Graphic Battle boards

I mainly made these because I need  larger things to see and especially reminders what the national bonuses are for objectives. We always have a new player joining and he does not quite remember what is required to get the bonus.

On the battle board I added information about surprise attacks and anti aircraft as people forget to roll these first, Kamikaze information, and how to do strategic bombing runs.

OK thanks for the help!

That’s correct.

@calvinhobbesliker:

Does anyone know of a battle calculator that takes the rules of P40 into account?(carriers attacking at 0 and taking 2 hits, possibility for BB’s and CV’s to be damaged before battle, Mech inf, tactical bmrs.)

Triplea is an amazing free program that allows you to play axis and allies realtime against players all over the world, play by email, play by yourself, or play against the weak computer ai.

triplea has classic(World War II Classic), revised (World War II Revised), anniversary(World War II V3), and aa42(World War II V4). the names in brackets are the names triplea uses for legal reasons.

pac40 (World War II Pacific, note Pacific Alpha is the original pacific game released in 2001) map and units are completed but the game is not finished yet as the naval and air bases do not work. because the bases do not effect the units the battle calculator works perfectly.

to use the battle calc
download triplea
download pac40 map
open a game of pac40
click on game tab at top of triplea tool bar
scroll down to battle calculator
enter your attacking and defending units

you can download it here http://triplea.sourceforge.net/mywiki/TripleA

@cannon:

I received my “corrected battlestrip” and additional Japanese tactical bombers but the battlestrip is still wrong as it doesn’t show the tactical bomber/tank or fighter combo as hitting at 4 or less unless I am mistaken.

It’s a good start but…

Well you do gotta know that stuff though. Like in the 1942 edition (and I’m sure earlier) artillary supports infantry but the strip doesn’t show that. I understand how that’d be useful but if you want one that shows that stuff I saw a really good 1 in one of these threads (maybe even this one) to print off

Thanks forgot about the inf/art and mech inf/art combo.

@elque:

Assume that your naval force includes one or more submarines and your opponent has a destroyer and engages you in battle. Can your submarines submerge (exit in mid battle) at your option once your opponent takes his destroyer as a casualty?

You would be able to submerge your submarines the following round of combat since there would no longer be any destroyers to negate the sub’s special abilities.

I can’t say for sure, but my understanding is the ships are much larger and will have difficulty fitting.

Territory next to india might be packistan (incorrect nomiclature for 1940) or Kashmir, or some other goofy name……

Larry does what he wants basicly…but I hope Iran (persia) is axis neutral.
