@always-wanderer awesome work, well done. Glad you kept the spirit of the original idea and used similar illustrations as well. Love those tech cards. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

One more thing the Germans have too many u-boat items, can you make more dealing with luftwaffe, volkstrum, Waffen SS, or perhaps even have a collection of “Generals” that aid attacks and you can play one per turn?

Thought of something with these ones:

Like tactical bombers able to defend as interceptors and a defensive system in the Baltic for the Germans including naval mines and the coastal batteries on the Danish straight…something like whenever an Allied fleet moves into SZ5 you roll a die for each sea unit…a roll of 1 is a hit, similar to AA. Waffen SS could work…whats on your mind?

@LHoffman was thinking the same…even though the advantage is called Most Powerful Battleships in the Revised Ed… changed it… also the Flying boats its now Sub-Hunters, makes more sense as I definitely wanted a de Havilland tactical bomber on the image… :)

Nice! I was trying to wrap my head around a Hornet or Mosquito on a Flying Boats card and understood your intent, but I think what you changed to works better overall.

Again, great set of cards. I followed Young Grasshopper’s Delta card deck with great interest a few years ago and have been collecting art to create my own at some point. But this set is very simple, is based in established A&A legacy and the aesthetic matches perfectly with the A&A brand.

The German Advanced Research card is genius, both in the illustration chosen and the reasoning behind the card. Easily my favorite.

Thanks, glad you like it ;) I believe the biggest challenge was with the Free French cards and a getting a dynamic mechanism for these. The idea for the Flying boats card was to have a Short Sunderland aircraft on the image but the British A&A tactical bomber is a Mosquito… so went for a pic of this one instead…but the title doesnt match… I think sub-hunters is a broader term and makes more sense altogether. Otherwise… this would be the card:
