Just bought the game and need help…..

I took my 1999 Europe, 2001 Pacific, 2004 Revised, 1942, 1942 2nd edition, and 1941 and put them into Artbins. Like you, I left specific campaign, global, and AA50th in their boxes.

Hey guys, pretty new here and I’m trying to learn more about PBF, the dice and the battlemap which is used.  I’ve tried searching however haven’t come up with anything great.  Hoping someone might have a couple links book marked they could post that might help me along.

Thanks.

I think i understand now.  Can’t wait to try it out.  Hopefully you mind if I have a few questions after my first couple of games.  Thanks for the info Frimmel.

@LT04:

I love this topic but I have a quick question…

Why doesn’t the math work both ways?  What I mean by that is if you steepen the curve with your attack hits to get the “average” hits instead of the “expected” hits why doesn’t the same rule apply when calculating the enemy defense hits?

That would make your estimate a lot more conservative.

I does do the same with defense hits. It is just that in the scenario he mentioned there was only 1 unit so the odds are simple - 33%. If there were more units in defense you would have to do the same thing. However, generally there are more attacking units than defending units, because the attacker would not do a battle that he would lose. So, this makes the number of hits the defender gets roughly the average since the attacker almost always has => the defender units.

ok thanx. ill wait . im looking forward to playing

Thanx for the simplication GG, when i was posting that i read it over and thought hopefully some one will understand that mess.

hi
I want to play via email axis and allies. so who wants to play with me? then email me:

Random crashes do happen a lot in A&A (to the dread of players everywhere) at any particular moment. I might help if you reinstall A&A or close all programs before running A&A.

Oh yeah, Direct issues might help too. Check the troubleshooting file.
