Who's winning most of your games with the new 30IPC rule for USA. Japan or USA?

Guys,

@CWO:

@DWoodchuck:

We sold my wife on it, and my 5-month-old loved sitting in his high chair and watching.�

I sense you have a potential future A&A enthusiast there.  Always good to catch 'em young!

––I love it! You gotta teach ‘em young. And the “art” of rollin’ dice isn’t necessarily a bad thing,…haha.

Since I don’t have Europe I can’t really tell what to make of the convoluted Global alphas, and they weren’t configured for Pacific stand alone, so I would just stick with the Pacific alpha setups and rules.  Links to the relevant info on the Alpha Pacific are in the thread below.

Disregard the first post, I need to update for the new SE set up and rules.  Something of sufficient quality with both rule changes and setup should be stickied for those who bought AAP40 earlier.

@Funcioneta:

The problem is not BC. WUSA just one territory? For 3 millions of square kms? Come on!

Of course it’s not, that’s the point of asking why would it even be involved!!  And what’s 3 millions of square kms in WUSA?  It’s the US, they don’t use the metric system.  shoot, most Canadians don’t even use it still…

seriously though, I’m sure it goes back to the thought of if you can take the WUS, then the game is over and you should just reset the board.  Sorta like what happens when you take France in most games as the Allies.

From what i have seen, the allies are actually pretty hard pressed for victory at the start. It really does favor the axis from the start, but the allies get stronger the longer the war rages on, which means the axis need to take control quickly to win, but quick in the sense of this game is within the first 10 turns. This is a game that can last as long as 20-25 turns, longer than your typical A&A game.

@oztea:

they will relese AA50th aniversery after europe in 2011-12

it will be dubbed “Axis and Allies: Advanced” or something like that

with all the new stuff, and basicly a AA50 board with a 2 territory australia and mech and tacs and some other stuff, ports and ABs maybe

$149.99 USD

they arent making another theatre game anytime soon……

Maybe it will be short of set up pieces like AAP1940. And the set up and rule book will be incorrect like AAP1940. And no IPCs or reference cards like AAP1940.

well….ive come up against a connudrum…im just winning too many games myself, switching axis to allies and back again

ive played 8 games
im 2/2 as the allies
but im 4/0 with japan

i need to play some different players I think to get a better sample

What about using DDs in conjunctiion with SSs?  The subs can soak hits in the early rounds right, for only 6 IPCs instead of 8 IPCs.  I understand the extra #3 attack over a #2 gives the DDs a slight plus for the IPC cost, but i think adding a couple subs could give a small bonus to the final numbers.
