hehe…

I play Warhammer.
My 2 armies are Lizardmen and Bretonnia. :oops:

In fact, I’m not a good A&A player…
What I want to say is just about the probability problem…
Yup, I know that Tank plus Inf cost more… but its attacking power can sustain longer.

Em… how about making small group of army of these 2 types with same cost (e.g 20IPC vs 20IPC) and see their efficiency?

Sorry… I’m just a newbie to A&A… :oops:

@free_planet:

For Inf + Art:
2 hits: 1/3 * 1/3 = 1/9
1 hit: 1/3 * 2/3 + 2/3 * 1/3 = 2/3
0 hit: 2/3 * 2/3 = 4/9
(i.e. 5/9 or 55.6% for at least 1 hit)

haha… :D
I’ve made a silly math mistake here… :oops:
For 1 hit, the sum should be 4/9

so… still 5/9 or 55.6% for at least 1 hit…

Em… sorry… I think the prob. you’ve calculated are wrong…
Here’re mine:

For Inf + Art:
2 hits: 1/3 * 1/3 = 1/9
1 hit: 1/3 * 2/3 + 2/3 * 1/3 = 2/3
0 hit: 2/3 * 2/3 = 4/9
(i.e. 5/9 or 55.6% for at least 1 hit)

For Inf + Tank:
2 hits: 1/6 * 1/2 = 1/12
1 hit: 1/6 * 1/2 + 5/6 * 1/2 = 1/2
0 hit: 5/6 * 1/2 = 5/12
(i.e. 7/12 or 58.3% for at least 1 hit)

So… it seems to me that Inf + Tank does better in 1st round…

Just my 2 cents :roll:

@lnxduk:

Inf + Art = 7 ipcs = 4/6’s hits/rnd
inf + tnk = 8 ipcs = 4/6’s hit’s/rnd

so it’s cheaper to buy art and inf, same hits, but cheaper

But there might be one more consideration for me…

I can just gather 2 more guys to play with me usually (sometimes even 1 vs 1… :( )

So… in this case… will AAP be the best choice for me?

If there’s only 3 (or even 2) guys playing the original AA, it seems that the axis force is still alone… no partner…

How do you guys feel? :wink:

The idea of Codebreaker is really cool!! 8)
Just like what the US did in the battle of Midway!! 8)

Hmm… but this technology seems a bit too powerful… :cry:

I’m just a newbie to A&A and I haven’t have a set of any version of it yet.

BTW, which of them do you guys think is the funniest and most chanllenging? I think that if the new versions (AAE and AAP) are more advanced, I’ll go straight for one of the new version.

I’m thinking of buying one too! In fact I want to have all 3~~ :lol:
but I don’t have enough money to do so…
So I’m going to have one only…

@GeZe:

no, get the 3rd edition! its more balanced out then the other ones!

Hello, I’d like to know when the 3rd edition was released?
