If you have AA-50th Aniversary- can you modify it to be this future AA 1940


  • Maybe if you bought the original A&A Pacific it would be easier to ‘mod’ to the new rules…


  • @Canuck12:

    @andreyGTA:

    I do agree on the AA40 map changes among other things, thats why I will turn to this board to seek out map files( the current large AA50 is beautiful).

    Isn’t it?
    I am currently working with some friends to turn it into a playable 3D board with terrain and unit effects. I will let everyone here know when it is all up and finished. The idea is to make it a little like tripple A, which I never actualy got to play before they shut it down.

    You can still download triple A at other sites

    Yeah, I happened to catch a link from somone’s signature. Haven’t had a chance to check it out yet though.

    Can you play live online in it? Like over a LAN connection?


  • I don’t know. I have only played against the AI which is not much of a challenge.


  • I have been toying around with a 50th edition >to> A&A 1940 for a while now
    im not sure how long you have been playing so it would be best to have the game basics down first
    This is still a work in progress however….but Ive played over 10 games with my rules and how my gaming group describes the change is “more theatre oriented” “Feels like pacific and atlantic are two different wars”

    This is acomplished by…letting UK build in pacific, and keeping Japan from attacking Russia on turns 1-4

  • You can certainly add some elements from AAP40 and AAE40, but unless you do work essentially equivilent to just making a new boardgame then no, you can’t modifiy to be identical.
    What it would take:
    A: Making two new boards that are identical to P40 and E40
    B: Getting units to represent the French, ANZAC and potentially Dutch units as well as Chinese Artillery. If you only own AA50 then US and UK will probably be very strained for unit markers, and potentially other nations as well.
    C: Getting Mechanized Infantry and Tactical Bombers for each power except China
    D: Copying the setup cards


  • It would be cheaper just to buy the new game.


  • Exactly. And a lot less work. Plus, it would probably be higher quality than whatever could be jury-rigged.


  • Regardless, it would be nice if some people would work on a new 1940 setup and ruleset for AA50.

    Okay, I elect you.
