Redrum, I didn’t realize you were a Triple-A Developer. I hope you take no offense. I didn’t mean to insult your baby. I appreciate the work you guys have done on Triple-A. As of late, I have found myself playing the AI more often than I would like (as I cannot get my friends together to play often enough). I am confident the AI will continue to improve over time. I guess I should put up or shut up. I ought to be submitting my bug reports to help you guys tweak the game.
Axis and Allies 1942 Edition Fact Sheet ( AA42)
-
The AA42 rules 99% resemble the AA50 rules if you remove Italy, China, National Objectives and tech. There was only one very minor change.
-
… There was only one very minor change.
I am curious … are you allowed to tell us more about it?
:-) -
Sure. The game is public now, so I can talk about it. The change is that when you buy more units than you can mobilize, you get a refund for the unplaceable units rather than having them remain in the mobilization zone for later placement.

Ironic rule change… for a game where they elected not to provide any IPC “pieces”.
-
So same map as revised, and same rules as AA50.
Why should someone pay for this other than to support Larry?
And I do mean support Larry, not WOTC. They dont deserve any.
-
Is the starting setup atleast a bit different? I hope…
-
So same map as revised…
No Map changes?
Is that true?
So I can use my old 80x160 cm self-made revised map? Please confirm it.
-
look at the photos. its re-drawn to match anniversary, but its the revised map.
-
Only one change in map
Central Usa at Eastern Usa instead Western Usa -
Only one change in map
Central Usa at Eastern Usa instead Western UsaIt changed sides. But its still adjacent to west usa and east usa (of course).
But now it borders east canada as opposed to western canada.
Wonder what was the stupid rationale for that change, and no other…
-
Probably wasn’t even noticed as a change, artist probably made a mistake and no one noticed/cared.

Central USA now borders Panama in the south?
-
Yes.

Does any one know if NO’s & tech will be offered as an option in an errata latter. You figure by not offering them in the orig AA42 game but introducing them in an official faq/errata they could save about 5 cents a copy. lol
-
no NO’s, No Tech. This is the fast food version of AA.
-
Yea but these are things that could be added later through an errata at no cost to the establishment.
-
Yea but Larry does not do that kind of thing. The exception was AA50.
And if he released errata its not gonna have entire tech tree and NO’s and all kinds of optional rules….as errata.
AA50 gave us just 2 optional rules and these were short paragraphs.
-
I might have missed this but are there any IPC changes to the territories???
How much does each country recieve in IPC???
Are there still SBRs???
AA rules the same as Revised or are they like AA50?
AA50 cost to pieces I assume???
-
