Analyse the new map and IPC income

Yeah, tech is my favorite House Rule for 1942.

Well said Mr. Malachai… So here is the situation I present: Best 100 IPC navy for both Attack and Defense. The navy, after all, is intended to go up against another navy of equal size and strength. I guess you could attach an amphibious assault to it, but that would be irrelevant in this rule set since an amphibious assault would depend completely upon the success of the “navy” and would not participate in this battle.

I ask this question because this is the best ruleset to discuss Naval buys. I am probably still thinking in a Revised mindset (played this version just twice, and not the whole way through). I am curious because no more can you just stack Trannies with a capital ship or destroyer…

Oh yeah IL, your maps are better than all the others on the www. Thanks again :D

@coorran Yes, we simply printed it on paper (cheaper than vinyl!) with plotter-printer … than pin down to a plywood table, easy done :)

@iGuitar93:

Yes I have previously played risk. I thought it was too much of a game of luck so I tried this one.

A&A is also a mixture of skill and luck, although you can use a Low Luck system that greatly diminishes the random factor built into it.

@Dylan:

USSR: 24 IPC’S
USA (including Alaska and Hawaii) 31 IPC’S
Germany: 10 IPC’S
UK: 8 IPC’S
France: About 6 IPC’S
Italy: About 6 IPC’S
Japan: 8 IPC’S
Spain: None
Canada: 4 IPC’S
Australia: 2 IPC’S
New Zealand: 1 IPC
China: (Modern Map) 10 IPC’S

Does that make any sense

Actually, Ukraine, Belorussia, and West Russia were part of the USSR, so its total value would be 31.

Oh right. Well for Russias modern map they have 24, minus Kazakh, Ukraine, Belorussia, and West Russia would be in their control as you said, roughly so about 24 I guess, a no that wasnt what I was thinking.

They do have West Russia

Yes I know - and it has a seperate Forum - there is one Forum for the new 1942 Pacific Game and one for the older Version - both have separate Forums.

Just right because they force navies to bulk up on protection and it makes the game more dynamic. Bombers being cheaper allows for flexibility when playing Germany to have them attack arriving convoys or support a counter attack on the Russia front. Before they were just too expensive to be used very much. It certainly makes the game more fun.

@Imperious:

should upload in 5 seconds.

Aah, much better, many thanks :) (The problem is I have only about 500 MB left on my HD, so I simply can’t afford to keep your .pdf’s on my laptop :roll: )
