I saw in the Spring 1942 forum some1 made a new Battle Board - Game Aids - IPC Chart

Any1 making this for 2nd edition? Would be great i think!

i 2nd this! Would love a big battleboard and would REALLY love a technology chart since it’s now not part of the game.

94Canuck told me he would make one for 1942 2nd edition when he gets the game this month :)

All hail 94canuck!

@WILD:

This game would be so much different with an “optional straight rule” for Denmark, and Gibraltar (like G40).

just put it in  :-)

only thing we are a stickler on is trying to fight a new battle after it’s your NCM, or changing your buy during your turn. noob mistakes, if ruthlessly punished, will turn some off from the game. plus, i don’t want to win because of my opponent’s miscues. If a tourney, however, EVERY rule is letter of the law.

OOL - Order of loss

It sounds funny to my American ears is all. perspective is a funny thing. still have english blood in my veins, cousins. :-)

@wittmann:

Agreed. On R1 pull them back and If Japan goes for China with all his starting Inf you can move them  back if he does not build an IC in Manchuria on J1. Then he has to go back to protect Manchuria or carry on with his westward advance and risk losing it. Do not think Japan can attack both ways and keep US out of Philippines.
Keep those Russians alive as long as possible to annoy Japan, as are no Chinese reinforcements to hold him up.

i even march 2 singles from russia into china to slow em down. it’s gonna take 5 or more allied fighters to save russia, they may as well clog some land for the allies.

and not enough chips- if people do alot of SBRs especially.

i got 5 American trannies and 7 destroyers. pain in the arse already.

@wittmann:

Would love to, but after getting a �19 Import tax bill for my Cool Stuff 1941(already paid 30$ delivery) will not be buying from the US again. Pity.

wot da $u@k???

You have the world’s greatest A&A War room ever! I would suggest better dice though!

i never let the germans keep a boat!

@Mallery29:

Thoughts on the Eastern stack? I thought about the 5inf stack at Buryatia, but after seeing them wiped out easily on J2, is this even worth the effort (assuming UK puts great effort into holding India, this makes Buryatia a likely target J2).  Japan is going to take the 3IPCs from Russia with little resistance anyways (Japan will probably only lose 2inf), so why not just start pulling back to Novoborisk and use that as the initial line and fall back from there possibly J2/3 to Evengi to shore up the middle if needed or just head to Moscow?  At least if you hold at Novo, you will probably only be affected by 1-2 IPCs (IPCs lost sooner than expected, not per turn), and if you just go to Evengi, it’s really only a loss of 3-4IPCs (ditto) while holding on to 15IPCs worth of defense (5[2s]).

yep, u gotta pull them dudes back and give up the coast to Japan. Those dudes are alot better a few spaces west of Japan than they are on the coast.

@Most:

I’ve ordered both from Field Marshal Games and they’re in the mail! I should get them Monday unless UPS delivers on Saturdays. Can’t wait!
