Re: Converting images for A&A Mini Modules

Use a lot of the same units.  Whenever I play, I give one player like 10 shermans if he is the us.  or 10 panzer IVs if he is germany.  It helps because you have less cards to look at for the movements and attacks.  If you cut out air, that shortens it too.

DK is taking over the maintanance of the A&A Mini modules.  That should give me time to contribute the occasional unit graphic, work on other modules like maybe WAS, and work on feature-related items within MapView like clearing dice icons.

Thanks Der Kommander for taking this on!

Yes. We could try playing out scenarios here in the boards but the games might take too long.

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

All the boxes from booster1 were like this.  Really easy to open and reglue.  Thats why the changed it int booster2.

As long as you cards are still sealed in the platic bag you are OK.  But it was really easy for “bad” people to open a box to see what was inside. If they didn’t like… just heat the glue a litte and reclose the box

I guess wizards took the decision purely on low cost… cheap bastards !!

Excellent question.  I do not have any historical evidence of widespread tank vs. tank ramming, and I don’t really expect that it went on.  I included the rule more for sake of gameplay with non-armored vehicles (jeeps, halftracks, etc.) The rule represents a sort of last ditch option available to a player with nothing left but jeeps who is trying to face down a tank.  I’ve people ask to be able to ram on a number of occasions, so I decided to come up with a rule for it.  The attack itself is pretty anemic (need 6’s to hit) so I can’t think of why a tank would ever choose to ram another vehicle instead of using it’s short/medium range armor attack roll instead.  Now a jeep, on the other hand, really wouldn’t have any other attack against a light tank.  With the ram you might be able to damage a tank, but you are certainly going to destroy your jeep trying.  Let me know if you end up using the rule and if it works for you or not.

I guess my challenge would be getting used to those maps again.

I was thinking of lettered columns and numbered rows, like battleship. Use the facing as described above. Counting movements should not be a prob. I think a code chart for unit shorthand would be wise too, to speed the play.

@GrogNerd:

I like it and plan to refer to it often as I am building my collection. Other than EBay, what sites are you using to gather the data?

Mostly eBay and one online store. As more online stores offer A&A Mini singles I’ll add them to the formula.

A couple of things to consider:

1. Price does not include shipping.
2. Commons and Uncommons are usually sold in groups of 2 or more. So the individual price is based on the average price of a single miniature.
3. The average prices are based on closed auctions within the past 7 days.
