Pacific at War

@midnight_reaper This is a old thread but TBH they should of kept the design for some of these charts. They are beautiful and the cherry red for Japan looks gorgeous (but it makes sense they wouldn’t do it for Pacific 2nd Ed. because of obvious reasons.

@groovyarmada:

Hi, a number of years ago I used to play AA Pacific (2001 version) via the now defunct website: days-of-infamy.com. We used Motcreations mapview and the map looked identical to the actual printed gameboard. I have looked around and cannot find the original map for this version of Aixs & Allies for Mapview or Triple A, is it still in circulation? Is there a club for playing the original AA Pacific?

Cheers

Groovy.

I probably dumped 40 hours into (re)making that map from the low-quality one that was made available by AH.

I’m sure you can play AAP via MapView here if you want to.

@frimmel:

Yes this is a nice version of Axis and Allies and the sets with Cherry Red Japanese pieces are terrific looking.

Oh I love em!

@Flashman:

Elbowmaster’s redundant site has a scan of the connector strip:

Thanks for the links, Flashman.  They look like they will be very helpful.  I suspect that I might still make up my own set of rules, but they give plenty of starting points.

pacific. europe turns into infantry push also, Navies are cool!!!

Chinese and Indian Infantry would just stack up while you wasted everyone of your fighters…then the U.S. would just come in from your rear and wipe you up.

It’s been posted before, but may be relevant to these latest modification suggestions: a relatively simple mod to balance things is to move japan’s VP counter at the end of the whole round instead of at the end of Japan’s turn. Thus to keep its gains, Japan has to think even farther in advance.
