buy another kind of A&A and merge the units probably is the best solution, better if you can get it at special price :)

yes is unpredictable to know exactly what are the piceces run out first but generally there are very few miniatures for the game itself… more miniatures are necessary!

A&A42 cost only 30€… positive side is: double miniatures at lower price … if anyone have better idea … let me know :)

Based on my own experiences , U.S. tanks are first to run out… even the grey rounds and the Factory are not so much…

my suggestion is: buy two pack of the game (i done it, is not so expensive this edition…) or use miniatures of another AeA game

1. Yes but you dont have to count the movement of the tank…
   example: if you carry only an Infantry (land movment 1), u still can load it onto a Transport in Sea zone 6 than unload in Norway.
   Ergo: load and unload is a part of the Amphibious Assault and the only unit that is involved is the Transport… not land unit. So u have to count only the movement that the Transport can do, and load/unload take effect “automatically”.

IMPORTANT … u can move 5 tanks in one turn, you have to move them togheter in combat-move phase or non combat move phase (if norway is conquered by ally), BUT you need to have 5 Transport to make this legal movement.
Remember that 1 Transport can carry One land unit plus One infantry
Example: in one single turn, if you have 5 transport u can load 5 tanks and 5 Infantry from UK in the transports then unload them in norway as a part of combat movement or non combat movment

3)yes. Land unit can unload but they must end theyr movment here.
Example: a tank that unload as a part of an amphibious assault cannot use Blitz! ability.

1. to move land units within sea zones u NEED to carry them on trasport/s
   Rule says that u can load and unload units in the same turn on condition that Transport cannot move more than 2 spaces, that every Transport carry ONE land unit PLUS ONE infantry at max, and that in the sea zone where u finish the movement with Transport is not an Hostile Sea Zone.

2)Neither 4 or 2… but 3 is right.

Soviet far East (take off)- Sea 62 (one) - Sea 63(two) - Alaska (three)

U have to count every land and sea spaces as movement. But u don’t have to count the zone where the plane take off! (Soviet Far East in this case)

3)sea movement did not count as land movement, so if you reach Sea zone 56 with a transport (either wiht ONE movement or entire TWO movement) u can unload unit on Midway in the same turn.
Land units unload MUST complete their movemente here.

Hope that can helps :) 
If i committed mistakes please let me know!

Oh yeah IL, your maps are better than all the others on the www. Thanks again :D

@coorran Yes, we simply printed it on paper (cheaper than vinyl!) with plotter-printer … than pin down to a plywood table, easy done :)

Hi all, i’m Italian and i’m new on this board. I would like to thanks all the staff of this forum, bcause here i found useful information and stuff to prepare all the things is needed to play Axis & Allies Spring 1942 with my friends.

A great thanks to Imperius Leader! We used his Supreme Map to get our huge battleboard!

A dear friend of mine edited the map to let it fit greater dimension and better printed colours (we printed out on paper)

Here some pics:

Amazing! is 180cm x 94cm (70.86 x 37.00 inches) Wow! (We printed out for only 18€!)

We played only twice times, the game is amazing at all but a match last too long, Saving Chart is necessary to continue the game in another day…. That’s is the only bad thing of A&A… imho!

So thanks all again, see u soon on this pages.

Ciao! ;)
