Very sweet this new global Alpha3 set up
http://www.mediafire.com/view/?7hif1zhorbz89#2tpx7m1dfb1av9x

Perfect on my iPad

:-)

have been thinking about it now, so maybe the wire was used to seal cabinets after past inspection. the wire went into a loop and back tru a lead ring. 
check the electrical/ fire inspection companys ;)

testing testing.
next grass, mudd and dark brown paint on the X
maybe thinner plate.

I came across this wireline roll, pure luck :)
my father owned a fire safety company before he past away fore many years ago, I was yust looking in the storage room, and there it was ;)
what it cost and where too get it i simply don`t no, sorry.  :|
hopefully not too exspensive.

but are you interested, we could perhaps make a trade,
30 cm (12 inch)barbed wire, u need 3 to 4 meters (13 foot) straight wire. send me a PM and maybe we can get a deal  :-)

its fun to DIY
make barbed wire around a prison camp, in the city etc… nice

the wire look big in front, so a new image with minis in front, rescues the idea ;)

Hey.
i found this thin wire, and I think it`s perfect barbed wire :)
this wire is used for sealing the handle on the fire extinguishers.
and companys that performs service and check, might have some to give away

thanks again for quick replay :)

i have A&A boardgame, spring 1942 ( the orginal, think 89 ish, its still complete), D-Day and the Bigboard Europe and Pacific. but unfortunately little game time, 10+ hours is hard to get from friends who are married these days. so when i was downloading the new rules first alpha 2 than 3, i saw the miniatures and became curious, its a faster game, the pices look nice, especially the tanks/ vehicles and mg teams, and perhaps easier to get new players interested, hope so.

about the revised cards i think i got the point,some units have been too cheap and viceversa for some other units, balanced strength ratio.

have now downloaded and printed out all cards that i have x2 from tintirinti and laminated them for better durability, another positive thing was the photos on the cards, made it easier, see who´s who.

thanks again

Tanks for the replay  ;)

i can see now that the crack shot is  sweet,
as a newbie i have to add a few more questions, and more will probably come eventually as the game progresses.

i see there is a upgrade to v2.0 do this applies to all or only a few single units.? i cant find all?

exsample: again the Vet,Tiger
v1.0 costs 65 vs 68 points (v2.0), with exstendet range 10 vs 12 (v2.0)
superior armor 2 vs heavy armor(v2.0) both have crack shoot
can i choose between them before the game starts ? or have v1.0 ended up in the graveyard for this spesific unit?

Hex,
i am going to build one large battleboard 3D scenic size 40/50" x 100" which way to put the hex ? with flat hexfront or 45 degree front?
or is it hard to navigate with only center marks compare to standard hexagons ?

anyway, i have to say that A&A miniatures is amazing, with 3 in 1 adventure that appeal to me, collecting, scenic construction and of course playing the game ;)

hey guys

has yust begun  collecting, so i am a rookie. in every possible way.
so i have som questions which i hope to get answere on :)

1. can u use/mixing units from the various sets?
2.why does the veteran Tiger from North africa set cost 68, when the Tiger 1 costs 56?
attacks and defense are equal and it seems to me they have quite similare special skills
is the difference worth 12 points for the veteran Tiger ?

thank you in advance :)

hei ErwinRommel
Fantastisk  :-) 
liker tanken på å kunne spille i bergen fra mars av når du kommer til bergen, jeg bor i nordhordaland (Austrheim) 1 time kjøring fra Bergen, og kan lett holde spillhelg her, kjekt med nonstop gaming med noen pils i arsenalet.
nÃ¥ har jeg kun spilt A&A 1942 1 edition, og nylig annskaffet meg 1940 Global bigboard  :-)
så all strategi studier og tester er tilbake til newbie stadiet, men spillopplevelsen er viktigst, seier og verdensherredømme får komme senerer LOL.

superb dice towers.  and with two towers its myst be an ekstra nice and trilling battle……awsome :)
have made one my self, love the DIY stuff, and no i am waiting for the spesial dice with the powers printet on them from FMG.

Hello A&A fans, pardon my franch ;) I`m from Norway, and uses Goggle translate. ;)

Thought to share some views about the Big board Europe and pacific 1940, which I have just bought, and I would appreciate your views on the changes Ive made, and initiatives ideas for further improvement. There is one home rule I am interested in, Is it okey to remove the conduct convoy disrution rule ? I read some reviews about the struggle Japan is facing in zone 6 from US subs, but will it change the fair starting point because some power will benefit  on this change ?

The game:
First, some little criticism. Still in general I am satisfied……
I opened the boxes, with stars in my eyes, but than I was actually a little disappointed.
They cost 170 $ each here in Norway, so I expected a lot, in relation to my good old originally A&A spring 1942 published in 1981.
No cash money( cash is king) simple battleboard with separate casualty zone, unit boxes without own apartments for quick pick.
although it was great with more earies zones, but than they was smaller and it become cramped, especially In central Europe. So whay make the tanks bigger ? I miss the ekstra zone on the side,fore the main areas, UK, Germany and now for the new powers France and Italy for the location, exsample the aircraft units 
The token for factory and anti aircraft gun was simple, and with some gaps between the boards was annoying too.  ( I am looking for a transparent H-profil for connecting the boards together…any tips )

The new strategic options is challenging for me in the beginning, and some frends of my who is new players, so the game do not scear them away, I have made some new  info charts.
Like the combined arms chart, in hands with the battle board, aircraft remaining move chart. And the reminder of the special tactic scrable. And the conduct convoy disruption rule.
I have made ekstra plasement zones for the UK, Germany, France and Italy. Every effort to limit the units on the board , inspired by the HBG  board, I have splitt the factory, navy/ airbase tokens, made them thinner and clued them on the board, so they don`t move around or interfering with the units.
I also fixed the battle board , lock nice I think
My next project is to make a easy remember chart for damage factory,air and navy bases. Its easy with the pre positioned,  but Any idees on how it can be don for example new purchases and upgraded factorys .

Long post, but it’s a great game and  I am dedicated or addicted…… Possible both.….:D will post some pictures later.

Best regards
JP
