    Maybe a month after will be the announcement of it’s release. But you can bet the errata will be out the day of.

    Well, for that we would be grateful - really enjoyed the AAP40 one.  :-)

    As with the Pacific game, I would suspect that WotC will send a copy of the game to DJensen for him to preview right here on A&A.org about a month before it is due to be released to the public.

    True…so late July we should have some pics of the board, pieces and material at least.  Maybe a peek at the global rules and such too.  Oh boy… only 4 looooooooooooooong months to go!!! :-(

    I guess that means that your A&A 50 Anniversary Edition Reprint has been pushed back as well :roll:

    No, I think that no-print is right on schedule.  :lol:

    The 50th anniversary reprint will come out after the 100th anniversary edition.

    C’mon guys don’t give up hope yet on the AA50 reprint…Oh wait I forgot this is WOTC were talking about… OK then give up- I have. :? :-(


  • Questioneer, Weren’t you the leader of that cause?


  • @Yoper:

    The whole A&A system is now based on the rules that were designed for AA50.  You need for that game to be in circulation to flesh out the A&A line up.  Base game= AA42, Advanced game= AA50, Theater specific/Global game= AAP 40, AAE 40, AA 40 Global.

    My thoughts exactly, Yope.  I’m sad I got on the A&A bandwagon too late to get AA50 without having to pay hundreds of dollars for one of the collectibles now…  :-P


  • @Yoper:

    @Brain:

    Questioneer, Weren’t you the leader of that cause?

    Yes, he was.

    And they actually gave an “official” answer saying that they were going to eventually reprint AA50.

    Sorry Charles (squirecam), but I don’t think that they specifically were jerking us around and lied about a reprint while waiting for the AA40 games to come out .

    They may have made a commitment to a reprint at the time and are now being forced to reevaluate it in light of other circumstances, but I think that they were sincere when they said it.  The problem is they have a track record of not doing what they say they will do.

    They should reprint the AA50 game like they said they would do.  I can accept that it may take awhile for them to get to it, but they should follow through on their initial statement.

    The whole A&A system is now based on the rules that were designed for AA50.  You need for that game to be in circulation to flesh out the A&A line up.  Base game= AA42, Advanced game= AA50, Theater specific/Global game= AAP 40, AAE 40, AA 40 Global.

    Well said my friend, that is exactly my feeling and thoughts.  Of course, you can’t call the reprint “Anniversary”- however you can change it to “Deluxe” version.

    When or if they do reprint it you can probably see that:

    1. It will be cheaper- more like $60 bucks than $100 originally.

    2. Because it will be cheaper it will actually BE CHEAPLY MADE (don’t expect the nice components as in the first print- expect a lot of things to be “cheaped out” as far as material and components).

    3. At least we will have the reprint so I guess we can’t complain too much.  It is a great game with solid mechanics-one of the better versions if not the best. :-)


  • So what are you guys saying that there will or will not be a reprint?


  • Stay on topic. This is only a thread about when AAE40 is coming out. Talk about AA50 reprint in another thread.
