Hi, could you post list of pieces? Thanks

ROFL

@NaptownMVP:

Are you limited to the amount of IPCs that you can claim per turn to the number on the tracker (40, I believe)

no

you ain t limited by the tracker
:-)

Ok, i was just pointing out that it should be IPC instead of iPC  8-)

hi,
1.- what paper size should i print it on?
2.- error on NO chart- Germany "+5iPC: Germany controls Novgorod (Leningrad) "

Interesting ideas, however, i don’t think this is a way to go for A&A. I think it’ll be simply revisions of the current games +maybe soo wanted new tactical scale games (Stalingrad, Midway, etc.)

well, most of the people will say no, but… you never know- i mean, there are thousands of strategies that were not tried by anyone.

hi, i was looking for Alpha 3.9 rules/setup, but i can not find it anywhere. Can someone please post a link or a .pdf ?

I rally like the idea of adding your own units, design of app is good too from what i have seen on the pictures. I looked for some A&A app on google play some time ago, but they dont look very well. I would definitely buy the app if it comes out. Good luck.

hi,
would be nice to have such thing, could you make a 1942.2, and 1914 version of it too?

Hi,
well, it pretty much depends on france player, but my fav is to get Switzerland on G1(this will force france spread defense between lorraine and burgundy) push hard on belgium and lorraine too. Its crucial to get as many fighters as possible there ASAP, they give you huge advantage in massive battles (France already has one in reach of front, so you really need them there quickly).
Buy lots of inf too, you will need them as cannon fodder.
Later in game, tanks give you some advantage when attacking, but they are more efective in smaller battles (western front is definitetly not).

Thanks, I will try some strategies next time I´ll play, I´ll post results.

Too bad they won´t send it in central europe… :|

I was thinking about what to do about 90% of Atlantic navy being destroyed after G1
Here is what I´ve got:

Russia:
You need to hold the Eastern front for as long as possible (at least 5-6 turns), you need to keep Germans occupied.

UK:
Build an IC in Eastern Canada on R1, and something to slow down Japs in Asia.
Move any UK navy in Atlantic that survived into SZ10
In SZ10 prepare 8tr. some DDs, An AC (load it with FIGs you start with in London) a BB or two, a CC or two.
In London prepare 8 Inf, 6 Arm, 2 Art, build some Bombers and Fighters in London too.

US:
Same navy as UK (except for AC)in SZ11,
8Inf, 4 Art, 2Arm, 2AAA
Build a lot of Figs (4-6) and a bomber.

2 turns before invasion: move your Figs to London via E. Canada, (you´ll need 2 turns for this since London is 5 spaces from EUS)
1 turn before invasion: load your US transports and move your US navy into SZ10

DDay:
UK:
Move your navy to SZ8, load transports and assault Western Europe with UK, throw everything availible into battle.
Your goal is to capture it at all costs (even if it would mean losing Bombers and Fighters).

US:
Since Western Europe is now UK territory, unload everything into it and move there your fighters to protect it from German counterattack.

Notes:

• Do not neglect Japan! Maintain some fleet in Pacific so Japs won´t hurt you in your back- this was fatal to me
    when i first tried this strategy- Japan attacked Alaska and my 3 tanks weren´t able to destroy Japs 2Inf,1Arm
    this lead to opening WCan and WUS without leaving me any chance for counterattack.

It redirects me to some e-shop… :-(

Yes, I was talking about those, I was also thinking about their role in sea battles (against Subs):

Unlike fighters, they don´t need to end their move in a territory with friendly Inf, but they can move max 3 spaces away from a territory with friendly Inf

If there is an Airship involved in sea battle then:
Enemy submarines can not submerge and they can not surprise attack
Airships roll one dice against enemy Sub, hitting it at die roll of 2.

I was thinking about airships too, my idea:
Cost: 4 (I am not sure about cost)
Move: 1
Attack: -
Defense: -

It can provide air supremacy for Arty, it can not participate in dogfight, it can not strafe land units. All airships in a territory are destroyed when there are enemy fighters in that territory after the “Determine Air Supremacy” phase is over.

Thank you, It is a bit confusing because the High Tatras (part of Carpathians) seem to be right on the border of Hungary and Galicia in this game. I have thought that the rest of Carpathians is part of Romania.

I have heard that Phillipines IC is good too, I haven´t tried it yet though.

Hi
good idea, but:

These would be:

Spain, Norway, Switzerland, Tyrolia, Bohemia, Budapest, Albania, Serbia, Bulgaria, Greece, Smyrna, Ankara, Persia, Afghanistan, Ethiopia, S. Africa

I suggest Galicia instead of Budapest, since Budapest represents today`s Hungary, which is 99% flat.
