Unless you lose your capital before your 1st turn……FRANCE…(I’ve seen Rome lost rd 1,but that was just stupid)
Its all starting to make sense now
-
Scotland. Now wouldn’t that be nice? Then Germany could actually do some two round assaults on UK if so inclined.
-
Canada doesnt have enough territories, or a canadian roundel
Central US is missing
some territories in South America are missing
The falklands arent on the board
French Central Africa is different
South Afirca has more territories
Sicily starts with an airbase, and is located within its own sea zone
Saudi Arabia is a single territory
Missing Northern Persia, Baluchistan
Territory arrangement in Russia is probably not right
Sea zone arrangement wrong, 4 SZ from Eastern US to England -
Umm Ontario is the province, Ottawa’s the city.

lol its not my picture. But its better than staring at some blurry altered image. And you know what…in like 3 weeks we will see the REAL board.
-
Thats picture has nothing to do with AAE40.

It’s a speculative map for the board. How is that non-related?
-
This is a wish list. It’s not based on the picture. Look at the sea zones and larry said already no Pripet marshes, and Albania is not on the map.
Look at the other interpretations of the map. This is totally different.

Then what’s that gray territory in Russia?
-
Per LH
Totally impassable Pripet Marsh is in the game.
-
well i stand corrected then.
-
albania is also on this map
-
I thought Oz did a nice job on this based on the info that was given at the time. Its not exact (he knew that) but its not to far off either. I liked the fact that he was open to other peoples thoughts and made changes along the way. That’s when this forum (and Larry’s) is at its best.

Imperious Leader, don’t scare me like that!!! :x

Pacific 40 was 90% the same as the original pacific game
Europe would follow the same trend, with the addition of some sensible territories. More distance from US to UK, more expansive russia, Italy added, North Africa more territories. -
Well in the actual map it looks like the Sahara goes all the way to the Atlantic, forcing the US to land in the Mediterranean through Gibraltar, or South in the Congo or South Africa.

True, by the time the game gets going into full swing……France might only have a handful of infantry in africa and its boats, who are slaved to the US/UK mega fleet
-
You seriously cant count the French. They are going to be used as British peices anyway. and the Sea tanks? (Cruisers) give me a break. 12 IPC for a unit that is marginally better than its predecessor?
As long as they are their own full power, the French can very well be counted. And no, they will not be used as British pieces according to Krieghund.
-
Idk, 4 Ships and 12 Infantry is way more than ANZAC starts up with. But can you Imagine how long the UK turn will take if they have to play as France, UK, AND Australia?
Exactly. France’s turn will probably be taken by either the Soviet or American player.
-
This is my idea
5 player game:
USSR
Germany and Italy
UK, China, and France
Japan
US and ANZAC
