@coachofmany:

Nice.
So how big do you think the map is?

much larger than anniversary, and will extend out beyond the standard gencon table. When placed saide by side with europe, it will be fantastic !

[johnnymarr]

Yipeee, I cannot wait, that is a big map indeed  :-o  I am going to go eat a bowl of cereal now cuz I am so excited.

• 1 karma to you for the pics, totally beautiful man

does anybody know if there is any Entry of this game at BGG yet ?

[johnnymarr]

there was not about an hour ago

[squirecam]

Notes:

Japan should be at war with the US by turn 3. UK can attack japan earlier (turn 1) but that will not trigger the US at war setting. [You cant just get USA at 50 IPC by attacking with the british]

The russian territories are useless for AAP40 but will be used in the “global” version.

French Indo China is indeed French !

Looks like China might finally be big enough to prevent a Japanese invasion into Moscow….

No pics of the plastic ? Did you see the new halftracks and dive bombers ?

[Funcioneta]

Yea, China’s map seems promising. Let’s hope chinese rules and setup are better than in AA50. Let’s pray at least same level of rules than old AAPacific

Come on, Larry, you can do this time!

I love those neutral mongolians printed on map, and also the Dutch national markers  :-)

@Adlertag:

Only the map was available to view.

[Adlertag]

Well, did you try to bribe them ?

Every man has his cost

[johnnymarr]

was the board fold out or seperate like AA50?

Larry has a sense of honor. That, or a fat wallet.  :-D

The map was one big rolled out jpeg printed version.

Not sure how it will look as the finished product.

squirecam: How many men did you lose in the battle getting those pictures?

Lt Hanley will send you some replacements for your platoon.

Everyone should give him some +1’s on karma!

Mongolia is cool looking on the map.

Any Larry assured me the Flying Tigers are well protected with infantry this time.

we may have to dig some more on the ‘neutrality’ of mongolia, there appears to be a couple of territories in there with IPC values and INF silhouettes or setup numbers of INF.  hmmmm….  Plus with it broken into multiple territories they may not be as neutral as previously believed…
