How can I run an A&A tournament/leage ?

@huntdax:

I have the 15 yr old PC game by Hasbro Interactive.  I am having trouble with the graphics to play the game.  The game is made for WIN95/98 while my PC runs Win7.  What do I need to do to change in my settings for this to work.  Much appreciated.

Right click on the EXE file for the program (AandA.exe?)… in Win7 you’ll get options to enable windows compatibility mode, and several toggle switches.  Experiment a bit till you get something that works, you can use Win95 mode, Win98 mode, etc, etc… there’s also some other options, I forget what they are, but I had a very old Win95 game called Pacific General that just would not run under Win7 until I set it to Win95 mode and checked all the boxes, finally it ran as it should run in Win7 just like old Win95 days.

Give it a try.

AA41 all the way or if you have an old copy of classic try that.

I love A&A Pacific. I bought it practially the day it hit the shelfs nearly a decade ago. I’ve played it so much that its more than worn out on me and i want to get a new copy.  I realize that the game is out of print now, but unopened copys are still around at some stores. Does anyone know the difference between the 1st print edition and later print editions. For example the 1st print had a box that said it contained 445 pieces, but came with 335. The new box has a different logo in the corner and says it contains 330 pieces. This means some changes have been made between prints. perhapse they fixed the rulebook and setup card typo?

If any of you guys know of any differences i would greatly appreciate it. As i need to decide fairly soon weather or not to buy a new unopended copy of a later print or a used 1st edition print.

thanks.

P.S. I realize that the new AAP40 will be out soon, but as a diehard A&A fan i have a complusive need to keep a crisp copy of each A&A title in good condition. Some of you will understand, others wont.

Hello!!! I am having a problem. I want to change my in-game A&A nick. In the internet gamespy login, I go to modify, and attempt to add " (panzer) " to my nick. It brings up a message stating that there are invalid characters in my nick. What is going on??? PS- I see other A&A players using the exact symbols that my version says are invalid!!!  :cry:

Hey,

I agree with you guys revised is the way to go; however, I had one buddy who just didn’t grasp the concepts until he started DDay. So I would have to say it depends on the person also.

The only thing I can think of that made DDay easy to start with is all the idiot cards tell you what to do in order. But for the most part I stick with revised

The following works if you play the board game w/real dice…
You might check the dice immediately before you roll and after your opponent rolls every time. This way you catch loaded dice and have a good gaming habit that only adds a minute or two to each turn turn.

I think this reinforcements rule puts the axis at a disadvantage and we all know the axis already has enough disadvantages to deal with.

the maximum out put of any Ic that you did not start with is limited to the teretorys IPC value
