Pacific 1940.2 rulebook available for download

The easiest way to count air movement is everytime you pass over a line on the board it counts as 1 movement point.  So leaving an island  cost 1 movement point to get into the sea zone.

I stopped watching Spielberg projects after AI.

I did hold my nose and watch BoB after several friends assured me it wasn’t some leftist revisionist effort. I watched the interviews with some of the soldiers involved and when they only panned some of the inaccurate historic aspects I decided to watch it. I was going to do the same here until I read a recent Hanks’ interview where “he wanted to emphasise(sic) the way the Japanese had been treated by American soldiers” and “also wanted to have people say, ‘We didn’t know our troops did that to Japanese people’.” He then implied that same racial hatred of WWII soldiers was present in Iraq and Afghanistan today…

Yup. I’m done with this. Needless to say I decided to read Sledge’s book instead. Rather get the straight story from someone who was there instead of a revisionist retelling as seen through PC colored digital camera lenses.

each game box has 6 compartments. each piece of paper creates 2 compartments. the 3 folded papers fit snugly into the game box so there is no need to glue or tape the folded paper to the game box.

however, when the 3 folded pieces are placed in the game box 2 flaps of paper do not lay flat against its neighbouring paper and i taped them down.

could i, pretty please, ask that someone scan their own personal copy of the rule book and post it here…. please?
i know their are typos, but i am sure i can still read it with them in it.

@Veqryn:

does it have to be ANZAC that conquers/controls the originally Japanese territory? (or can it be any of the allied powers?)

ANZAC must occupy the territory.  Another Allied power may have taken it from Japan, but ANZAC must have a unit there.

@Veqryn:

originally Japanese territory means places like Iwo Jima, Siam, and Paulau Island, BUT does NOT include places like Kwangsi, Manchuria, right?

Correct.

@Veqryn:

and of course, the one that is already answered, that this NO only happens once, and subsequent turns that ANZAC controls such territory do not do anything…. why?

This NO represents the morale boost of a relatively minor power setting foot on a powerful enemy’s territory for the first time.  Once the novelty wears off, it doesn’t apply anymore.

@runyan99:

Regardless, it would be nice if some people would work on a new 1940 setup and ruleset for AA50.

Okay, I elect you.

great pix craig.  nice to put faces with the names.  +1 to you.
