What do we want in AAE40 that we didn't get in AAP40?

I would recommend apropiate soviet terretories!
Briansk, Wiasma,Orel w. Victory points as well as Lenningrad,Stalingrad,Karkov,Smolensk and Kiev.
-Stalingrad ,Briansk and Orel should have more lucrative IPC’s to attrac axis player
-Stalingrad should have a harbor for the black sea
-Turkey as neutral should go to axis after you cross or gain the crimera terretory and switch back to russia if they regain the crimera, anyhow turkeys buisness should be that, that they open the bospurus for their ally who owns the crimera at that time!….
this will not result in an additional player, more likley as a automatic or tech.
such a tech could also apply for Italy/southern Italy and France/Normandy france where the nation switch to the opposing side…

just a thought

@Razor:

And if possible a neutral infantry sculpt. Togheter this will be a mold with 6 different sculpts in neutral light grey.

I’d think two different sculpts - Axis and Allied - would suffice, no?

I tell what I don’t want in AAE40 : A lonely russian sub in the Barents Sea. 
Please, please, please. This sub has always been useless since AA was born.

HUH ? Come on mate, that sub is the most important piece in the game. I use to name it “Red Octobre” and pretent Sean Connery is the captain, and then I sail it around the globe.

Yep, that sub often did me a lot of good. Killing lonely German subs, reinforcing the British fleet, restricting German sea movement, stiuff like that.

And BTW, what are ACME walls? Territories China can’t enter?

How about air to air combat rules? I want the Battle of Britain. Maybe tweeking the airbase rules a bit could achieve this.

Chinese coloured fighter and artillery (although I never get to buy any).

Chinese fighters in Europe ?  I’m not too sure about this, but hey, now that Volvo is Chinese, why not.  :-)

Roger that. The primary role of ftr AC is to kill other ftrs and, in doing so, establish & maintain air supremacy.

While the scale of combat is very elastic it still bothers me to have hostile air strafing at each other’s PBI while blissfully tipping wings at each other.

Sure. They’re hot on the heels of the Japanese spearhead to Moscow.

I got a bit carried away with things that could be done better and forgot that it was only for Europe…

@Brain:

Well maybe they could throw in some added AAP40 pieces in the AAE40 game to make up for their shortsightedness.

they’ll probably provide double the number of French tac bmrs and call it even.

@Brain:

Yeah French tac bombers that won’t even get up in the air to fight.

of course not, Monsieur!
how can you fly with both hands raised!
Sacre bleu!

Falling from an airplane :-D

Now that’s funny! :-D

Bingo! I call ACME walls because China (as W.E. Coyote) cannot pass them and Japan (the roadrunner) can merrily pass them with a beep! beep!
