@Panther it is still live. I’ll get a new link up

I am on a quest to convert most of my “pushing plastic” games’ maps to a larger roll up format. I have been able to do that with all of my A&A games thanks to this site! Does anyone have a hi-res scan of the History of the World Map? Either the New Avalon hill version or the Z-Man Games reprint is fine.

11. Now it is the Allied turn. The same procedure is followed as before. The defending CAP fighter shoots at the incoming planes, and they get to fire back.

12. The Japanese CAP fighter misses, but the Allied planes shoot it down.

13. Both planes select the same carrier group to go after. The ships miss their AA fire, so the planes are free to attack.

14. Both planes score a hit on the carrier and it is sunk. Planes must now return home.

15. Planes on both sides must land on their carriers. The US plane lost its carrier, and so must ditch at sea (destroyed). Both sides may reshuffle the composition of their groups. At this point, the Japanese player decides if they wish to retreat, and they choose to continue the battle instead. The Allies, however, choose to retreat, The Allied ships return to port and the Japanese fleet continues on its original mission.

@vicombat
I would have to say that the visuals could be a bit more concentrated on the game itself.

@Jermofoot Heck Yeah!!! Bringing back the old band.

Man, dz!! That’s worse than playing both sides of Robert E. Lee with no LOS limit, not upgrading, resupplying, or attacking with the Rebs left in marching formation in the open, and kept awake nights!!! A Yankee victory fershur

What in the world are you talking about!?? 8)

Has anyone played Close Combat 4 or 5?

I played Battle of the Bulge before and the Normandy one, which I think were 4 and 5… Never really liked Battle of the Bulge that much and I thought the tanks looked very “cartoony.” Normandy was much better. Enjoyed that game a lot (brings back a lot of the small infantry tactics from CC2) and it had some great detail and steller graphics. My favorite remains CC3 however, due to its ability to purchase units and the great amount of tanks to be found in the game. :)
