Pacific 1940 - Limited Edition or not?

@The-General-0 said in What are the basic strategies of Axis and Allies Pacific 1940?:

… it appears that Honolulu does not appear in the rulebook as a victory city that is able to be captured. Unusually, it appears on the board. Is this historical significance, or is it merely a mistake or simply decoration or literally a victory city?

You must have quite an old print. Maybe download the latest versions of the rulebooks from

Yes, Honolulu is a victory city.

Thanks guys for helping out. A couple weeks a ago I contacted WOTC with my issue and I didn’t know if I was crazy or not; however, they keep asking for more pictures of my board and the rule book, a link to their own FAQ is surely heading their way.
Thanks for all of your assistance! :relaxed:

White has an advantage in chess, too.  Doesn’t make it a crappy game.

However, a chess board where squares connected to squares they weren’t supposed to?  And only comes with thirteen pawns?  That’s kinda crappy.

I say that the next game needs Canada, special neutral rules for Finland, and vichy french rules (and, depending on the time period, poland as well). Why be picky and only make a few improvements?  :-D

Use the old Red Japanese A&AP Infantry for that - or potentially the old Yellow Japanese Infantry from A&A 2nd Edition.

Sounds like a good idea - care to post the full rule?

I went to my local Game Shoppe the other day to order Conflict of Heroes: Awakening the Bear and the owner of the store said he is not so sure that AAP1940 is a limited run anymore. He said he was talking to the sales rep and the rep indicated that it will be around for awhile. I wonder if the game is not selling due to the issues of limited pieces and set up errors and other things that are mentioned in the forum? There are still 2 copies available for sale and he hasn’t sold one since I picked mine up when it was released.

I think AAE1940 will be the last AA game that I buy. I feel really let down by AAP1940 after the previous games have been of such high quality. The other games that I play, Memoir '44 and Conflict of Heroes have much better quality components and I think better game play.

Dont give sup Skinny…i have a feeling Avalon hill is going to make some great strides in the future with A&A

I just sent WotC another email asking for more Japanese tac bombers since another thread has people reporting that they received some in the mail yesterday. If I do not receive any I will be done with Axis and Allies after AAE1940 comes out.

Here is the response that I received from WotC:

The units you see that were sent out in the forums were for for orders that occurred before Game Support had received the correct piece count for the game. So, unfortunately we cannot provide you extra pieces for the game. We do have a limited amount of replacement pieces, but those are for games that are defective, which include having broken or misshapen pieces, or if a game is missing pieces that are supposed to be in the box.

We do appreciate your feedback regarding the number of pieces provided in the game and have passed the comments on to the game designers.

Thank You

Here is the response that I sent WotC:

Thank you for the quick reply. Axis and Allies Europe 1940 will be the last of the games that I will purchase from your company. I find it very unfortunate that a game calls for 10 tactical bombers for set up and only 6 are included. I will be buying games from Days of Wonder and Academy Games from now on. I have never had this poor of customer service or have bought such a shoddy produced game in all my years of buying board games. This is a shame.

Thanks,

If you can wait until tomorrow, I’ll explain it all in my next article about the rules.

idk. but I most definatley will implement the whole russia can fight china rule.
