Actual rules for A&A Europe 1940, first Edition?

The original AA Europe is fatally flawed.  Germany can win every time by just buying tanks and smashing Russia.  This is a well known problem with that game.  This AA Europe 1940 is much better.

@mastermind93:

I currently have a copy of Europe 1940, and I just recently saw how much they are going for on ebay. If I sold mine, that would make enough money to buy a reprint, but all I hear about a reprint is hearsay. I don’t want to sell mine unless I’m ABSOLUTELY sure there will be a reprint. Thoughts?

If I had it I would probably sell it if I could get something like $200 for it.  Selling out this soon appears to be a good sign to me in terms of a reprint.  I figure there will be a reprint with substantial corrections made, and if I’m really lucky perhaps actual Italian and French figures rather than German and Russian in other colors.

All, just an FYI, but there is an A&A 40 Pacific discussion thread re: the Alpha set-up for the Pacific in the global game re: Siam. Since there is no truly “Global” site, just an FYI.

In stand alone Europe they get 29 IPC’s.

And yes they can build in West India.

The confusion comes in Global…. where British Columbia’s income is switched with West India’s income, for the purpose of realism/gameplay.

Can someone walk me through step by step how to do this? I clicked on the link and followed the instructions and it still didn’t work. I’ve played A&A Anniversary and A&A Pacific 1940 on this site before but for some reason the Europe 1940 map is not working. Thanks in advance!

@Krieghund:

You guys are right, the USSR would simply not get the units.  However, the Soviets only have to control the territory during the Mobilize New Units phase, not for the entire turn.

Good point, kinda like the Burma Road (or any NO). Just decide if its worth the resources to take it back to get the free inf.

I can’t since I don’t know the disposition of the armies off the top og my head, sorry.

India will not have two “bumps”! So stop claiming that it will.

Proof? –-Take out your AAP40 map (if you do not have an AAP40 then go buy one) and closely look at India.

Now follow the India coastline to the back of the game board.

See how the coastline is still going southeast.

Depending on where the black backer paper is, you can see 5-6mm (1/4") of the AAE40 map.

On my game board I can see some of the boarder separating E. India from W. India.

Just like on the other edge of the same board is 5-6mm (1/4") of the other half of AAP40 map.

I can see—
  —part of the"M" of Marianas (SeaZone 22),
  — half of the “G” of New Guinea
  — half of the “Q” of Queensland
  — half of the “N” of New South Wales

The bottom of India on the AAP40 map is NOT the southern tip of India.

The coastline continues southeast a few millimeters on the AAE40 map before heading northeast.
