yeah i know but AA guns have kind of changed there role in the game. Before global it was: station you’re AA gun where your IC are to protect them and they pretty much stayed there even after you loss the territory the guns are captured.

Now they are more of a hybrid unit. IC defend themselves and the AA guns fight and die with your over units but in combat behave by far more differently then any other unit in the game. On top of that they are still a generic piece.

I think AA Artillery will fix the hybrid part of the unit. It can attack and defend normally. Die with your infantry. Have a “limitation” like subs but it’s can’t hit land units instead of can’t hit air units. And most of all they will be color coded for each nation. I’m hoping there a scupts for each nation but sadly I think there’s a good chance that the Allies will share the same scupts and the Axis will share the same.

i think they are the new AA gun as things are now we have alot of confussion. UK gets radar US builds an AA and ships it to france to reenforce british units who does the AA gun belong to again it’s been an hour of playing and seeing as they are all cardboard or grey i forgot who built it or where it came from… oh crap this sucks.

lets start with a basic question you’re going to get asked over and over again.

Can we have the complete list of each unit for the Allies and the Axis? We know somethings but are missing others.

How does SBR work? With the limited income I’m curious to know how they work.

Is there a Tech system if so what are the techs and how does it work?

I’m hoping NAP but i doubt it. It seems like this is Classic The Redo, in an effort to make it more historic

without artillery and tactical bombers and cruisers. It looks like infantry push is back.

Japanese tigers, British and American IS-2, looks like I finally have Heavy Tanks for everyone.

give him time he’ll post pics and anything else you want to know patience you must learn patience

the website says it’s going to be done in 2 colors. Burnt orange and Golden orange

We have the early war tank (light) with the Matilda and we have the Mid War Tank (medium) with the Sherman I would be completely fine with just one tank if it was late war tank (Heavy)

Thank you Hobbes for your help and the list is updated.

My hope is to have a source where someone reading the boards would see something they don’t know what it means check here and go back to reading. I’m not trying to standardize the lang. at all

i know but i’ve seen that question asked over and over again

I could deal with the Archer, Firefly Sherman, King George Battleship, Nelson Class Battleship and Implacables Class Aircraft Carrier. I would shy away from anything already done in the game by WOTC so no Halifax or Lancasters. If I really wanted to I could come up with enough British equipment for 2 sets.

I agree that the French Navy is sadly under-strengthed but as we stand right now, I would rather a French destroyer/cruiser combo over the battleship/carrier combo.

ok next conversation; So we have Russia, Germany 2, Japan, and then France in that order? Am I missing something? Is something in the wrong order?

I would much rather have a french cruiser and destroyer then a Carrier and Battleship. I would be actually putting the cruiser and destroyer on the board every game.

I would rather see a British set and a Japanese set before a French set but I guess I didn’t vote in that poll.

If I were designing a UK set these would be the units I would pick to use.

Airborne Infantry x4
Bedford Trucks x2
Gloster Meteor x2
Hawker Hurricane x2
Bofors Antiaircraft Artillery x2 (if A&A '41 uses the Bofors for AA Art. then add two more Commandos)
Bren Gun Carrier x2
Centurion x2
Short Sterling Bomber x2
Nelson Class Battleship x2
17 Pounder Artillery x2
Commandos x2
Bristol Buckingham x2
T Class Submarine x2

With this set, other than the Liberty ship, the British would have all there own units instead of using recolored American pieces.

I very much agree that using letters that appear nowhere in the word or words is alittle insane. The Navy being the biggest offender. I mean look at them top to bottom BB (battleship) CV (Aircraft Carrier) CA (Cruiser) CL (Light Cruiser) DD (Destroyer) SS (Submarine) AP (Transport) and even PT (Torpedo Boat) not one of them fit. I’m a much bigger fan of short hand like Inf. Art. Fig. Bmb.

Is he an Army guy? if so then I understand. I’m an army brat myself and that’s the only College football (by that i mean sports) game my dad would ever watch was The Army/Navy game.

Ok i’m realizing that my hard line opinion that the war is won and lost in Russia is alittle outdated now. For Germany the war is won and lost in Russia. Now Japan has choices to be made.

What lang. is offending you so I can fix it. So not to run into this problem again. I’m trying to be helpful not offensive.
