A&A Miniatures on Pacific 1940 Board

I don’t see how Japan could ever loose unless the dice are god aweful. With Russia not there as a threat and US making significantly less money in the pacific. How does Japan loose, even with the new Alpha 3 setup?

@AmpsterMan:

I thought that you just counted the SZ next to where you were taking off from, didn’t know attacking counted as a move. Lol, I think that one rule interpretation might have changed a bit of how the game went….

Thanks for the update  :-D

And in case you were wondering, he attacked me in Alaska on turn 4, I repelled him turn 6, by turn nine I had every territory I originally had back in my hands. I was going to win.

We are going to play a game tonight (hopefully) I’ll have to reread the rulebook to make sure I don’t make anymore errors.

In any case, it seems to me that the only reason I won was because I was able to get all of my NO’s where as he didn’t get any. He also didn’t put enough boots on the ground methinks. Am excited to see how tonights game goes on. Thanks for the replys Calvinhobbesliker!

Even if you did that, that’s still 8 moves. Bomber from airbase only gets 7.

Anyway, you’re welcome

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

On Jan 6th I posted pics of battle boards I created along with pics of planes, airbases and naval bases.  I was e-mailed by a few people requesting a copy of the battle boards, so here they are.  You can just click on them, save them to a thumb drive, take it to a photo shop place (like Wally-World) and print in a 8 x 10.  These will probably not be favored by experienced players.  However, for novice players they are separated in to land or sea battles, completely graphic and not only used as battle boards but they also double as reference cards.  I have included notes on anything to do with battling, i.e. strategic bombing, sub hits on only transports in a SZ, AA guns, and Kamikazes.  Not so much to be used in battles, but quick reference.  I think I covered everything involved in battles, if someone see something I forgot please let me know……thanx…

Yes, this is really cool. Thanks for digging it up and posting it.

I’m pretty sure BILL is right. Japan will be able to take the Dutch colonies without consequence. Otherwise there would be nothing neutral (except China) for Japan to attack and no need to keep the US out of the war for the first few turns.

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