Whats the best place to pre-order A&A Pacific 1940?

Cant do that, the count starts from where carrier is and you need to move the carrier in range for plane to land. If no opportunity presents itself, you cant move there.

Do any of you consider uniting the ANZAC and British Fleets?

@cwwgateway:

Two things I noticed:

It at least looks like the canadian markers have been changed to UK (but not in the europe game pics?)

In alpha 3 there’s a fighter in Korea that isn’t here now.

The missing fighter might be a set-up error

Not really. Hope Autumn 2nd Ed will point the right way.
As Russia and the 18 Eastern Inf are not on the map makes it easier for Japan as they can empty Manchuria and Korea and send them against the Chinese.
We need a Manchuria garrison ruling(eg:  keep 6-8 units in Manc).
Alpha 3 helps as it reduces Japan’ s air power.
US’s starting income is weak(17), perhaps that will be enhanced to include Central US. War income adequate, not brilliant. Play the 5 NO for owning Philippines when at war  of course and no Tech.

I think it is a good game. Its pretty tough for the allies if the Japanese use the J1 attack tactic, but there are lots of ideas people have posted to fix that. Its required for global and I think that will be the best A&A yet.

i like to listen to Gunkan March when i play as the japanese. this is their naval march. easily found on youtube

@Frontovik:

attack round 1 on kwantung, put huge IC there
build 10 inf, and after those 10 keep building tanks and mech inf
move them to india through burma route and watch UK get kicked out of the board

No T1 attacks, please, its far too early. Just think about it, do you realy want USA to collect 62 IPC, UK to collect 37 IPC and ANZAC to collect 18 IPC when you still are on less then 30 IPC ?

You need to attack Kwangtung at the same time you attack Phillipines and Malaya. To do this, you will need to take control of FIC in T1, and then move your trannies into position for several attacks. In T1 you only have like 3 trannies. Your best opportunity to attack will be in T3, or maybe in T2. Not later, and not earlyer.

UK 37 is a huge lie

13 is more accurate, malay can be takes round 3
US + 40 is nothnig compared to what they lose
take kwantung with land forces :)

just like in real life
that’s what i like in this game: you’ll have same discussions of 1940 as in reality

i have read a book about it, some were pro war 1940, some 1941, some pro war China, some pro war USSR

each case: it has its advantages, but disadvantages.
only depends if there are more pro’s than con’s
