Axis & Allies
Pacific 1940
First Edition

Anyone here annoyed with the typos and other errors found in A&A Pacific 1940 1st Edition on the setup boxes and in the manual? I have a version from 2009 that is one of the first copies that has these errors, warts and all, that I bought from Gateway Games in Erie, PA for Christmas in 2009, exactly 10 years ago. I dislike this version and I would like to please get an updated version of 1st Ed. with all the corrections. Thank you. Where do I find the corrected edition of A&A Pacific 1940? I heard about it 9 years ago, but can’t find it. Anyone know of any copies?

Sometimes it can get a little confusing in island sea zones which units are in the sea zone and which are on the island.  The statement is intended to make sure the attacker indicates which air units are which, since they can in many cases get to either space.

This was very enjoyable to read.

If US decides to build up in HAW seazone, your aircraft are useless for a complete round (or more). Because you can’t fight that seazone (6 spaces). As US player I would just sit tight, build up and move to Japan via a northern route. Or go to Indies via southern route (Australia). Or build up TR with loads of cargo to take out Carolines. For every fighter it costs Japan it costs an inf for US.

And I think it will be a very dull way to play, or am I mistaken?

Has anyone posted a pic of the new battle strip that WOTC has been giving out?

Info is all here for a new battlestrip:

Look at the dates on this thread - digging up a half year old topic?

They are timeless issues

That is correct some issues are timeless. When a person wants to vent what is the difference what the date on the thread is? I have played over a dozen of these AAP1940 games and find that the cardboard is more disgusting with each game. And I have never even used all of them. I have used plastic ICs and AA guns from day one. I will get shed of all the cardboard as soon as I can find a plastic substitute for sea and air bases. I tried one of those funky war games with all cardboard many years ago. The first time someone bumped the map the pieces scattered every where. At least I can still pick up the control markers in AA games and that is enough cardboard in my games. Well that is enough venting for now.

If you can wait until tomorrow, I’ll explain it all in my next article about the rules.
