New AT a&a

@domanmacgee

I used to play this version often some time ago… I might remember wrong but I think Germany is strong enough to take down Russia alone some times, just because Germany is so strong at the beginning and sometimes one less than average dice result would kill Russia early. It doesn’t mean Allies can’t hold but it’s tough the first 8 rounds for Allies. Once passed this threshold the chance of Allies victory improves over time typically…

Here are some new setup cards that I think ended up better than the original cards that came with the game. :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

For those who do not know, There were errors with the IPC values on some of the cards. I got tired of trying to remember which ones, so I created new cards. Here they are. They are slightly larger than the original by .25 inch.

If you find any errors let me know, at least I’ll fix mine. :grin:

Thanks for posting these up YG.

I just want to chime in here and say these are the rules for the FMGCon AA42.2 tournament this year that I “wrote”.  Essentially I took the rules from Smorey Swamp and adjusted them to a Swiss Tournament format and adjusted for time restraints.

Otherwise, it’s basically the same tourney rules that Greg runs at his big convention games.

If anyone has any issues or concerns, absolutely let us know. These are not yet 100% final, and the details of the tournament are still up in the air to be finalized.

First draft of the tournaments details;

Rules as above 16 player limit (8 tables with 2 players per table) 3 rounds @ 2.5 hours (with 1/2 hour between rounds for breaks and resetting the boards) Winner decided based on points Prize TBD (Trophy + ?) No extra entry fee (must have an FMGCon weekend pass) Advance sign up required

Afraid not Commando Brado. If the Carrier retreats, the Air units splash into the sea.
Unlike ground or naval units, When an Air units retreats from combat it remains above the territory or in the SZ until non combat. It is now it must leave the hostile SZ or territory. If it has no movement left and no Carrier upon which to land, it crashes.

I noticed, yeah. Pretty cool indeed.

It’s the attacker’s option whether he wants to stop and fight the sub or move on through.  If he attacks the sub then the destroyer must end its movement in that sea zone for the turn.

Last paragraph on Page 11 of the rulebook states that “An enemy submarine and/or transport does not block any of your units’ movement, nor does it prevent loading or offloading that sea zone. As the moving player you have the option of attacking an enemy submarine that shares a sea zone with you.”

i will do it, thank you. :wink:

Sounds cool. I just hate separating up my games to do so. I thought about cannibalizing my AAP40 first edition for Canadians. … then again there’s alaways HBG

When Pacific 1940 2nd edition came out, with its distinctive sculpt shapes for the ANZAC forces, I took the nation-specific storage box in which I had stored the 1st edition’s “ANZAC” sculpts (the butternut-grey British units) and I changed the box label to “Canada”.  The single change I made to the box contents is that I transferred a few of the 2nd edition ANZAC anti-aircraft guns to the Canadian inventory since that sculpt type wasn’t in the 1st edition.  The colour matches, so they don’t look out of place.

TY Marc! I have no hope of ever getting an AAE40-1stEd so your idea sounds great! Thanks Brother!
