Seeking AAM Newbie Game (MapView)

WAS and AAM have enough units that using shapeways other other models/cards like team poseidon that you can have whats fairly close to a complete game.

@Motdc:

The starter is not meant, unfortunately, to be a stand-alone game.  You must buy at least a few more booster packs to get a good mix of units to mix-n-match a decent army together.

That’s exactly it. You’ll need probably 4 or more boosters to make the starter actually enjoyable. Anything less than 100 point battles just aren’t fun.

Mot, basically there are only two new tanks, a couple of changes to some tanks that are in other sets, renames, country changes, costing changes.  You know the changes better than I do.  See below, I’ve list the ones I know.

I would suggest only to add the two new tanks and work on set III.  Need some Panzerschreck HELP!!! with the new IS2 tank.  A platoon of Panzerfaust is not enough to kill it.  Defense 7/7 + superior armor.  Even if it’s disrupted the Panzerfaust needs to roll 8 out of 10 to damage.

New:
Sherman VS 17-Pounder
Valintine I

Country change:
T-26B (same as Chinese T-26)
M3 Light Tank (same as Stuart)

Name change:
M18 GMC (same as M18 Helcat)
Panzer IV Ausf F2 (same as Panzer IV Ausf. G)

Other several tanks & Vehicles rocosted

That V1 is pretty sexy, the buildings are sweet as well.

There are definitely things aspects about the game that are not perfect. But I think the positives outweigh the negatives.

Compared to other games like it, it’s cheaper, it has a nice rule system, it is customizeable, and games can be as short or as long as you want them

yea ooops.  it was suppose to read.  “WHY would you when you have those other units”.  sorry for the confusion

Please check out the poll. I’m cross posting this to get a good response rate…

A&A Miniatures are close to 15mm models, like other wargames out there (not to be confused with 25 and 28mm famous from games like Confrontation and Warhammer). So they’re much bigger than the boardgame pieces.
