@Krieghund:

Control of territories changes during the Conduct Combat phase.  When a capital is liberated, all original territories of that power that are controlled by its allies immediately revert back to its control.

Thank you Krieghund, that will be good to know for the future. Turns out that didn’t come into play because he was unable to take Paris back (24 attackers, 24 defenders, all wiped out so I kept it) and the game ended, but had this been an issue he was being very stubborn. Thanks again!

Thank you for such a quick answer calvin, I think that’s the case as well. But his point is that since it was USA controlled at the start of the turn, would it remain a USA territory until France’s turn? I think it would revert immediately, but again I can’t find a line in the rules that actually says that.

I’m in a game of global right now, and a question as to liberating Paris has come up that I’m not sure of the answer to. I am the axis, and control Paris. My opponent, the allies, controls Normandy as UK, and Southern France as USA. He is utilizing the UK factory in Normandy, and has built a major USA factory in S. France.

I’m about to get my 14th city this turn, in which case he will crush Paris. However, he’s refrained from doing so right now in order to utilize the American factory on mainland Europe. His question for me is, if he liberates Paris, do the factories revert control to France IMMEDIATELY or will he still get to place 10 units for his turn?

I believe that it would revert control immediately, but in the rulebook I can’t find a specific statement that this is the case, and he believes that he should still be able to place his 10 units. Anyone know which one of us is correct?

I believe there is a way to save the layers separately, but I’m not 100% sure. If special  forces is correct, then you’ll want to save the image as a Paint.NET image (pdn).

I used a free program called Paint.NET for the layered image, and yes the units are from TripleA.

EDIT: Added German fighter to Norway. Added ICs, AA Guns, and Air/Naval Bases:

Although I believe a real setup pic will be posted soon, for those of us who can’t wait/need something to look at I made a setup map using the TripleA units and the info provided already by djensen.
NOTE: I did not include AA Guns, Factories, or Air/Naval Bases (just kept it simple)

Enjoy:

Here is a quick, full-board image that I put together using djensen’s map photos. It seems as India will look alright after all.

However I must say that because of the board split, the name of Western Germany is incredibly offset and looks strange in my opinion.

Didn’t Larry say that Cairo would be a VC?

Krieghund you said that the AA42 battle strip was included by mistake…is this only in certain games or in every game that was produced? Will any future productions have this problem solved?

A map that keeps getting better and better. I saw it posted over on Larry’s forums as well; hope he likes it as much as we do!

Yeah I’m excited to see how that turns out

I understand your reasoning, but I hope Larry isn’t planning for the two roundnels to be so similar, especially with so many bordering territories of theirs. Its not like its a Japanese roundnel and an Italian one :-P

Wow that map looks great, especially with the roundnels added it. My one criticism however is that the French and Italian roundnels are way too close in looks. Hopefully that will change so that they wouldn’t look so similar in the actual game.

Yeah, this causes a real problem. In AAP40, its Japan vs. USA, UK, ANZAC, and China. So its most likely:
Japan
ally
ally
ally
ally

OR you can combine UK/ANZAC and USA/China

In AAE40, theres Germany & Italy vs. USA, UK, France, Russia. So its most likely:
Germany
France
UK?
Italy
Russia
USA?
In this instance, France would be take out G1, so perhaps UK could take its place.

Or perhaps theres no Russia or USA until they declare war/get attacked:
Germany
France
Italy
UK
Then Russia and USA can enter to a certain spots when they join the war.

Finally, in the full game, it must be something like:
Germany
France
UK
Italy
Russia
Japan
USA

Now you left out Japan and China. :roll: Or are you only guessing for AAE40 now?

@idk_iam_swiss:

Thanks kreig. Heres my guess.
Germany
France
Italy
UK
Japan
America
China

You know you forgot about Russia right? :roll:

oops, didn’t see your reply when I posted Brain Damaged

SZ means Sea Zone :wink:
