    Why are people so adverse to putting it on the floor?

    They can’t afford a table?

    I asked why people DON’T want to put it on the floor

    They can’t afford a floor?

    Dylan … man, you are just too funny. I like reading your posts for a laugh if nothing else. Perhaps you don’t need my encouragement though.

    @Brain:

    The first thing that I will do when I get Europe 1940 is open it up and look at it, then I will look for all of the WOTC typos that are sure to be included.

    The typo lost for P40:
    2 artillry in Japan
    Paulau
    Honolulu on Hawai’i island(does this count as a typo? If so:
    Calcutta is too far inland)

    Anything else?

    Probable list for E40
    London touching the coast or way inland
    Washington in Chesepeke bay or North Carolina
    Ottawa in the middle of Quebec
    Brittany will be spelled Britty, analogous to the artillery typo
    France will have 1 infantary in Vichy

    2 artillery in Japan? Is there only supposed to be 1?

    I don’t know… We play on the floor a lot, actually. It is a nice solution if you can’t get to a table big enough.

    Personally I prefer a table. It is generally more comfortable to sit at a table, and less prone to someone knocking the board around or stepping on it.

    Nope. Japan starts with 8 infantry, 2 artillery, 1 tank, 5 fighters, 4 tactical bombers, 2 strategic bombers, 1 AA gun, 1 naval base, 1 airbase, 1 major IC

    No, some of us old timers cannot get back up off the floor after we get down there!

    When I’m your age I will be able to get up!

    How do you know this? You may not ever get to my age. When I was born the Dead Sea was only sick. I built a bench in my shop that I have ILs AA50 map mounted on under plexiglass. Nice and smooth so that all the pcs. set nice and level. Right now we have a small group of three. Yes I am the eldest. In the near future I will have the AA1940G set up over top of AA50. Maybe next year I will have ILs 1939 map mounted there with custom rules. Sorry I got started ramblin. I am lucky at my age that I can still find my way out to my shop. Oh well I guess one of the other guys will help me get out there.


  • stay on topic.


  • I will open the box and then come to the forums and read all of the complaints.

    LOL. Example

    UK doesn’t have enough infantry
    Italy’s Tac Bomber looks like crap
    Why are the US transports always getting sunk!
    Why does Germany have only 2 Mech!
    France is too powerful
    Russia is too weak
    etc.

    France too powerful that would be hysterical.


  • First thing I’ll do upon getting E40: go blind.
