We have resumed playing Spring 1942 after playing 5 other versions of AA. We have seen discrepancies with different versions of the setups. Can someone provide me with the latest setup cards for AA Spring 1942??

Yes, it should, but since the game has been obsoleted by a 2nd edition, it probably will not be. However, in cases like this where a rule is clarified in the 2nd edition which also exists in the 1st edition, it’s safe to apply the clarification retroactively to the 1st edition as well.

@Bunnies:

There is no errata/faq that I know of for Spring 1942.

It can be found here.

@Bunnies:

In case Krieghund comes in on this, here’s a question - what happens if the attacker couldn’t retreat to a legal adjacent sea zone? That is, suppose UK built a cruiser and two transports in the sea zone between London and Paris on UK’s turn. Then suppose Germany moved some subs to that sea zone on Germany’s turn (but submerged), then UK picked up and dropped off from London to Paris. In that case, UK attacked, but didn’t move attacking units, so then the attacker couldn’t “retreat to an adjacent sea zone that one of the attackers had come from” because the attackers didn’t move at all. Would that mean UK could NOT retreat in such a case?

Yes, that’s what it means. However, in this case UK could simply ignore the subs and would have no reason to retreat.

In genken’s scenario, if the UK fleet could not retreat the battle would end once the attacker was reduced to only planes and the defender to only subs, and the transports would be automatically destroyed.

They are the medium sized ones from Litko. The small ones are too small.

So using the Atlantic sub on UK fleet rather than the undefended transport with Norway fighter and bomber for the UK home fleet. I see it now. Guess i was foamin at the mouth on the unprotected trans. thank you

nice game.

had my first game of 42, was the axis. Did the Bomber buy 1st round, scared the UK with the new sub rules as the baltic fleet moved into the Atlantic. Scared the US away till turn 3 from landing in Africa and was able to combine on turn 2. Pulled back Japan’s navy, killed the Indian fleet, then turned back on the US Fleet. On turn 4 I was able to destroy both US fleets in the Pacific and Atlantic and took Australia. A few Allied troops in Africa and had left India’s IC alone except for buffering around it. Turned on Russia through China and after suckering the allies into throwing everything at Caucaus after i left most of the German army out to dry there, 2 Jap tanks were able to blitz from Sinkiang to take Moscow. Allies gave up as the Axis ruled all but the North Sea. Not too wacky of dice, save the loss of my German SBR bombers over Moscow.
I haven’t played AA50 much, but I am lovin’ the naval rules applied here!

gotta admit too that those new Russian ship sculpts are absolutely beautiful…sitting in the box never being used.

@Subotai:

We know that the map territories will be exactly the same as revised. We know that the naval rules from AA50 will be implemented in AA42. It has not been confirmed that all the other rules from AA50 will make it into AA42. My guess is that all rules from AA50 will enter the new AA42, with possible exceptions of the 4 optional rules in AA50.
At this time it’s only speculations, but it would be cool if also the optional rules from AA50 will replace the current revised rules.

At least we won’t have a broken China in AA42 :-D :-) :lol: :roll:

no new territories than revised???
serious?
would of loved some changes, like bigger north africa
but do like 1 thing bout revised map that i hate in AA50: scandinavia
(5 IPC is to much, and you can’t control it with germany for more than 2 rounds max)
