@toblerone77 A bit late to the party here but anyway…!
The sculpts are made in a lighter plastic than later versions and the Japanese infantry sculpts, for example, really show this. Lots of them have half their helmets missing and their rifle stocks are too thin and are thus often bowed or malformed. Another example is Italian tanks which have smaller and far inferior sculpts to the europe 1940 version.
This is my favourite Axis and Allies version regardless and I have swapped out all the pieces with better sculpts from other version. Its probably cost me a fortune in potential re sales but I don’t care.
How many transports do you have?
-
So this has 4 parts with 2 subparts and 2 subsubparts each.
As England, How many transports do you have going in 1941 setup with NOs, without NOs, in 1942 with NOs, without NOs?
I have been playing without NOs recently, and I use 3 transports shuttling guys out of britain to either africa, norway/karelia, or france/poland.As Japan, How many transports do you have going in 1941 setup with NOs, without NOs, in 1942 with NOs, without NOs?
Again, without NOs, I tend to have 4 transports going for 1942, 1941 i don’t build any more.As America, How many transports do you have going in 1941 setup with NOs, without NOs, in 1942 with NOs, without NOs?
Without NOs and KGF, I tend to get a massive 12 transports going in the Atlantic theatre, usually building 2 a turn, shuttling 8 a turn troops to africa and italy or france.As Italy, How many transports do you have going in 1941 setup with NOs, without NOs, in 1942 with NOs, without NOs?
Without NOs I can’t make up my mind on if I should just stick with the one I start with or if I should build one more. Whats better?As Germany, How many transports do you have going in 1941 setup with NOs, without NOs, in 1942 with NOs, without NOs?
I don’t build navy with Germany, unless I am experimenting. -
this question is much too general. you try and buy the number of transports you need given the circumstances. in uk’s case, you have 8 slots to build units, so four transports can shuttle a 4 inf + 4 tank buy, but whether you want more than that depends on a) can you defend them b) do you have units that can be transported c) are you growing poorer or richer, indicating if you will be able to fill any extra transports you build now later. d) etc.
in short, it is rarely useful to generalize much in A&A
-
interesting that you “tend to have 4 transports” in 1941 japan since you start with 5. Is there a point where you “typically” sacrifice one?
-
i was thinking 1942 for that one, 1941 i don’t build anymore
