My modifications to A&A Pacific 1940 (new pieces, etc)

@The-General-0 said in What are the basic strategies of Axis and Allies Pacific 1940?:

… it appears that Honolulu does not appear in the rulebook as a victory city that is able to be captured. Unusually, it appears on the board. Is this historical significance, or is it merely a mistake or simply decoration or literally a victory city?

You must have quite an old print. Maybe download the latest versions of the rulebooks from

Yes, Honolulu is a victory city.

I think it is a good game. Its pretty tough for the allies if the Japanese use the J1 attack tactic, but there are lots of ideas people have posted to fix that. Its required for global and I think that will be the best A&A yet.

@Mino1124:

@cannon:

I received my “corrected battlestrip” and additional Japanese tactical bombers but the battlestrip is still wrong as it doesn’t show the tactical bomber/tank or fighter combo as hitting at 4 or less unless I am mistaken.

It’s a good start but…

Well you do gotta know that stuff though. Like in the 1942 edition (and I’m sure earlier) artillary supports infantry but the strip doesn’t show that. I understand how that’d be useful but if you want one that shows that stuff I saw a really good 1 in one of these threads (maybe even this one) to print off

Thanks forgot about the inf/art and mech inf/art combo.

I’m pretty sure BILL is right. Japan will be able to take the Dutch colonies without consequence. Otherwise there would be nothing neutral (except China) for Japan to attack and no need to keep the US out of the war for the first few turns.

The only thing I thought would be needed as far as replacing chits for plastic pieces would be the AA. The bases and factories I don’t mind having as chits, but the AA I would think has to be a piece because it can move.

I second that, very good post.
