The Official "Looking for AA50 Opponents" Thread

Well, that settles the teams pretty quick…all rolls were odd, therefore the AXIS team consists of:

Bongaroo
TimtheEnchanter
Joe Cold

The Allied team:

Bigbadoo
Nickiow
Danger Mouse

Now for nations:

Allied team we will roll for first.

Danger Mouse up first: (1,2 = Russia) (3,4 = UK) (5,6 = US)

Rolls: 1@6; Total Hits: 11@6: (5)

K, DangerMouse is United States

Nickiow 1,2,3 = Russia  4,5,6 = UK

Rolls: 1@6; Total Hits: 11@6: (4)

K, Nickiow is UK

That leaves me to be Russia

AXIS team:

Bongaroo 1,2= Germany 3,4= Japan 5,6= Italy

Rolls: 1@6; Total Hits: 11@6: (2)

K, Bongaroo Germany

Joe Cold 1,2,3 = Japan 4,5,6= Italy

Rolls: 1@6; Total Hits: 11@6: (5)

K, Joe Cold is Italy

That leaves TimtheEnchanter as Japan

K, Teams are set:

ALLIES:
Bigbadgoo = Russia
Nickiow = UK
DangerMouse = US

AXIS:
Joe Cold = Italy
TimtheEnchanter = Japan
Bongaroo = Germany

I will post the thread in play games, lastly, it seemed like most people voted for tech…I will set it up with tech unless I get any strong objections…and  enough of them to outweigh the others.

@anchovy:

I’d like to join in.  I’m OK with the rules options listed.  What is the new FAQ rule about industrial factory production?

The newest Rules Errata FAQ posted from Kreighund states that for Increased Factory Production, that the +2 unit build option only takes effect on territories which have a 3 IPC value or greater.  So the only benefit that a 1 or 2 IPC valued territory would get is the cost reduction for repairing IC damage counters.  This means that Japan, UK, and US are all losing out with this modification of the rules.
I would rather continue playing this tech as written in the rules, but if the majority wants to use the new Rules Errata FAQ, then that’s okay with me.

so,

6-player AA50

Optional rules(Bosporus closed/Fighter Interceptors - No
New FAQ ruling about Increased Factory Production - No
Random sides - Yes
1941 - Yes
NOs  - Yes
Tech - Yes (Although I would like to eliminate or modify the Heavy Bomber tech after so many games of Heavy Bombers just scouring the seas clean of all naval vessels.)  If modified, then Heavy Bombers hit on “5” and SBR at 1 die roll+2.  If the group consensus is to use the fully-powered Heavies, then that’s okay too.

@CalmDragon:

Looking for one AA50 game,
PBF
1941 Setup
NO’s = YES
Tech = YES  :-o
NO BIDS (sides chosen by random roll unless you just have to be one side or the other.)
Abattlemap and Forum in house dicey  :roll:

Can do 1 turn a day, Monday through Thursdays and maybe every other Friday.  PM me to accept.  :wink:

Okay, I have three offers and my tables are full, so closing this request.  Thank you all.  :wink:

I’m back out on the market for some '41 competition.  I prefer NOs and no tech.

count me as for the HB change if we play tech.

Looking to pick up a game with an experienced player (with games played, doesn’t have to be from forum play only). '41, NOs, no tech, just like the tourny.  I prefer Axis.

Still only 1 more player needed for the following game.  Sign up today!

If we don’t get another player soon, then we’ll just do a 5-player game, but which 2 nations should be blayed by the same player?  I suggest that it should be Japn/Italy being played by the same player, but what are y’alls suggestions?

I’ll throw down in the 6 player.

1.  Bardoly
2.  anchovy

4.  Yasha
5.  bongaroo
6.  DemolitionMan

Allright, we have our 6!

OK, rolling for random sides.  I will roll d100.  In order from highest to lowest die rolls, the players will be chosen for play order/teams.  For example, the highest roll will be Germany, next highest Russia, and so on, with the lowest roll being US.  If some tie, then I’ll roll-off.
