May the dice be with you.

@Krieghund:

The Rulebook can be found on the game’s home page on the Avalon Hill website.

Thanks Krieghund!

@Ruanek:

I keep hearing about how awesome the AA50 technology rules are, but I don’t have the game so I can’t see them.  Can someone explain the tech rules, please?

Well, the tech rules in AA50 are an improvement over previous editions of A&A, but  I, personally, would not label them as AWESOME.

They look pretty good to me.

@TwistedAries:

I will be creating some for each side as well so there will be only 2 towers.  There will be multiple designs as well.  I will try to get some done shortly and post pictures.

Yes! These are the pictures I have been waiting for. I’m very interested in your stuff. Will they be wood or cardboard?

Thanks!  They will be MDF.  Not really into the cardboard.

yes and post a picture of the final work.

I agree for more than just the financial reasons.

A Pac Strategy is SOOO easy in this game to pull off, even a rookie can do it!  (With the Allies.)  Japan literally cannot be everywhere with it’s navy at once like it could in Classic and (to a lesser extent) revised.  Too many new sea zones let you hide your fleet around.  If Japan splits up to protect all avenues of approach (notice that they would have to move into range of your fleet to block you after starting out of range) then you can focus your firepower to destroy their smaller fleet(s).

If BGG has it out there already, well hell.

This is 3MB smaller and better quality:

So Italy really wasn’t a large factor? Did they conquer all of Africa? What were their builds?

Italy built 1 trs and 1 CV and then mostly land units, adding 1 DD later on. Africa wasn’t important, Germany sent a tank down there which manoeuvred to avoid 2 UK infs (landings in West Africa were not done but probably would have been a good idea). Italy was a factor in that it distracted from attacking the Germans and I think a balanced approach by the US and the UK is probably more effective, i.e. landing in both Norway and Algeria, having fleets both in North/baltic sea and West Med, SBR against both Germany and Italy, and this necessitates a lot of US involvement.

For such things as India IC, this is a detail which o/c we just have to try and fail to see if it can be held, more than 4-5 rnds?

In this game there was no India IC, India survived because Japan focused on China and Australia. In an other game an IC was built and defended with the help of some Russian troops but the jury is out on if this really is viable if the Japs really go all-out vs. India. I hope there’s more UK ships to start with since that would make defending a built IC so much easier! We’ll see very shortly when we get the UK set-up.
