Rules question…

Im looking for an experienced classic opponent, any variant will be fine.

IRL on triplea or pbem.

Fair enough.

But that “settlement” does violate black-letter game rules over an ambiguity that does not really exist.

Seems like it to me too.

We play w/ 2nd Edition rules w/ the exceptions of RR & Submerging Subs. A bid is getting closer…

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?

it sounds like a fun variant, but i can see where Geze is coming from. Although i hate losing, i would feel bad beating a player with a superior position because of a 1 in 36 shot (or 5 in 36, or whatever). The point is, although it may even out the field a little bit, and it might be fun at times, it does nothing to separate out the winners from the losers (he says at the same instant that Zero is kicking his ass).

@Wild2000:

Stacking AA guns can be an advantage to the Allies when it becomes necessary to juggle AA guns between Allied territories. Under second edition rules, the Allied turn order can cause industrial complexes to go without an AA gun which can mean big trouble, especially if the Axis has heavy bombers.

I have had this situation arise many times in the European theatre, specifically when German territory is falling or the US has rockets.

agreed. This can even apply to the Axis as well. It may be nice to be able to “hold” a gun, while moving one at the same time. I remember at least one game where i wished that i could have 2 aa guns (even tho’ only one could be fired).

Basically my T1 for Russia is the same as yours mind a few exceptions. First I don’t place any inf. in the Caucasus. Why? Because Germany probably has better things to do with it’s inf like support N. Africa. Plus if Germany decides to I can just counterattack next turn, stripping German of 3-6 IPCs.

Second, I don’t use my planes on the attack on Ukraine. The inf. and ARM should be enough. Instead I use the Yaks to wipe out Germany’s trans and sub in the Baltic Sea and save my Russian sub and trans to help absorb hits when the Luftwaffe strikes against the British fleet.

major damage and yanny are correct. many units but limited stacks
