant)
New AA rules (did you know I talked Larry into reducing the cost back to 5?) 8-)

Yikes, it’s almost impossible to tell the ANZ boats apart from the USA boats…. this could be problematic in the future…

yes, but when you look on the territory tab, it separates the boats nicely.

boldfresh

i agree let’s play tech, since we are just messing around… i haven’t played a G40 tech game yet, and don’t know if i even know all the techs - are they listed in the ruleset?

I trust you’ll forget to do that at a key moment! :wink:

Sure, in the global rules.

Dude, it’s too late to approve tech, I already rolled one with the USA! Too bad I didn’t get improved shipyards - you might not have even known I had it for awhile :lol:

gamerman01

Paratroopers are very unique, so you need to read about those.
Rockets are launched from airbases, not AA guns
LRA is +1 (We knew this was a much needed improvement before Larry did! 8-))
Improved mechanized infantry totally sucks - it’s worse than advanced artillery!!

Jet fighters do nothing for tacticals (basically makes them completely obsolete except for their SBR ability)

Those are the biggest changes from AA50
You’d better read up on them, yes.
I think all G40 games should be with tech, since there are no tokens and so very few breakthroughs will ever make their way into most games.

Oh, and China can’t roll for tech. I checked with Krieghund. Everybody else can.

what is improved mech?
