Little doubt about the rules, can you help me?

You’re right.  AA guns fire only during Combat Movement in Classic.

See my post in the Software Forum.  There is an updated patch.

@RogerCooper:

In the 3rd edition of the Classic rules, air units were allowed to retreat. The 3rd edition also provided for sub submergence. I will need to add the stack thing.

The third edition was the CD version. The CD allowed many illegal actions (plus it did have some optional rules that you could use or not use at your discretion). The items I listed above were not permitted by the rule set that was published with the game. The programming was flawed, allowing the actions you describe to occur, and many CD players then played the game allowing the use of these flaws, incorrectly interpreting the flaws as rules revisions.

It did not make it part of the “classic” rule set.

If you want to add another subset for comparison, then by all means add “3rd edition” - enough online CD players used the rules you cite to qualify it as a separate rule set, but if you are not going to distinguish it as a separate rule set, then I would encourage your comparison chart to use the published rules for Axis and Allies 2nd edition as the point of reference for “classic”.

Doh!

:oops: Mea minima culpa. :)

Back to CinC Skool…

Are there 3rd Edition Rules for the A&A Boardgame? I heard that there are 3rd edition rules for the computer game, though I have no idea about the validity of this statement. If so could somebody please post a link to such rules?

Thanks! I did find a pdf version of the 2nd ed. Rule Book on Hasbro’s web page. I’ll check out this other link for more information. Thanks again.

But, I like AAP, too! It’s a tight race.

Only way I’m building an India factory is if Germany does not attack Egypt on G1. Then I can transport two infantry from africa to India, move my tank to Persia…and move all UK air in range of FIC in preparation for a counter on UK2. With my 4 infantry and fighter in India all Japan can hit with would be 4 infantry and bomber and this is assuming Japan can take out the Uk tranny with a fighter…a low odds proposal from any angle.
