UK Starting Income

The simple thought of new players is why money should have been included. The experienced players don’t need the money. In the base AA42 game money should have been included as a learning tool. In the AA40 games the complexity goes way up. For a newer player the more help to simplify things the better. These games at the very least should have offered a tracking chart in the rule book that could be copied. I would suggest to newer players to use poker chips, money from other games, or make up a chart to track money including NO’s by nation.

I was already winnig with japan,
Great news!
Thx

they start with what it says they start with on their setup chart

you collect IPCs from NOs along with normal IPC collection

@Krieghund:

I’ve been thinking about this some more, and I have some further thoughts.

I don’t think that UK/ANZAC planes should be allowed to land on Dutch or French territories while they’re still Dutch or French controlled, unless they are at war.

I assume the Dutch have already lost their capital.

How does one declared war on a fallen country?

Unless the UK and ANZAC are at war, not the Dutch or French.

Thank you.

If US decides to build up in HAW seazone, your aircraft are useless for a complete round (or more). Because you can’t fight that seazone (6 spaces). As US player I would just sit tight, build up and move to Japan via a northern route. Or go to Indies via southern route (Australia). Or build up TR with loads of cargo to take out Carolines. For every fighter it costs Japan it costs an inf for US.

And I think it will be a very dull way to play, or am I mistaken?

Ouch.

@jeffdestroyer:

If the UK sends an AA gun to China…it would put them at war with Japan…correct.?

You could do this as early as UK2 without too much downside. I’d think Japan will be attacking or disrupting convoys by J3 anyway.

Yes, this is really cool. Thanks for digging it up and posting it.
