What do we want in AAE40 that we didn't get in AAP40?


  • smart business strategies? in america?!?! absolute tosh


  • There are smart business strategies in America. How do you think that it got the largest economy in the world. Unfortunately WOTC wasn’t a company that created a good product. In their case they had a good product which created the company. This would have been great if they had enough sense to get the right help in running their business, but it is painfully apparent that they did not.


  • I think including more Japanese tac-bombers in AAE40 isn’t unreasonable. How much would it cost to put 6 more in each game? I’m thinking it is pennies at most.


  • omg i want to be able to SEE the lines between the territories and countries in europe. i bought 1942. and you cant see the country borders at all!

    Now if you want to be a real American, just take a pencil and draw the line yourself.


  • hmm…maybe we have to draw the unit type on the back of those nationalmarkers and flip it back and forth to identify wich nation it actually is…no wonder that the game will take for hours  :? :-D

  • Americans don’t mind other people killing themselves as long as it doesn’t interfere with us bleeding them dry.

  • OK so one of the primary things people want to see in AAE40 is more countries represented… usually their home country.

    How about this for all AAE40 games sold outside of US, UK, the former USSR, Germany, China, Japan, Australia, Italy and France…

    You also get a T-shirt.

    “MY COUNTRY FOUGHT IN WW2
    AND ALL I GOT IS THIS LOUSY T-SHIRT”

    Would that work for ya?  :-D

  • Casualties done by fighters should be taken by other aircraft first, instead of ground units. After air superiority is established, strafing may commence.

    At what point would you say air superiority has been established?

    When all aircraft of one side are destroyed. I guess you would have to fire air-air between first-strike and regular combat.

    Just curious.
    I’ve earned some -karma on here discussing this subject (and obviously not learnt my lesson) from those who say forcing air-air combat until all AC are destroyed wastes the IPCs spent on AC and it should be limited to first dice rolls only, no matter who survives.

    Personally I don’t really see the realism of that. Just sounds too Gamey to me.
    (OK whoever you are, go ahead -1 me until you feel better)


  • If you want more realism. Each piece should have different attack and defense values when engaged in air,ground  or naval attacks. Bombers attacking at a value of 4 makes sense when attacking ground units, but not against fighters.
