Looks like Japan built a Labor Camp in Korea

I see those cards you made. Interesting.do they take place of the NA’s? or are they lust like risk and you get one at the end of your turn?
Yes, they do take the place of NAs. For example, Russia has 4 cards: 1 for turn 1, one for turn 2, on for turn 3 and one to cover all other turns. Before purchase new units turn 1, russia rolls 1 die and follows the instructions for that die roll and lower on that card. Units acquired are placed on their slot on the card until the place new units phase of russia’s turn (so that the player can keep track of which units go in which assigned territories). At the end beginning of russia’s 2nd turn, they use the turn 2 card …and so on. These units are in addition to any “normal” purchases and do not count towards a territory’s production limits.
Ok great. I was gonna do something like that with AARHE… but i really grow tired of making hundreds of player aids. Its like working at Mcdonalds back when i was 15.
Another thing to add to the list…
Heck if you want to help us out it would be great!
its up to you.
Sure! I’d love to help. Let me know what I can do.
By the way, the goal of these cards (like so many other variants) was to point each player towards some historical similarity (Germany produces subs most turns, is likely to develop jets, rockets, etc). Also, I never liked the OOB techs or the NA’s but liked the idea of both.
Ok head over to AARHE NA’s we are working on Italy which is for the phase three map
We need about 15 total NA’s so that the deck of ‘cards’ will have many choices. Like your idea we made the NA’s random picked in a sequence (about 2-3 each turn we are currently looking at)
The cards and your ideas are right up our style of things.
Also take a look at our current NA’s for Russia and Germany which were basically complete, but if you feel it has some holes or you think some other ideas are better then jump in and we will come back and make changes.
We have yet to do Italy, UK, Japan, and USA
of course we will add your name to the contribution list for full credit.
But do help us with getting out some more ideas. Each nation needs about 15 NA’s and its better to have more and trim the fat off latter.
Cards for NAs can be good.
Random. Secret (until revealed). Anti-cheat.
Getting Krylon spray here in the Netherlands is not that easy, :? I’m thinking of using Tamiya spray for the job. See here for a list of colors;
http://www.rez.nl/tamiya/tam_85000.html
For Russia TS-1 Red Brown or TS-33 Dull RedÂ
For Germany TS-4 German GreyÂ
For Italy TS-32 Haze Grey
For Japan TS-34 Camel Yellow
For UK AS-15 Tan
For USÂ TS-5 Olive Drab
For China TS-3 Dark Yellow
For France TS-10 French Blue
any suggestions on the choice of colors??
Those paints are like 6 buks a can… If you go with krylon you got a huge can for 3 bucks.
Also make sure the paint is specifically for plastic.
@Imperious:

True… they are expensive. BTW, you use the same krylon for the metal pieces of Skytrex\ GHQ etc…?
Actually i do. I used to think that it would peel off but thats not true. Krylon for plastics may not work for metal, but regular krylon does work.
and dont use krylon for plastics because it sucks. It may sound weird but its true. its too watery
Arrgh… :| Couldn’t find Krylon here in Holland… So I went with that expansive Tamiya stuff, and with some dutch brand… Russia, Red Brown, UK Dark yellow (looks like sand…) German, German Grey, Italy, Haze Grey, and Japan i have tried deep or camel yellow. But this yellow isn’t staying on the molds!! :x I have even used a primer and still it won’t stick to either the plastic and metal… All other colors worked fine… Somebody knows what to do, for the yellow to stick??
you cant use that paint because its for metals.
Cant you order paint from USA via internet?
Is it some terrorist thing?
No shops, at least all the ones that i found, ship spray paint outside of the US. I read at one side, that they also just ship it buy ground inside of the US because of Federal issues… Don’t know of this makes any reason for you…
anyway, this sucks… because nothing seems to work
Ill look into this more and come back.
have to try another paint I guess
can you ship spray cans via sea?
I can but wont that be an issue with the post office?
I was thinking spray cans are not good for plane but maybe ok for ship
I meant my Krylon had to be shipped to Australia one way or another
Working on it… it takes time!
