Additonal AA pieces

Welcome CraneDeNicollo.  My friend got me started on Global 1940.  I have also started playing Global 1939 which is a very complicated game but plays like Global 1940 with slight rules variations.  Recently, my ten year old grand daughter took a real interest in the game and my friend suggested the 1942 second edition version.  It was simpler but still a real challenge.  I have one a game against my teacher in the Global 1940 so I felt some what confident as I entered the game but soon found myself scrambling to just survive as my grand daughter lead Germany in a global tear.  She says she wants to be President some day…God help her enemies if she makes it.  Now she plays the ANZACS and China in the Global 1940 game pretty much on her own.  Both games are great but her trouncing of her grandpa in the 1942 games have inspired her to learn more.  If you are wanting to gain experience and learn stratagies, I recommend 1942 to start with.

Yes, you are right, it’s genitive. But “Wehrmacht” is -female-: die Wehrmacht. As for this, the genitive “der” is always used  :-)

Nice poem, i have the book in german :-)

I just bought a bunch of metal miniatures. If I decide to paint them to match the colors of AA50. Does anyone know the exact paint colors I will need? Has anyone got a clue what shade of blue France will be?

Originally, I used to sort my A&A pieces (and pieces from similar games) by keeping them in ziplock plastic bags, with smaller bags inside larger ones to represent subcategories.  It soon became too cumbersome to open bags-within-bags to reach whatever specific kind of piece I needed, so I switched to using translucent plastic tackle boxes with adjustable dividers.  The box dimension I like the best among the many sizes available is 14" by 8.5" x 2" thick.  I get them from the fishing equipment section of local hardware stores, and when necessary I’ve ordered extra dividers from the manufacturer.  I apply white sticky labels to the narrow end of the boxes to identify them when they’re stacked for storage, and the lids are transparent enough for the contents to be easily identifiable when the boxes are spread out for use.

That’s pretty much what I’m getting… 2 sets of all the pieces, 1 set of chips, and control markers. I frequently run out of markers for Japan, Germany, and Russia sometimes.

anything you buy must ALWAYS be place at a territory with an IC in it

Good old Alex! He new Russian Communism.
He new Russian Communism wasn’t True Communism,
and he knew it very well! - another great Xiuote

Be careful where you start drawing the line. The USSR still had hope in it in the 1920’s. But after the rise of the Rightist Stalinist, the breech had happened.
