They dont compare at all we play a lot of ALPHA+2 and its a great game. We also about once a month when we go for a second game we’ll do the older games A.A. Pacfic & Europe those games are awsome games that layed down the base fort the latter games. AsJapan can you get the 22$ ? what Island do you fail to take? how early do they start Bombing you? how many ones did the Allies roll on the opening round? They seem more do or die, oops I for got to say how well are you rolling? You have to do this or its all over or you have to do this to get that more cut throat. Less grand strategy there is no recovering from a bad round. there also quicker to play and there are less rules and situations
I love them both if I had to choose I would look at how much time I had and how many players are avalible
All nite and 4+ players ALPHA+ 2 or 3.5, less than 4 players and limited time any one of the older ones or even the ORIGINAL their all great in their own way

What’s the going rate for Tebow’s tears, I hear they cure cancer and give you god-like powers, apparently you receive palm leaves and a borrowed donkey for free with your second drop.

Hi everyone. My first post on this lovely forum.
Ordered mine on friday, and it was sent today. So it should be here Wednesday. Can’t wait to open it.
I live in norway and ordered it from a norwegian site. Can’t wait. It looks really good.

Plutten you old Norwegian dog, you. How much did it cost you in the Netherlands?
-
I did not buy it from the Netherlands. I bought it on a Norwegian site and it is sent by the Norwegian mail service. Which is not that quick. I payed 80 euros. That is with tax and delivery. I personally think it is a lot to pay but then again it is a big game and what a great idea to make two games and combine them.
-
Sorry, Plu, I also meant to refer to you as a Dane, just to underline a rather bad joke about ignorance. It should have gone more like this:
“Plutten you old Norwegian dog, you. How much did a Dane like you pay for the game in the Netherlands?”
Instead I wound up shooting myself in the foot. Ouch.
I agree it seems a bit pricey. I think this game is more expensive than Anniversary was, which I can’t understand. I’ve seen some sites in the US selling it for $72, which is about 50 Euros. I can’t see why it would be more than about 50-60 Euros, even with a little price hike.
How much was the game without tax and delivery?
-
I see. Maybe next time I will get the joke :-).
The game is about 60 euros without tax and delivery. But in Norway we always have to pay 25% tax on all things we buy. This also includes when you are importing goods.
I do agree with you that it does not seem logic when i cost more than Anniversary but has less content. Or am I completely wrong here. But still it looks like a really good game and hopefully some of my friends will join me.

Nah. It was a bad joke badly executed.

It looks like a great game, and I think when it’s merged with Europe it’ll blow anniversary out of the water (minus one or two components). I do think it shouldn’t cost any more than anniversary though, so I don’t see why this one does.

Mine shipped from Cool Stuff Inc on the 10th and arrives tomorrow!
-
crazy, where do you live for the game to arrive already?
Mine was shipped the 10th too according to their website, but I’m expecting 1-2 week before receiving the game…

coolstuff must be making my copy by hand, its taking them forever to send me a shipment e-mail
-
UPS left an automated massage that my Coolstuff ship of four AAP40 games will arrive tomorrow.
-
I didn’t get a ship e-mail from coolstuff. I just checked thier website and it says they shipped it on the 8th. Hopefully tonight or tomorrow.
-
UPS might get this done quickly though. Christmas is coming, so I would be surprised if UPS has more employees on the floor to get things done
-
just checked my mail
coolstuff on the way, be here by the 17th…10 days late if you ask me
