A few questions since I just got both games and started playing global:
1. Does France continue to draw IPCs after Paris falls? I know they give up their funds from the fall of Paris, but I thought I read that they continue to draw for territory still under French control.
2. Before Paris is recaptured, does liberated French territory IPC go to the liberator or France?
3. Since AB give one extra movement to planes: on an Italian turn attacking a British CV, can a fighter or tac bomber in SZ 95 retreat and land in Malta w/ AB (SZ96)?
4. I assume AB and NB give one extra movement to air/naval unit regardless of which end of the movement it exists. For example, moving from open water to the NB at Hawaii, can ships move 3 spaces?

Thanks. Merry Christmas! God bless the Soldiers who are away from home this season.

I really like these, thanks!

It would be great to see the Alpha+1 wrap up and get published before Christmas. I have played with others through the holidays but we are still using OOB until the playtesting is finalized. Would be a great gift from Larry combined with Bob’s setp up charts! Reading this forum and Larry’s, it seems that only minor adjustments are being offered, and often in contradictory AARs from players.

Good strategic level game played at the operational level. No need to get in the tactical weeds with complaints, the game’s ambition balances simplicity, history, and playability well. Just go with it.

Just a few questions. I have read these posts as well as those on Larry’s website.

1. Will Alpha + be published and replace the AA Global 40 rules and set up?
2. Is Alpha +1 an update to Alpha +?
3. Will you need a new map or are all the download maps just for electronic use?

I am following multiple forums on this subject and I think many of us would like to see LHG nail this one soon. After playing for 20 years I am looking forward to a XMAS break with friends and the new games, but w/o the fuss of evolving rule sets.
