I’m an IT geek and this is beyond me. I’ll keep my poker chips. LOL
However, I would LOVE to see this in action.
The program makes it nice and convenient. I always like to look back on what all the countries have received IPC wise. It is surprising when you look back. In most games all the countries seem earn the same number of IPCs (give or take 40 IPCs)
You start by typing “Program: AA50” into the Calculator?
sorry I should have been more specific I edited it now
i know there are quite a few threads (or posts in some threads) that talk about getting that printed so give them a search
I made this program last year, but have decided to post it now. It is for Texas Instruments Graphing Calculators. It will keep track of all banking functions that you would do with cash and will also keep track of all money spent and received and through out the game, which you can look at. Soon I will post the program for AAP40. I still need to write the program for AAE40, but once I do that I will post it. AAG40 will be much harder to write because off all the variable I need to keep with the same features I have set up now. Just copy it into the calculator as you see it here. Every time I start a new line, begin a new line on the calculator. (Every time you see the word store it is means the store button which is the second button from the bottom on the left of the keypad. It says STO with a little arrow pointing to the right) all zeros are indicated
Turn the calculator on then hit the PRGM button
Then arrow over to NEW
Hit Enter on Create NEW
then Name this what ever you want (AA50 is what I chose)
Once it is named The Calculator will display
PROGRAM:AA50
:
All the commands can be found by hitting the PRGM button They’re in their just look
Then type just a you see I used this : to begin every line here, but the calculator will do that for you

EDIT:Clarifications
check IL’s signature for the then link
OK. I got caught up again and it does seems as though most of you guys who say America is right there to do everything keep saying this and mentioning how much stuff they can get there. While for all this stuff to get there on the timetable you guys suggest they have spent all of their first 3 turns buying in Europe only and forgetting about Japan, and we have all played Pac40. All of us know if we never bought anything in Pac40 with the US and tried using only her starting forces Japan wins even if balance was perfect. By neglecting the pacific for that long America really won’t be position for much of and attack until turn 6 at which point Japan will have pushed their way through India and China and Closing in on Africa with some of their units and putting ANZAC in bind.
Now if Germany takes out the allies in the Med and the Allies go with America playing the main force in the Atlantic, Italy will have time to take out Egypt and push into Africa and wait for the Japanese to arrive on scene to take out the minor factory in South Africa.
Cool…something all of us here have the skill to do(I better not say that because u never know about some people)
If France didn’t recieve a carrier how long would it take before there is a thread here complaining about that and then call WOTC and call them chimps and demand a carrier for country that will probably never build it….ever
EDIT; super major grammer error
OK, now that I have finally caught up on this thread now I can make a comment. I don’t have Europe yet and haven’t played it yet, but I have played Axis and Allies enough that I do know how this can work out.
Calvinhobbesliker, I can’t remeber if he pointed this out orginally, has a good point with the counter attack by the German aiirforce and remainder of Italian navy. I have a hard time seeing a bad part to this. With that attack the allies will the out of the Med for a while, until the US arives any ways. Germany will have more than enough money to purchase enough replacement planes that they wont be hard off. Then It isn’t like Germany lost any of its fleet in the counter attack. The RN is gone on G1 and G2, and the German navy and airforce will still be strong enough take care of the rebuilding RN of a while.
Then Blitz you never really mention any ideas for how Italy is to recover. The way I see for Italy to recover is this. Once the Allied ships are sunk Italy will need to take Gibralter and rebuild a few critical ships in the Med and take Egypt. I don’t really want to mention speciflics because I haven’t played yet and don’t want you guys to jump all over me if I say something wrong.
Im so pissed off, i orderd mine from amazon while they said there was only 2 copies left. and I just got an e-mail saying it wont be here till the 15th of september! :x
that stinks
I learned the basic concepts of Axis and allies with DDay. I don’t think that it can be too much simplier to learn the game on that. When I teach people though it will always be with AA50. 40 is going to be too complex to teach a first timer on. AA50 to G40 will be a fine jump once they learn the basics on AA50. Then not only that AA50 is still a fine game to play, so I won’t be bothered not playing the newest game.
Yes but I when you do wind up with 5 ipcs it would be nice to spend it evenly
That would be nice….A house rule maybe?
When the Itailian navy enters seazone 100 (the one you need turkey to enter) Russia comes down and takes turkey with some tanks and whatnot from Italy and then the navy is trapped.
I know in a four player game with my parter I would control the US, Anzac, France, and China, and my partner controls UK(east and west) and then Russia. By round three France will be dead(for all real purposes because the only decisions let for them are minimal) and china will be nearly cleared by that point and I am basically left with the US and Anzac
