Latin America would have sided with Nazi Germany knowing they (being considered an “inferior” race)

Argentina and Chile were pro axis and had totalitarian governments. Also, Spain was the link to all of them and Hitler had no ill will against Spain. Germany already established glider clubs and many business relationships with them in the 1930’s

How could Spain support Hitler if he had this racial bias against Latin peoples?

BY the time Hitler might have won against UK and Russia, it would be at a point where they would have their own atomic weapons as well as Japan and I am not sure a B-29 was gonna take off any carrier with that payload.  In fact if they even bothered with USA it would be far in the future with a great consolidation of the recent gains.

This is exactly what I was trying to say.  It seems SILLY from the perspective of 42-45…  But these were LONG TERM plans for dealing with the United States.

There is a problem with long term plans. Germany would have become a huge socialistic nation ruling its people by force. That cannot be held for very long. The Soviet Union collapsed and they weren’t even at war. I believe that even if Germany and Japan had taken all but the US, they would have to fight so hard over it that they would give up and agree to peace. Then later the German and Japanese empires would collapse and break up.

I think that option simply allows you to select multiple options when you vote. Not that you can vote multiple times.

hmm, what about nuetrals?

I would say only buy tech if it could help you that turn to do something that was not prepared against. If you spend 30 on buying tech for six rounds (under those conditions) and get one on the sixth round that allows you to take UK’s capital or kill a 60 IPC fleet you have payed off. By buying in this method, you can increase your odds of having those “special circumstances” in which tech is worth it.

So why was the NZ IC removed for the sake of keeping with this rule when Japan already breaks the rule?

Can Russia send her fighter to London thus helping defend it and forcing Germany to declare war on her in order to do sealion? Would this work and is it a good idea?

Go Big Red!!! Nebraska Cornhuskers.

The Big 12 will be a joke the next few years without Nebraska.

Nebraska? Who are they? I don’t think the Big 12 will be a joke as long as UT stays in. I am not a UT fan, but they are a good team. The only joke about it is that they only 10 now.  :lol:

Call WOTC, tell them that you are missing 2, and they will send the replacements.

@RogertheShrubber:

I go a bit extreme with this.  I go to my local hardware store and usually have them cut me a piece of glass measured to size and place it over the map. You can get this done at Menards or Lowes.

Cost? Is this the same as plexiglass (I am hardware illiterate)?

My p40 had 21 ANZAC infantry.

I am just thinking that since Russia is such “a long way” from Germany, they could put out a nice large fleet and help retake UK/ help D-Day while slowly retreating their land troops. Make Barbarrosa turn around if  know what I mean; maybe even help put France back in the game. I guess I can only wish…  :-(

If Germany does a sealion should Russia build a fleet to take UK back or threaten Germany or just focus on land units?
Anyone built a fleet for Russia before (beef up that BB)?

@fanofbond:

If France didn’t recieve a carrier how long would it take before there is a thread here complaining about that and then call WOTC and call them chimps and demand a carrier for country that will probably never build it….ever

EDIT; super major grammer error

lol
Is your grammer fixed now?  :-D

About 6 years. I got my brother classic when I was around 12 (until then we did the computer version). When Revised came out I was captivated. I’ve played a lot of AARe (I even played it back when it was 2.0 and I think earlier.) I got AA50 and played it a few times but recently sold it. I recently got AA42 (about the same time as I sold AA50). I have only played a couple AA42 games mainly because I couldn’t get my brother to play very often and I was busy.

@munchie19:

possibly, it may be my last free saturday before school starts, which maps do you have?

AA42, AAP40, AAR, Guadalcanal, and old Pacific. I have actually never played my P40 yet :(

@calvinhobbesliker:

@reloader-1:

Easiest way is to use ONLY one countries units (i.e. - use only AAP40 UK and US units) and make a note of additional units brought in (should be none or close to none) from AAE40.

Here is the best way: whenever a unit crosses boards, replace it with an analogous unit from the other set. For example, if 1 bomber from Hawaii flies to EUS, replace the P40 bomber with an E40 bomber

Or simply move a bomber from your E40 box to your P40 box.

@gredert:

So if we badger WotC for replacement boards what do you think are the chances they never make an axis and allies game again? Cause they really didnt want to give me those jap tac bombers or the replacement battlestrip.

What the are you talking about? I called WOTC about something else and the operator was going to add a new battlestrip and tacs to the order without me even asking. (I had already emailed them about the tacs and battlestrip)

Want to come and play me this Saturday?

@shintokamikaze:
