If they dont not give Canadian units a different sculpt I will use the British units from AA Revised. They have a lighter tan color than the now used units in AAP 40. For the new units Canada and the U.K. will have to share :-D

RE: Do you want canada as a powerposted in Axis & Allies Europe 1940
3 reasons why Canada should be a separate power:
1) Canada made at least a s large a military contribution to the war as ANZAC and a much larger supply/training contribution. If ANZAC gets its own economy so should Canada.
2) Canada already has a unique roundel represented on the Pacific map so unless Canadian IPCs must be “claimed” like Dutch IPCs then there is no reason for the distinct roundel other than if Canada is to be its own power. Furthermore, Larry has stated that “All Canadian provinces will be represented” giving Canada more territories than the continental US, Anzac or Italy.
3) If the UK was ever conquered by the Germans, Canada (as well as ANZAC) would have fought on along side the United States. Considering the heightened possibility of a successful Sealion, it is essential that Canada be a separate power to represent the continued production that would have come out of Canada if the UK fell.
I predict Canada will look and act much like ANZAC with a few infantry, a couple fighters, destroyer, a transport and about 8 IPCs at its own disposal. –It could be a great Sub-hunting power… who knows.
Not only that but they contributed to the D-Day invasion, in my book that deserves some spot light… I know I keep saying this but does anyone know if Canada will have its own controller marker?

Thank you for the correction. I agree, if not important in IPCs make it a NO.

RE: Europe mapposted in Axis & Allies Europe 1940
Cant remember where exactly but I got it from Larry’s website. I hop from this site to larry’s and that how I sometimes find this info. But most of the members here know about Malta already…Eh was kinda hoping Albania would be in there but I understand if it’s not.

NATO V.S. USSRposted in Other Axis & Allies Variants
Using any AA map has anyone ever played a NATO V.S. USSR game? If so what happened?

Malta is in the map but im not sure about Crete, I hope it is in there

RE: Sweden Rulesposted in Axis & Allies Europe 1940
I can see the pros and cons to that situation. However I think if you make Norway a German NO, players playing as Germany wont be so careless and actually defend Norway. What would also be helpful, is if you could scramble to a seazone without the territory being an island. this would add that historical accuracy because the Germans also had many airbases in Norway and with a new scramble rule it would make the British player think twice before invading.

RE: What do we want in AAE40 that we didn't get in AAP40?posted in Axis & Allies Europe 1940
Does anyone miss those marker cards in Revised were if a territory was too crowded you could mark it with a number and have all units in that territory stay on seperate card to avoid over crowding? I found it useful to keep track of troops on transports.

RE: Barbarossaposted in Axis & Allies Europe 1940
I always thought that if Germany took Russia in any A&A game…the axis usually wins the game…
In my past experience that was always the case. Im willing to bet that one of the German NOs might be to take Stalingrad.

RE: Sweden Rulesposted in Axis & Allies Europe 1940
Norway should be at least 3 IPC. Like someone said in another forum, capturing and keeping Norway should be a German NO. Since they did have a lot of iron ore that the Germans wanted.

RE: Technologyposted in House Rules
@i:
i like the idea of buy techs so on but the system to get them is dumb!
oyu dont invest money on somwhting and then when it fails you dont generly give up you kep tryingPresuming the 1940 Tech rules are similar to AA50, you won’t give up or lose any IPCs attempting to develop techs. They carry over until something is developed.
ya this one

The leaders could give a boast of defense when their territory is under attack :-)

RE: Technologyposted in House Rules
I would invest in technology if that system were to be used for the global game.

RE: Do you want canada as a powerposted in Axis & Allies Europe 1940
In my game im just guna make it its own power. The UK pieces from revised are a lighter color than the ones used for pacific and probably Europe, for the new pieces i will just use the new U.K. ones. And I heard somewhere that it was going to have its own territor marker as well.

RE: COD: Modern Warefare 2posted in Other Games
I got it with the FAMAS on Afghan. The trick to get it is of course Harriers, Chopper Gunner and Nuke. However When I was playing I was even thinking about getting the Nuke until I had a 11 kill streak. Just by relaxing and not worrying about it I was able to obtain it. Before I spent worthless hours trying to get and in a instant I was able to come up with the kills by using the Harriers. (All while one the phone :mrgreen:). But since I havent even bothered with it. Unless you cheat or are a COD GOD I see no way you can get the spinning nuke symbol.

RE: Europe mapposted in Axis & Allies Europe 1940
Do you think Albania should be on the map? It would give Italy another territory.
