We usually play AA50th, but …
For 42.2, if we bother to worry about balance, we use a standard bid format (if everyone agrees) based on starting IPC’s (I’ll play axis at +X IPC’s to start … whoever uses the lowest +IPC bid plays the axis).

So the Allies are a bit behind in this game as it stands, and talk has been made of giving them a bid, a process I dislike.
So instead I offer the following addition for the allies: Each allied power gets 2 more AA guns. Since these units are purely defenisve in nature, it slows down the axis a tad, without giving the allies more firepower. Place them as followsSoviet Union
Karellia S.S.R.
BuryatiaUnited Kingdom
Egypt
Eastern AustraliaUnited States
Hawaii

Interesting. I’ll have to give this a shot next time we play. I don’t see the Haw or E. Aus making a huge impact, but the other 4 could conceivably help the defense of Moscow. Or India, even.

The Hawaii one just adds another hit for later in the game if Japan tries to take Hawaii, same with E. Australia
I just thought it was easy to just add 2 per power. And AA guns are just defense.
I think Egypt might become too much of a hurdle for Germany with an AA gun though.
