@Imperious-Leader Maybe you went this way since the original design does archetypally the same, but how about, in the land-to-land borders, colourizing the borders of the borders, while leaving the inside of the borders light grey?
This way, you could properly define the colours for the borders between territories with different ownerships (for example, having the border between Poland and East Poland grey on the west and red on the east).
The Soviet symbol in the turn order is different from the ones inside the territories.
The Azores are sometimes neutral and sometimes American (also probably it would make more sense as British than Americans, but debatable and pointless).
In the “AA50 Suplreme Edition” there are no territories for Azores and Malta, but only the roundels?
AA50 is in the latest TripleA unstable, but it is not 100% free from bugs yet.
GTO works fine for those who prefer it, but TripleA has many more options.
~$8 sq/ft is what I was quoted from several sources as well. So, for a 72x36 you’re looking at a pretty serious outlay of coin. Then you have to seal it.
IMO Allies have the edge in Revised and Classic. Especially Classic.
AA50 (both scenarios, although IIRC 41 is a bit closer) is tough for the Allies in most cases unless you turn NOs off and/or close the Dardanelles.
Of course, if you really hate yourself just play 42SE or G40 with Allies no bid.
Oh then your not that guy…
This guy named randyjohnwayne on ebay claims he has games with upwards of 20,000 pieces at one time. He sells hundreds of pieces for AA games and hoards the good ones. I chatted with him on the phone before and i got some incredible stories of 1 hour battles just to resolve one freaking battle!
And no i have no idea how his games get to this level of madness. I guess his playing group does not like combat unless they get thousands of pieces.
I would surely love to see a picture of these so called “Battles”
Try this site - in the Play Boardgames section. (Or looking for games, there are a couple places). Like he said, ABattlemap has Classic. I haven’t played Classic online yet, but would probably be willing to, so I’m sure there are others…
