I more than agree with templeton on the freedom to players idea. I appreciate the game offers a nice historical point of view, but it is the idea of being able to do the “what if” playing that makes it really exciting.

If you got the .Zip file I sent you then

1 - Save it to your desktop
2 - Double click it ot open it up

You should see two folders there (A50 .GIM and A51 .GIM)

3 - Highlight these folders and right click and hit copy
4 - Open Windows Explorer
(right click on Start button and hit Explore)

5 - Go to Abattlemap
(probably C:  Program Files ….  Abattlemap )

You should see a bunch of other .GIM folders

6 - Paste your two new folders there.

Then when opening up Abattlemap to use, just pick the '41 or '42 map.

Yes.

Shoot me an email at isfcco@hotmail.com and I’ll send you the most recent battlemap of AA50 (both setups.)  I don’t vouch for their complete accuracy yet, I still need to get a board! hehe

The upload folder issue has been fixed.

maybe i just suck as the axis, my online record in 8-1 allies, 1-3 axis, i have 1 axis game in progress no2w against sime that is in round 6 and its a virtual deadlock with germany and russia in trouble

Bid is something down to even out an inbalance in the game. Generally the Axis is considered to be the disadvantaged party. So both sides “bid” to be Germany. Player A “bids” 3 infantry and Player B “bids” four infantry. The player who bids less units or IPCS plays the axis team.

Low luck means that if you have six infantry attacking at one, you get exactly one hit, or three artilleries attacking at two get one hit. Now if you have four infantry and one artillery attacking then you have three shots at one, and two shots at two. Add these all up to get 7. So you get one automatic hit (because you have six) and then you roll the die for that extra one. 7-6 = 1. So you roll one dice at one. So basically whatever all your attack hits add up to divided by six is how many hits you get, the remainder is rolled (so if you had two fours and one two then you would have a total of ten so you get one automatic hit and roll one die at four.
