Is there any way to buy extra miniatures?

@CrazyIvan You are welcome :slightly_smiling_face:

Well, I have extra infantry and carrier if some one is looking for some….

Classic 8
Europe 8
Pacific 6

Africa will provide about 3X the ipcs each turn that India will.

And don’t forget that the African Ipcs are most likely to be German rather than Japanese. It makes a big difference to have Germany at 30-33 as opposed to 39-42. 3ipcs(India) makes little to no difference to the Japanese in the grand scheme of things. I see big problems with a Japan first strategy primary among these are that Germany can get too big and walk through Ukr, Cauc and eventually take Karelia. If there are no masses of Allied troops preparing to take WEuro/FinNor then the Allies are in big trouble even if the push against Japan is succeeding.

@shermie:

Get there “the firstest with the mostest”

It don’t work if’n your most is chewed up
so’s the Allied’s least can take it back!

Note: This is another way of saying, “The Logistics guy on MASH, whom Hawkeye hated so much, had it right!”

I was attempting to create my own game and I took a dowl to a chopsaw and then printed off some “army” pictures from a clip-art library on my pc. I glued the pictures to the small dowl pieces. I had a few extra dowls so I through them in with my A&A board game and now I’ve got a few “destroyers” and “Marines” for my paper edition of A&A.

Well even then, chances are the dealer take the time and trouble to ship it all the way Belgium (unless it’s a very high bid), but it’s worth a shot.

Movement does play a large part in war today. Simply put, whoever can muster the most amount of forces in the least amount of time wins. Supply lines are just as crucial today as they were in Napoleon’s march on Russia. Also, the deployment of ground troops is greatly strengthened by Hercules transport planes and the helicopter. Land speed has improved with recon bikes and light vehicles. Sure beats, plain old marching that dictated movement before the invention of the auto and airplane.

War is still full of emotion. Have you seen, “Black Hawk Down?” If you haven’t, I suggest you do, it’s a very emotional movie – I have war vets that have cried after seeing the movie. However, war has become less glorified and less romanticized, meaning some spirit is lost. But compared to war, all other forms of human endeavor still shrink to insignificance.
