    Good news guys! We’re getting our bombers! Check this out. WOOHOO! I just got in my email:

    Variable,

    We have placed an order for a replacement battle strip and will ship the replacement to you when we receive the corrected strips in which should be around February. I am also sending you a few extra Japanese tactical bombers now.

    Thank You

  • What was your email leading up to this? The response I received said they wouldn’t be sending units (unless they were missing or broken).


  • Yeah, What do I need to say to get me some bombers as well?

    Here’s my email to them:

    "Hello again,

    I purchased Pacific 1940 a few days ago and understand I need to register here to receive the corrected charts for the game. Is there anyway to also get corrected box tops for the new setup info? And, like everyone else, I will ask for a few extra Japanese Tactical bombers as well.

    Thank you for your help."

    That’s it. Nothing special. Apparently Pat is the one to talk to and not Jamie.


  • Thanks Variable I shall give it a try.


  • What is the email address?


  • Dang. I sent in my request for a new battle strip already. Oh well, maybe they’ll just send out pre-packaged boxes. It would be nice.


  • Well tell them that you just realized that tou don’t have enough Jap tac bombers as well.

    @Vareel:

    What is the email address?

    wizardscusthelp@wizards.com  is the only email address. They all take turns responding from the same address.

    The way it worked for me was I sent them one email explaining the problem and they sent two emails back a couple days apart. The first said basically they know about the problem. The second was after many complaints about bombers. They realized something needed to be done. I think if you registered for the new battle strip they will send you bombers too. But it’s not a bad idea to contact them again through your customer service account on their website.


  • @Variable: I’ll probably do that. I am missing a Dough-boy, anyway.

    I’m not so sure this is true Variable. After reading your initial post I contacted wotc by phone and they stated rather emphatically that replacement units were only for games with incomplete/damaged units. In fact , they wanted to know where I came by information to the contrary.

    Just a quick update on this - I still have yet to receive anything despite what their email said. I will keep you all posted if I get anything or not. Maybe I believe what I’m told too easily (read gullible).

    I do not think they would ship extra pieces with out the new battle strip.  SO that is what I am holding out hope for.

    Did you send them some bananas? :-D


  • Why does everyone call WotC chimps.

    I rather like chimps, and I fell insulted having WotC sharing an equal intelligence status.

    Stop riping of the chimps. :lol: :lol:

    My wife has taken to calling them “WrongC”.


  • WOW, there are a some disgruntled customers here. This is the first time I have read this thread.

    I actually have not yet purchased the AAP40 as we still play the AA50 and I already own most of the other prevoius A&A games, so it was not critical yet. I was planning on going to get it soon, but now I am wondering if I should wait a little for the corrected reprint version that usually comes out when ther are “bugs” to fix. Has anyone heard that WOTC plans to fix the issues and re-release?

    On the issue of the map, is there a map link that one can print in full color and laminate?
    This would be better then what is being described here. Just a thought.

    What is the issue with the pieces exactly?

    Thoughts from anyone? :-)


  • For 1, there is only 6 Japenese Tatical bombers.

    Japan starts off with 10, in 6 stacks, including 4 in Japan.
