Also, bump.

Why do I see people posting “bump”? What does that mean?

It’s essentially an empty post that attempts to bring the thread back to the first page of the list

Thanks for your help a +1 to you

Wow that big board idea is clever! How did they do that? You think if I brought my game board over to Kinko’s…

Marines attack for 3 when they are part of an amphib. assualt. Destroyers are immune to surprise attacks by subs and they can attack air units.

Thanks for all the great responses. I can see that storage options for the pieces are high on everyone’s list, followed closely by greater denominations for tokens.

It’s a shame that tooling custom plastic pieces is so complicated (and costly). I would love to include snapping boxes (like RISK used to have).

I thought was an interesting observation about the similarity in the brown pieces. I’ve never encountered any confusion, but I can see how it could happen.

(dezrtfish, I know what you mean about storage options. For AH’s ASL, I keep my pieces in hundreds of film canisters that I got from a giant film processing company in town. They work great…but are too small for A&A. Maybe empty peanut cans or large baby food jars would work.)

(Maybe, Thoes.)

Thanks again everyone!

JD, Thanks. I’ll check em out.

“He beat me.”

More likely you beat yourself! :P

In The Zone last night I saw someone with instructions on playing without a CD. It looked like you needed two programs - one that converted your CD into a file on your hard drive, and then another that run it as a ‘virtual CD’. I wrote the info down but don’t have it with me right now. I will try it tonight and let you know if it works.

Ha, nice work. Go for broke. :wink:
