IPC record sheet for AA42 for -Over the board- (OTB) Tournament play

@TheVenocWarlord:

Yeah, it can, but you’ll need to mark your AA guns somehow as they are now Power Dependent and you’ll have several more lying around on the map.

Though I’d suggest you go to the trade thread and ask for just the 2nd Map and extra AA guns, you should be able to get them for $10ish +shipping. That’s what I did.

you don’t REALLY need to mark AA ownership.  It’s rare indeed for Japan to combine AA with Germany, or US to bring AA to UK, etc etc etc.  Since they never can attack, they’ll never share a space with an opposing force. So I don’t see this as being that big of a problem.

agreed… also This game is supposed to be a simulation of what you can do with what was available.  also the value and production limits are there to simulate the Time and resources involved in the war effort.  To make a drastic change of unlimited deployment are game breaking changes that will affect further game play.   besides, Ive played many games on the board… and every country has had there share of victory… one game Russia dominated germany, another game japan dominated the US, another Game UK Wiped out Japan, and once the US hammered both Axis into the ground.  Fantastic games…

Those are pretty cool with the ships and units on them. I like how you separated the different units with the boxes. Nice touch.

I haven’t played it before.

It’s better to just write your money down, especially if you’re playing one on one. It can get messy trying to keep IPC’s organized for all three allies. Writing income down is quicker and is evidence of purchases in case there are any disputes later. Our group stopped using money before 42 even came out because we realized the pointlessness of it.

@allboxcars:

personally I’m hoping the new game breathes some new life into these fora.

Yes I am an FNG but still - looking around and just reading some threads more or less at random - this place seems to be stagnant with something wavering between indifference and dogma.

COOL!!! My first Karma point! Negative naturally…

Well, it seems to me if you are going to kling to the same basic game (axis and allies) then not much can be done to send fresh air in. Just how much new stuff could be done…like start trek, they have been there and done that…many times over!

Actually it wasn’t the game I thought needed “fresh air” but this place.

to judge the actual quality of the components in deciding which to play based on that, we have to wait for the release.

variety…perhaps, speed of play…maybe, can’t get AA50…sure

…one can drink too much so as to turn off one’s date as they get vomited upon…
