E40 rulebook PDF?

This is an issue that has cropped up in numerous A&A games.  The box board photos are often taken by marketing department people who simply want to make the picture look pretty and who aren’t overly concerned about depicting things accurately.

Playin tomorrow, so, i should play with alpha 3?

@calvinhobbesliker:

As France, submit to the British player, who needs to coordinate with you.

Don’t think so, the British player submits to us first, then we’ll talk.  :-D

Last weekend I played Germany, and my friends played italy, Sov and UK/US.

After 7 rounds we concluded that Axis would win: The Germans was 1-2 areas away from Moscow and Stalingrad with 11 tanks, 12 inf, 4 art, 4 TACs and a bomber. Moskva has like 3 units and very low income. Also, Italy had captured Egypt on I4 og I5, and secured it with a minor IC. The US was still a large threath coming underbelly towards South France, Italy and north Africa.

Key facts

Germany viped all royal navy outside UK with the loss of 4 subs and 3 planes. Attacked France with all land units (exc 2 for Normandie) and 3 planes. Lost all ground except 3 tanks. - Ger Built factory in Romania and later Ukraine. Ger attacked Soviet on G4. Soviet produced superstacks on 2 of 3 front areas. They got wiped thanks to tanks/TAC combos. Germany had Italy ferry 2 infantery to Middle east, which later walked into Egypt for that sweet bonus. UK challenged Med with carrier on UK2 or 3, and it was painful for italy to rid. Had to buy subs to block and prepare for sneak attacks. Worked well. Iraq was attacked by UK, and lost. Retaken by Italy.

Ok, not very structured or detailed overview, but u get the picture. Axis victory.

A possible example (you can get the idea)

Okay, I have started the typing project on this. For now, it will be a plain white background until I can insert something “pretty”. To start, I’m typing the Pac40 book verbatum with all the new errata included where appropriate. At least we’ll have an “updated Pac40 book” to start with. I would also like to include a popular “house rule” section at the end. Let’s work on a list most of like and I’ll put that in too.
