Hey folks,just got my copys of aa42,opened 1 box and checked it out.The map is cool,i havn’t checked out the piecies yet.Hopefully i’ll beable to get a game going this weekend.I liked the rules from aa50 so i’m hopin this is just a scaled down version of aa50.

Danger Mouse where at in mo.

i’m in lebanon

I’ve only played 2 games 41 setup and won both.would love to play more but noone out here plays the game.

10 hrs. usually im not logged on unless im gonna post something.im usually reading the post nightly while im playing poker online.

Title: Allies swarm 41
Date:12-28-08
Special Rules: none,no v.c.
Victor:Allies by concession I was allies,brother was Axies,were both decent players,but i have the advantage because he hasnt played the newer games and dont have all the new rules down.Plus i have acess to all the stratigies that are posted on this site.
Game Length: about 2 hrs.2rounds
G1 germany took out have of UK,s navy,took ukraine,e. poland,baltic states failed.
Italy non factor,he didnt know what to do with them.
R1 russia fell back to lenn.,mos.,caus.,stacked everything i could in bury. bought 5 inf,3 tanks.
Japan took new guinea,borneo,killed all bought 2 chinese.killed most of us navy,left me the carrier and plane cant remember what the japs bought.
UK1 bought a bomber anIC,carrier.ic placed in india,consilidated navy in sz 8
USA1 bought all navy+bomber,left the pacific,took atlantic navy and put with the uk navy.
turn 2UK and USA bought all navy+bombers,uk did put troops india to ,russia had atleast seven tanks,a plane mabe and 3 stacks of inf.USA moved into africa.

Observations/Recommendations:Sense the axis didnt really know what to do with itlay and know how agressive to be with japan he was really overwhelmed.I went with kgf.

Germany dont have the airforce it needs and without italy helping they cant stop UK,USA.
We played a 2nd game a few days later and i tried to split the USA income half to the pacific half to the atlantic,that didnt work to well but the allies still won in 5 rounds.

@Black_Elk:

Or maybe they don’t even have a marketing budget, just a distribution one.

Yawn

Why do they need a marketing budget when there or sites like this to promote the game for them.They new that people that play the game would tell thier friends and they would tell thier friends ands so on.And when there are say 500 hundred people from all over the world reading the fourms at a&a.org the word will spread.

just my 2 cents.

thx.

I started playing about 86 or 87.played classic and 2nd addition to death.My wife thinks im nuts playing a game that last for 8-9 hrs or longer.lol.

I really enjoy going through the fourms here and reading everones input.im 39.

The game states that there can’t be more than 8 units in a space from one side,so can i attack with more than 8 units? I have 22 ger. troops in reach of caen,can i bring them all?

cool thx
