Looking for the 1941 and 1942 setup maps in PDF format

@Imperious-Leader Maybe you went this way since the original design does archetypally the same, but how about, in the land-to-land borders, colourizing the borders of the borders, while leaving the inside of the borders light grey?
This way, you could properly define the colours for the borders between territories with different ownerships (for example, having the border between Poland and East Poland grey on the west and red on the east).

The Soviet symbol in the turn order is different from the ones inside the territories.

The Azores are sometimes neutral and sometimes American (also probably it would make more sense as British than Americans, but debatable and pointless).

In the “AA50 Suplreme Edition” there are no territories for Azores and Malta, but only the roundels?

For the once liking the OOB map. Here is my scan of the 2nd edition map:

When I have the time (my focus is currently on some Global 1940 customizations) I want to update at least the Iwo Jima and Honolulu mistake.

But looking at geography ‘errors’ don’t get me started on the Dutch East Indies and the fake islands they came up with.  :-)

thanks yes.  I have a re recreated board and not the game.  But that sounds right with changing territories.

Seriously, your best bet to get this fantastic version of the game is to download the maps that IL has made and have it printed out.  Combine that with the wonderful player made setup-charts.

Then, buy yourself 2 copies of AA Spring 1942.

Take the Germans from one copy, spray them brown for Italy (Start with several light coats of Krylon fusion primer followed by several light coats of Krylon fusion brown).

Viola, you have yourself AA 50th Anniversary Edition.

Finding one for cheap any more is going to be ridiculously hard with it having been a limited production.

Where can I find “the maps that IL has made”?
Are these something that can be printed and then laminated?
I too love this game and cannot find a copy for a resonable price.
I like the idea of making the italians by painting them.  I’m just not sure where to get a copy of the actual map.
any help or links would be greatly appreciated.
thanks in advance.

yes and post a picture of the final work.

As a matter of curiosity, does anyone know if it is possible with the right moves and builds for the 1941 scenario to become the 1942 scenario in exactly two full turns?

Assume the players are all cooperating to achieve this, and assume any battle results go the way you like.

If you can manage it down to to actually getting the starting income of all the countries at the correct amount, mad props, but I’ll be sufficiently impressed if the board setup is identical.

Use of NOs are optional, whichever you think will be more likely to get you to the desired setup, but obviously nations can’t buy tech during the first two turns.

@marechallannes:

@Driel310:

To add to that, putting in an extra DD in SZ15 makes a shitload of difference since Germany is now unable to attack Egypt on G1, making life hard on Italy as you described.

Of course you have all the liberty of the world to guess the correct setup as we don’t know the whole true one, but this change is so big impact on game balance is very substantial.  :wink:

p.s. trust me, if Japan wants, India will fall on J2. Only the Russians can prevent that, but I doubt they can spare the troops.

Did you play it with this DD in SZ 15?  When did you take egypt?

I am not shure to sacrify the german bomber for a landing operation in turn 1…

No we did not. We used the R9 version of the map Bluestroke made. We believe that is the only setup that has some basis, the pictures from GenCon. Any changes to that setup (although we got confirmed there are some) are pure speculation.

And unless you are unlucky, Germany should not push the Egypt attack until the bomber dies too.
