Interesting, I will have to check them out.

Oh yea!  Those are cool.  They sell those in four or six packs?

Cool, I like those dice!!!

And it’s also nice because you can add the 4 pack and 6 pack of dice from 41 and 42 2nd to AA50 because they are the same, or vice-versa.  Angels 20 dice are also the same dice as AA50.

Any of you guys other then myself, variable, and death from above going to pacificon?

Haha yea.  They only had one copy of each.

I guess I could use the sharpie and give myself the 'stache.

Yea it was a tough call but once I did it, it really made the map pop, looks more like a map now.

That’s so funny, I sharpie all my boards since AA50, I just can’t see the damn borders when the pieces are on it!  Just the territories in Europe and Russia, It really looks nicely defined and pretty cool.  I thought to myself at first that it was a little ghetto and shifty but hey, you gotta do what you gotta do. 
I was pretty hesitant to sharpie up my AA50 board but I’m never selling it. it’s so much easier to see the territories now.  My buddy I play with likes it better too. I swear in the first 42 game i went from Germany to Russia in two moves……oh well.

Don’t hesitate AA nation, take a few giant whiffs of that sharpie and trace away!!!

So, I go to my friendly neigborhood local game store to grab some War at Sea boosters and thought I’d check and see if they had 41 and 42 revised for sale.  I head back to the board game section and low and behold there they are.  I notice the price on 41…$65!
I thought that was a pretty stiff price so I gotta see what 42 revised is going for…$30.

My first thought was “Oh nice!  I’m gonna snag this 42 revised and save a bunch of loot.”
I knew right away that some rookie in the back got the prices mixed (THAT’S WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU RELEASE TWO DIFFERENT GAMES ON THE SAME DAY LARRY!)

Anyway, I just couldn’t take advantage, so I let the lady up front know about the mix up and she was pretty grateful.  I already received both games from cool stuff so no biggie for me.  If this was Target or Wal-mart, I would have grabbed them all and gave them to back to the people, like Bane in Batman, “Take back your Axis and Allies people of Gotham!”

Good karma however, I got the HMS Prince of Wales in one of my navy boosters and that’s one I’ve been needing for a while.

Oh yea, My man was asking $29.99 at one point, I guess its all about the market.  If he had the allies box as well then maybe it’s worth $5.

Now, If the dude selling the War at Sea Task Force booster could live in the “now” and bring down his asking price of $39.99 that would be lovely…actually, that might just be market value, we shall see.

No one bid on that!

Wow, Awesome!  Thank God this isn’t a real set or I’d be shelling out another couple hundres bucks, money well spent of course.  Looks like the Tsushima could really give the Montana a run for her money.

Thanks for posting these cards brother,  I never knew there was a minis forum until recently.

“What are you fish heads looking at?”

Yes, sweet!    I just got Angels 20 Tuesday and I am getting that collectible itch for these tiny little miniature lovelies!

I dont know what to type :-o

Holy crap!!!  they look great, my 5 year old said thay looked like candies…I had to laugh, and then I sent him to his room.

Well done my man!!!

I was wondering if yours was there too.  Bummer

Pictures brother…we need to see those!  My box of goodies is sitting in some FedEx warehouse in north Salt Lake City.  Still a long way to California.

Not cool if you live in California…says I won’t get mine until the 31st…Balls!

I also noticed cool stuff has 41 available buy it now for 29.99 free shipping.  Says it will ship on the 27th.

And I as well!!!  I got 4 navel minis, 3 angels 20, 2 new AA games, 1 condition zebra booster and a partridge in a pear tree!!!  True story! Christmas in July.  Can’t wait.
