Great, thanks Baghdaddy.  I needed MORE useless information in my head….as if I don’t have enough of that drivvel from my more esoteric professors (as in the non-math ones) to deal with, now I know the conversion rate between miles and knots per hour…

To 8 “decimals” too…

@Jennifer:

No, but I can force you to choose between not attacking at all and negating your entire airforce as an offensive weapon against my navy, or trading to my benefit.  And I don’t even have to invest a lot into offensively useless units.  16 IPC is about all I need to get a Carrier, the rest I need anyway.  Meanwhile, you now have 6 fighters, 1 bomber vs 2 fighters, 1 AC, 1 Surface Ship from Game Start and multiple transports.

Sure, I’ll lose some transports, but I’ll take out your airforce.  Or, you let me land uncontested. :P

And that, in a nutshell, is what I mean when I say that navy is better against airforce then airforce is against navy.

AMEN!

tell it like it is brudda!

(shrugs) it’s all about the game!  don’t hate the playa!

Yeah, lets just say I’m on a fixed income the printing shop idea isn’t in my budget.

Thanks for the advise,

Thanks Frimmel you have been an awesome help.  :-)

Does any one out there have any ideas or concepts they use for the Allied side of the board?

I know you all have heard this before and a re getting sick of hearing me. I’m posting this “ad” every now and again just to see if new members are out there, or old members in the service move here.

Wanted: any one physically capable of playing A&A classic, revised, Europe, Pacific, BOTB, Mini’s. Around here there are slim pickin’s

@losttribe04:

I know how to turn a computer on, off, check email after that it starts getting gray. Does any one know of an on line A&A game that can play multi player where all five sides are represented, and play at the same time. Not posting results back and forth like triple A. Is there such an animal out there???

You know you CAN play TripleA live, right?

You DO know that, right?

Well . . . I guess you know it now.

Wow a whopping six votes. Hold on I want to make sure I counted right. (don’t want a recount demanded).

I kinda thought thats how it would play out. But I do think that Agent orange makes a good point. Then again I suppose I guess it depends on what you are looking for in a game.

Well in his defense i actually have 2 games (using d12 system) that have both a primary and secondary attack ( the primary is pre-emtive)

but the economy of scale is quite different from regular AA

arMY Jor: I just had the worst patrol ever. we got ambushed and we were shoootin at those damn towel heads for hours. i got shot 13 times. run out ammo at had to knife 5 guys. made a trip wire out of their entrials. the damn blood every were. glad thats over and were at base. so i can play some DDR. OMG. this is so totalyyyyyy cool. don’t you just love the colors. OMG!!!

:lol: :lol: :lol:  i don’t think army plays ddr.  :lol:

That was funny, but I thought you were going to take it in a different direction.

Something about a dance off with Charlie, or how his dance moves made him able to dodge bullets.

that would of been funny. matrix style.

Definitely, and not a bad option for the US either.  That sub can represent useful fodder in a later battle instead of just leaving it to die at pearl on J1.

:-o
  I have several house rules, trying to get someone to agree to play them is usuallly the hard part.
      1. Armor can blitz into enemy territory in the non-combat phase, even if it causes a special," blitz combat phase"!
            Armor that have left over movement after their combat movement only.
      2." Combined Arms"; When there are Infantry+artillary+armor+air units combined in either attack or defense, all the units recieve a +1 in combat.
          So, if you have only three armor, then only they and three of each other troop type gains this bonus, irregardless of how many other troop types there are.
      3. Anti-Aircraft guns act as artillary too. Attack at a 3 and defend at a three. 88s’ were a bad ass gun.
                    +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++  More later++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

@losttribe04:

Hey Frimmel,

Why do people use bidding to pawn off the Axis player?

Looks like everyone pretty much covered it. Thanks all. Especially Darth for the stats.

I am not aware of any paratroopers in any game, except as an optional rule for “3rd Edition”, the Hasbro CD-Rom

Hey,

Yeah I found Triple A. I had posted a comment in another area asking if players here like the A&A CD-Rom game VS Triple A. Are you familiar with the A&A game Hasbro made for WIN 95/98. Don’t seemed shocked about its age I had it when it first came out joined the army lost it got out of the army and found it at Best Buy late last year so its still around.

My preference is for the CD-Rom version. I like it better for navigating. Let me know what you think. sometime this summer when the roads are clear we’ll have to play FTF.

Thanks
