@football2006:

Just so I’m not second guessing myself, if there was a destroyer blocking you, you could still perform an amphibious assault if you aided the transport with fighters, right?

you can always make an amphibious assault with a transport… as long as the attacker wins whatever naval combat occurs in the SZ.  if a Destroyer and a transport attack a SZ for amp assault and there is an enemy destroyer there, combat occurs.  as long as the enemy is sunk, you can continue to amp assault the territory.  If its survives then your transports are sunk as they do not have any combat (or defense) roll.

@Nomarclegs:

The turn sequence I’m advocating is:
Collect income
Place Units
Combat move
Combat
Non-combat move
Purchase units (secretly)… potentially very unnerving in a 4 or 5 player game

this order would screw the axis severly.  and if your purchasing secretly whats to stop someone from changing there purchase and placing on there next turn.  and this order would change the whole point of taking a territory for its position strategically and its resources which are usually plundered upon conquest, hence the IPC gain.

Also, this link. It was on another topic in AA42. It seems like the guy used nail tips and small magnets. Neat job.

thats interesting… i might try this.

would gorilla glue or crazy glue work?

Seems like it would be difficult and tedious to do it that way, even though I’m sure thats the best way to do it. 
is it not possible to just superglue the tape to the plane?  will it fall off without the pinning.  or is it possible to just superglue a piece of metal (cut  pieces of paperclips) to the fighters.  I would rather not deal with drilling every plane and chance making mistakes, i don’t have extra pieces.

attempting to make the carriers magnetic, what glue would be best to use? 
the magnetic tape works great for the carriers, but the adhesive on the tape doesn’t stick well to the planes.

negative… Sea zone 54 only borders Sea zone 20

@Mr.Biggg:

One thing I was considering for next game was an attack on indo-china, 4 infantry+1 fighter and a bombard vs 2 inf 1 f.

how do you get 4 infantry to French indo-china… there are only 3 in india and the transport starts there. it can only move 2 spaces so it cant get the infantry in persia or transjordan, and the other transport by australia is too far away.

germany can not use kamikaze’s… and im 99 percent positive they never used that tactic historically either.  don’t remember there being any rules for kamikaze’s in the book, but the advantages (house rules) only stated that option for japan.

here are the Alpha 2 regular format sheets

When printing layout should be set to Short Edge Binding.  
This will enable pages to be printed correctly so the charts for each country rounds are in the correct position front and back.

enjoy

Keredrex,
first I’ll echo everyone else and say “THANKS!” for creating these sheets they are really great. 
I believe DTDeGrave was asking about a regular format sheet with the Alpha + 2 corrections.  From my (limited knowledge) Alpha+2 is a the current set of rules endorsed by Larry Harris (the game designer).  A quick quote from his post over at his forums (harrisgamedesign.com)

“Please use the following setups, National Objectives and listed rules when playing Global 1940. These rules, or the final variation of these rules will appear in future re-prints of Axis & Allies Pacific 1940 and Axis & Allies Europe 1940.”
Larry Harris

I love the initial sheet you created, and the large format Alpha+2 sheet is great, but not everyone has access to a large format printer.  If you have/can easily modify the initial sheet for the Alpha+2 changes (different turn order, and different starting IPC) as you have for your large format sheet, I’m sure it would be greatly appreciated by those with out access to a large printer.

Great Job,
Kaffieen

awesome… ill adjust the regular format sheets and post them as soon as I can
