Aa42 for $19.99.

I guess you can’t say JAP?  Ok, fine the Japan attack

no. the deal is over anyway. Oh well.

Water.

Now if the questions was ‘What do you smoke while playing AA42?’, then I might have a more interesting answer. :wink:

Has anyone made a victory city tracker for AA42 similar to this:  http://www.boardgamegeek.com/image/308716/axis-allies?size=large  from the Revised game but using the AA42 color scheme and 2 victory conditions? I would try it but I do not have the programs to do such a chart. Thanks.

terrific, couldnt have said it better myself

I think AE is superior in their details  :-)
But a lot of AE ship-bottoms (?) was uneven.

I have painted both revised and AE and when I look at ´42 they all
seem blurred.

Example;
the US bomber has some doors/hatches/whatever just behind the wings
and it is clear to see in AE but ´42 it is just a blur on the sides.

I don´t know if Capt.Kiwi bought ´42 and is reading this. Then I would like his opinion.
Or anyone else who has painted  :-)

It is not the end of the world I just don´t understand why.

@P@nther:

So, as I see, you lightened up the Seazones a bit. What did you do with the .pdn to do this? Did you only modify the “Layer 25” or is there anything else behind it?
I am just asking because you did not update the .pdn.
:-)

Hmm, I don’t really remember… Tinkering with the brightness of the sea zones and the sea shade layers. And changing the blending options of the sea shade layers (overlay or normal instead of multiply, or adjusting the opacity)… Tried a few things 'till it looked right  :-D

Something else I’ve been pushing for for years is a wider Atlantic ocean. Make it a minimum two turn hop over the pond and the Germans might just have a realistic chance of stopping the US from pumping in troops here, and perhaps force them to think about a Pacific assault.
Making subs cheaper might have helped, but then anything that delays the Axis from moving maximum units to Caucasus/Moscow ASAP seems pure folly… that damned capture the capital rule really does narrow down the options when playing to win at all costs.
