A&AP question

No; not in that case.

I just wonder, why Germany doesn’t have enought control markers in my box to cover Soviet Union with Western Europe?
Is it okay?

They need to get back to the SZ (if on a Carrier) or to a territory. You count each move.

Remember Air units don’t have to go back to from where they came. They can land on any territory you owned at the beginning of your turn or to another Carrier (if there is space).

But keep in mind the following exception:

@rulebook:

If a Japanese industrial complex is built on a Chinese territory
and that territory is later recaptured by the Chinese or liberated
by another Allied power, the industrial complex is removed from the game.

(If you play 1st Ed. it is on page 9.)

idk_iam_swiss, please try to setup the AA1942 board and play it as is, you will see by round 3 there is not enough space in Europe for all your units.  I meant small to mean that the actual territories (map size) are too small to place all your units, look at the size of the bombers alone.  I’m pretty sure that’s why IL made the map.  I could be wrong.  But the few times our group has played it that and running out of Japanese armor was our biggest gripe.  We ended up using German armor as Japanese with a flag underneath it.  Come on 8 Japanse armor?  What was WotC/AH thinking?

@idk_iam_swiss:

Its not “too small” for a begginer, Save your money. If you find out you like this game. I recomend getting the one coming out this december. Its going to be part of a two part series and youll find the map (just pacific) is larger than your current one. The two together will more than likely take up your ENTIRE kitchen table.

There is a patch out there, but it is hardly worth the effort.  I suggest downloading tripleA there are liks all over this site.

OK, only 2 version have the entire world on the map:  “Classic”, which is usually second edition, but also includes the rather rare 1st edition, and the Hasbor CD-Rom game (also called 3rd edition) and “Revised”

If you game includes the units Artillery and Destroyers, you have Revised.
If your game says “Milton Bradley” on the box, you have Classic
If the starting income is:  R 24;  G  32;  UK 30;  J 25; USA 36 you ahve Classic
If startign income is R 24; G40; UK 30; J30; USA 42 you have Revised

I run XP and have no issues with A&A at all. I would suggest a couple of things:

1. Make sure you cdrom drive you play the game from is on DMA mode and not PIO mode.

2. Upgrade to the latest Direct X package.

3. Make sure you are using the most current drivers for your video card.

Those are all standard answers I know but you just can’t be too sure. Does this do this in any other games or programs or just A&A?
