Damage question

Go to forumini.wikidot.com/axis-allies-miniatures they have all the cards there.  It’s not searchable by set only country but it does tell you which set they are from.

I’m playing A&A mini’s because it is very easy to play also for children. You can buy the different tanks on the net or eBay.
I’m also repainting the tanks and making diorama’s to make it more realistic. I even add spotters with off board artillery and reinforced positions for infantry en artillery combined with self made barbed wire f.e.

If you look on the net you can find a lot off information and photo’s.

@Ducky:

The tricky thing with this game is that you don’t feel like it’s costing you that much as you buy a few boosters here and there, but it certainly adds up after awhile. One of the best units in terms of cheap but powerful is the PAK40. 14 points, but it dominates tanks.

I agree it’s awesome but I’ve been hesitant to field it because the terrain often prohibits it’s use. I’ve been using the 7.5 for less than half the points. My opponent likes to move his tanks out of harms way. A lot. He doesn’t use his tanks effectively as a result and I literally have to hunt them down with my more mobile units. (Tanks) In an open terrain, the pak 40 is great.

1.  No cover for a head shot.  (And even if they did, all a cover oll does is reduce damaged/destroyed to a disrupt…and a disrupt is the effect that a headshot has anyways.

2.  All commanders abilities can effect themselves (in rules parlense, a unit is considered adjacent to itself).

3.  Yes, see pt 2.  This makes him a kick-ass fighter as long as he’s ot disrupted!

Additionally, if you download the scenarios that you’ll find at www.axisandallies.com, they’ll actually list suggested units for you.  It makes quick, pick-up games much easier to get started.

Thanks Leader,

That clears things up.  Game in 2.5 hours

I don’t recommend trading overseas.

Here is the rule as reinforced by Avalon Hill.

The Tiger immediately disrupts a soldier unit upon entering the hex (face-up counter).  This happens before defensive force occurs in that hex.  Units with face-up disrupted counters cannot perform defensive fire.

So, in order to stop the Tiger tank from using its special ability (remember- special abilities trump the rules, as explained at the back of the starter set rule book), a soldier unit must employ its defensive fire while the Tiger is in the adjacent hex.  Most soldier units don’t have enough attack dice to equal the Tiger’s frontal defense of 7, so the Tiger will have no problem moving into the hex.
