Does Alpha 2 replace oob Pacific/Euro for a global game?

[Defiance]

I recently received both Pacific/Euro sets. My freinds and I would like to use Alpha 2 as the premire ruleset for the  global game. My main questions are, how do you apply Alpha 2?Is Alpha 2 replacing oob? If Alpha 2 replaces oob, how and what do you use out of the original booklets? Before we begin, we agreed to establish a concrete ruleset,including any changes or faqs. If anyone could point me in the right direction I would be extremly greatful.

First, apply the Pacific FAQ and the Europe and Global Official Rules Clarifications to the box rules.  Then, apply the Alpha Rules.

Thanks Krieg. You are a life saver. My sets arrived today and I was scratching my head thumbing through the books. I gotta say, the effort that was put into the creation and playtesting of this brand is trully emense. I will start downloading the data from the links you suggested. I look forward to future games both online and offline.

Defiance if you write a letter to the WoC support you can get shipped 6 japanese tactical bombers and a correct battle strip for Pacific '40.

Thanks for the heads up Noll. I figure its going to take atleast a week or so to learn the rules. The first AA game I played was in Iraq,and we didnt have much time to learn the game. However, now that I am out of the service, I can learn properly. This site has opened up my eyes to proper build orders and strats. Thanks again for repling to my post.

Wait what? Is this because Japan lacks enough tac bombers, a problem that has always pissed me off?! I can finally get enough?
