• Trans Siberian Railway - Has anyone found this to be to powerful of a tool for Japan to reach Moscow to fast? being the fact that the rules state that you can use the rail the same turn taken over and no limit on the number of units that can use it at once? My opponent believes this is too strong for the Axis. Any comments?

    We play that we do not allow the Japanese to use the railroad and it works fine.

    There is no way a rail system could be used in that capacity……except in France!! The Trans-Siberian rail would be in pieces when the Japanese got to it. I think that as a rule u cannnot use the rail system of a fallen country, or you have to pay an IPC value to repair it. Thats my opinion.


  • This thread has officially been pinned!


  • How does China work? The ipc values… who gets the ipc money and how are Chinese units built and how many etc?


  • where is the map file


  • @cminke:

    The US Collects it $9 at game start.
    Chinese Units are built x2 from the Factory and 1 inf. on the Burma rd.

    Thats how we play it.

    :-o :-o :-D :evil: :mrgreen:

    Wow this thread has been Pinned.  Cool
    thanks


  • it was pinned a long time ago, like 4 months


  • So you got 1942 game (deathheads way), the 1942 with Monroes way with extra varient rules with axis and allies allies, and Coaches 1939 global using Deathheads map. So can I play with all three games using the 1939 global map. Then I would only need to make 1 map for all 3.


  • Gen Rommel,

    I think you should be able to use the 1939 Map with the Monroe variant.  It would require some adaptation of the Set Up and Income charts based on the additional and different territory names.  I would think you could use DeathsHead version on the 1939 map as well, but same challenges would apply.

    I also prepared a variation of the Monroe version which can be used as a 1941 variant using the standard AA40 Global map from WOTC.  I have attached an excel file of this variant (v1.9) which includes Set Up charts, National Objectives (pulled relavant NOs from LH’s Alpha+) and several National Advantages.  I have not yet playtested this version on the AA40 Global map.

    coachofmany’s site is a great addition to the A&A community.  I plan to buy the 1939 map at some point (I played the Deathshead Map to death  :lol:) and several of his painted armies.  This will really help complete the Monroe version (on whatever board its played).

  • Thanks for info. Maybe I’ll just get both maps. 150.00 total for 2  3 x 6’ maps. Still worth it. Then I can play all 3.


  • How do airbases work for movement and CAP’s?

    1. Example: I have a fighter in Great Britian, Do I get a bonus movement on take off and landing in/from any direction or just in and out to and from z23?

    2. How do CAP fighters work? Can you only make a CAP from an airbase and/or in the sz of an airbase?

    thanks

    On the setup card it doesn’t show where the China IC is?
    So the US is in charge of building chinese units out of USA’s IPC’s? up to the max the China IC can produce?
    Do they have a real IC they can be taken over and used by Japan for example?


  • @Deaths:

    I am Pleased to Announce that I am all done with this project.  There are still a few spelling errors on the setup charts, But I think you guys can figure it out.

    The long wait will be worth it.

    Pictures can be found on pages 7-8 in this thread

    This is a Rather large File and I blew the map up to around 6.5’ x 3.75’  I t small enough to fit on a standard sheet of Plywood and still have some room around the edges for all the “stuff” needed to play.

    These links arent working for me… Could you do something about this deaths head?

    The Set up charts work, Just not the Map  :x

    I can’t locate the disk in which it was on, So I can’t DL it to Media Fire.

    The Only Disk I have found is an Un edited Version of the map.

    My friend who lives a bit from me has the updated map on his hard drive. the problem is I keep forgetting when I visit him to get it.

    so if any one has saved it to their Hard drive wants to email it to me I will gladly Re post a NEW link for the map


  • I wanted to added light and heavy tank

    light tank
    Move 2
    2 or 3 just attack if the enemy possesses Infantry
    Defence 2
    IPC 5

    Middle tank
    Move 2
    Attack 3
    Defence 3
    IPC 6

    Heavy Tank
    Move 2
    Attack 4
    Defence 4
    IPC 8
    Advantage must receive 2 shot to be destroyed, and can be repaired in an area with a factory, it costs nothing.

    Give me your opinion thank you

    The Air base only gives Benifit to the Sea zone(s) it touches

    Cap fighters work just like in Pacific, You can only CAP a Sea Zone

    @TMTM:

    air and naval bases - how do they work? Do you get a bonus move if you take off from an air base and a bonus move also for landing at an air base? Giving a ftr 6 moves and a bmb 8 moves?

    Naval Bases let Ships and Subs move 3 spaces to a different Anchor During non Combat only. They can be used the turn you gain Control.

    Air Bases let Planes Gain a Free movement  into or out of the Sea zone the AB touches

    @TMTM:

    Neutrals questions: Say Spain is attacked by Allies and not defeated… it joins Germany… and has 1 Spain unit left from the battle… does that 1 unit now turn into a German unit? How does this work?

    We let the neutral Army rebuild to original strength and the country stays neutral

    But you can also Play it that way also. And in that instance the Spainish units would turn German.
