A&A Minis Module Requests - Part II

@spideyfan:

so just to be clear, Do the units of the various sets overlap? is there a chance for example that I get a booster for early war and i get a unit that is also in another booster pack like the desert one of the 39-45 one?

Yes you are correct. For example the Morris Armored car is in both Early war and NA. You can review sets here: http://www.tintirinti.com/search_AAM.aspx

If you want a map, on trollandtoad they have random maps for $3.50 apiece, I’m no0t completely sure if you’re asking this because you don’t have a  map or just want to play without one……

Mot, basically there are only two new tanks, a couple of changes to some tanks that are in other sets, renames, country changes, costing changes.  You know the changes better than I do.  See below, I’ve list the ones I know.

I would suggest only to add the two new tanks and work on set III.  Need some Panzerschreck HELP!!! with the new IS2 tank.  A platoon of Panzerfaust is not enough to kill it.  Defense 7/7 + superior armor.  Even if it’s disrupted the Panzerfaust needs to roll 8 out of 10 to damage.

New:
Sherman VS 17-Pounder
Valintine I

Country change:
T-26B (same as Chinese T-26)
M3 Light Tank (same as Stuart)

Name change:
M18 GMC (same as M18 Helcat)
Panzer IV Ausf F2 (same as Panzer IV Ausf. G)

Other several tanks & Vehicles rocosted

Wow cool, we are going to get the Calliope,  I love the fact we get something halfway good that has rocket salvo…

@Der:

T-70s are the Russians’ ultimate weapon.

As a man who plays the Russians himself, all I can say is……hell yes mofo.  :-P

Another idea is to only keep one of your cards in a binder… keep that one (also still in the sleeve) set organized in card pages.  This way, when you’re building an army for a game, you don’t have to thumb through your ten Shermans.  ;)

And I also use tackle-boxes.  If you’re THAT big of an A&A minis player, you could go out and get a bigger tackle box with multiple trays (and a place on the top to keep your card boxes, tiles, dice-bag, etc.  (about $30-50 at wal-mart)  Another alternative is a big ‘tool box’.  I got a plastic one from Wal Mart (I’m pretty sure… might’ve been a Military Exchange) for $20 on sale and then bought a bunch of trays to put in it (it can hold about eight trays).  Plano would be my suggestion for ‘normal’ tackleboxes (as they’re well priced, are durable… and that’s mostly what I’ve bought for my hobbies).  The backpack is something like a soft-pack that GW makes for Warhammer minis… but it is $100…

I also recently cut my ‘standard’ maps in half and put them in page protectors.  They’re pretty flat now, and aside the extra minute set-up time, I have no qualms with it!  It doesn’t work with the beach promo map (exactly), so I haven’t done that yet; and probably won’t.

So, I hope this helps someone!  :D

The rest of Sols minis came today, and we started playing.  It was kinda diffilcult to understand at first, but after awhile it was easy.  We played 2 matches in which I lost both.  :lol: I had a good setup, it was just the way I commanded my units that made me lose.  Oh well, I learned from my mistakes.  Anyways, he got some pretty good rare pieces, which I think he will post later.  :wink:

Hey there Doppelbock! Good to hear from you and I’m glad you enjoyed playing at GenCon and good to see you on the site here.

It was actually my first gaming convention and I thought it was a good time. I’ll defintely be back next year.
