The AA50 game we just finished the US bombed the hell out of Germany. We used the unit counter chips (red-5, gray-1) to show damage. It worded ok. Even if there is a mix-up and chips go flying (which happened) you tend to remember how many damage there was. What seems to get mixed up is how many tanks vs inf you had. Even if you had different colors to show damage (good idea), you might need two damage colors to show increments, other wise you could have towers in some cases. For at least 2-3 rounds Germany was damaged into double digits.
Some questions on the 1940 editions
-
Hey, got some questions about these 2 games, hope you dont mind answering some of them.
1: If combined will they be the same size as the AA50 map?
2: Are they limited editions like AA50 and as such will they be gone from the market soon like AA50?
3: Could someone point me in the direction of some detailed photo’s of the map?

1. Combined they’ll be more like 3 feet x 6 feet (AAP40 is about 3x3 feet, give or take)
2. Supposedly not limited editions
