Oh, I see what you’re saying, Tekkyy. You’re talking about more of a reference sheet or player aid than a rulebook. Yeah, I think four pages would cover it.
Yeah 4 pages would make it approachable. It’ll be almost as quick as teaching people Settlers of Catan.
I like AA1942. (credit to AA50 rules team) It nicely dealt with some of the main undesired situations AAR house rules wanted to resolve.
transport fodder
sub stall
SBR bleed
flat SBR defense
It came with a price cut too (I think, RRP $65 vs. $80 in Australia) while improving unit pieces. Nice.
Plenty of board games at this price point only give you cubes and rectangles to represent whatever.
but there are probably copyright issues seeing the TripleA open source project got hurt
Which is a Major load of Legal Bull Shet. Triplea Was the best thing since Sliced bread. Got a new computer and went to DL it, and found the Letter from Hasbro. I almost cried. Tried Dl’ing from Media Fire. Not happening, I think I felt a tear. :cry:
If any body Knows how to Down load it, Please, please, Let me Know
Thanks
If you go through the forums on triplea you can find a link to the files still (at least I did) that users posted
although there is still no running lobby. :x
Krieghund, is AA1942 using AA50 rules exactly?
or are you making a comparison table like the one you made for AA50 vs. LHTR vs. Revised ?
Other than obvious things (Italy, China, turn order), the only real difference is in how new units that can’t be placed are treated. In Anniversary they remained in the Mobilization Zone until they could be placed. In '42, you get a cash refund for them.
The real difference for me is in the sculpts.
I don´t understand why they use the same sculpts, but they
aren´t as crisp and fine-cut as AE50.
Is there really any money-making in cutting that small corner?
I mean it´s obviously the same sculpt…why not do it right?
Cool, Krieghund. Thats great.
Besides the four I noted, also like the 1-to-1 bombardment and reduced carrier defense.
(I am a bit slow. Haven’t touched on the game for months and only catching up on AA50 rules now.)
Would be nice if someone owning AAR, AA50, and AA1942 can take some photo with units side by side.
I am hearing conflicting reports about AA1942’s sculpt quality lol.
This is the first time that I’ve heard anyone say that the Anniversary pieces are superior to the '42 ones.
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.
