Please share this post with anyone you know who may be interested!

Not sure but the guy said 42.2 is default game if players disagree on game. But if they agree, any AA game can be played but i don’t think Global is played until the final on Sunday. ON Friday The War Game: World War Two is often played or another.

I’m planning to attend the SCARAB gaming convention in Columbia SC on January 17, 2015. If anyone else in the SC area would be interested in going, it’s $20 for a day pass to the convention, if we can get an A&A game going I’d like to start by about 10:00 AM. I have Pacific 1940, I think it would be cool to play a game of Global 1940 but I don’t have a copy of Europe.

If you’re interested in attending and playing a game of A&A, let me know!

Find a place you are planning to host it first.

Pick a date/time.

Find out how many people can come / willing to pay etc.

Find out what version people want to play.

Once you know how many games will be played, and how many people are attending, then you will know what to supply.  Also, offer compensation for anyone who brings thier own game.

I, for one, LOVE Battlemap… :-D

Flying Tiger,

I live in southern California and would be interested in a face-to-face game. I know a friend or two of mine would be interested as well.

Also, I attend all the events in LA listed by Squirecam. The A&A tournaments usually have 8 to 12 people attend/play. The person who runs the A&A tournament let’s the players pick what version of A&A they want to play. Most people play either A&A Anniversary Edition or A&A Global 1940, Europe 1940 or Pacific 1940. Some players however, still play Revised Edition. The tournament starts at 9AM on Saturday and runs until Sunday night. Saturday consists of two games. Game one starts at 9AM and goes until 4PM. The winners from all the first round games, play against each other in the 2nd round games, which goes from 4PM until there is winners Saturday night. Usually 10PM to 2AM Sunday morning. Although I’ve seen games go until 4AM. Usually by 2AM a winner is called so people can get some rest for the next day. The final game to determine the winners(1st & 2nd place) starts at 9 or 10AM Sunday morning and usually goes until between noon & 4PM. The $40 is definitely worth a weekend of A&A play. I usually come Sat morning and stay until Sun night. I usually try to find players to play the A&A Global 1940 game, since it’s the newest game out. I have a friend of mine who usually attends with me and we’re always looking for new, good players.

If you’re interested in getting together face-to-face or at the next Con, let me know and I’ll PM you my phone number.
