france will fall G1. they fell like dominos against the german wehrmacht. they were so sure of themselves, that the germans would attack their maginot-line. suprise, they did not. i just cant undersztand why all you guys want france to play a role in this game, its bound to fall. hitler wouldnt let himself have two front on mainland europe. i will serve sauerkraut and bayer in moscow by G5.

RE: How many boxes?
i still think norway should have their own box. as mentioned above, norway gave germany their first defeat [with a little help from our friends]. france got a**raped, despite having one of the largest standing armies at the start of the WW2. No wonder nazi germany made SS-Wiking regements. our superior vikings struck the russians hard. due to a belief of low moral the german HQ thought their troops didnt need winter equipment. i would not be one of the soldiers facing the russian winter in shorts and bermuda shirts.

RE: How many boxes?
norway did never surrender to germany. and germany suffered their first defeat during ww2 in norway. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battles_of_Narvik the germans didnt even get the gold reserve. so an own box for norway should be a must. as for the swedish, damn those cowards. neutrals my ass. close connection to nazi germany. still upon this day they are cowards!

RE: How is France going to survive even 1 round?!?
france had one of the largest standing armies at the start of ww2. but it doesnt help much, when germany just went an other way than thru the maginot-line. as stated above, france will be seize to exist on g1. as we all know, france fell like domino-chips. nothing can stop the german wehrmacht…… maybe the russian winter.

RE: Future peices
the helicopter was just invented during ww2, and we had nothing like a speedboat (maybe a smugler). the game of axis and allies is just that. the axis seized to exist after berlin fell, and the us dropped some small firecrackers over japan i august '45. so no, no future pieces in my beloved AnA game. if you call the game something else, with a futuristic setting then yes.

RE: Soundtrack for playing Pacific

RE: Field Marshal Games : AMMO BOX
i got my two ammboxes today. (i and a pal ordered them together) i love them already. one bad thing though, one of them had two bad cracks in the top lid (the one my pal got) i hope the can compensate in some way. im pretty sure that jeremy@FMG will help us out. i suggest you other guys buy them aswell.

RE: What will be wrong with AAAE: 1940?
if it hadn’t been for the for the map and rulebook, i would not buy the game. unfortunatly i can’t get it anywhere else. so yes, i will get europe 1940, but not 2 copies to get enough pieces. thanks go to a certain company for making custom pieces.

RE: National Objective
an original japanese territory, well look for the symbol. when you manage to hold a japanese territory at the end of your turn, you get 5 ipc. but that doesnt mean that u get 5 ipc\territory that way. only the first.

RE: Release Date
you can buy the gamepieces at fmg, but the rulebook SHOULD be for a global game and for europe. maperrors will be hard to fix in pacific edition, but they must get europe right the first time. if the chimps at wotc could read, they would have been embarrassed. lucky for them they cant. i hope wotc take their time, but august must be the latest.

RE: Release Date
patience my friend. nothing is settled yet. some say it will come at d-day, some say it will come the date that germany surrendered, and some mean that the game will come when japan gave in… they who wait for something good, doesnt wait in vain. i hope wotc does put enough resources into mapdrawing and rulebook. i dont care about their crappy politics regarding combat units.will buy them elsewhere.
-
RE: Turn Order?
the only thing thats is for sure, is that france will come after germany. the maginot-line will not hold this time either.

RE: Accurate Miniature Equivalents for Custom Painting your 1940 E&P
only one word can describe your work, and that is AWESOME. i would love to get me a full set, but i am afraid it is a bit expensive…… already purchased the FMG wwoden crate and will also buy the combat units. keep up the good work

RE: Neutrals Declare War
i would love to get my hands on a PROPER pc game of AnA Global 1940…. never short of units, edited that seazoneflaw in the already existing pac40 and so on. dont let atari do the job, we all know what happend to the last game they tried to make. i bought it blind, and tried it once… money very bad spent.

RE: Global Game Setup
i bet it would have taken the russians several more years to develop the a-bomb. they stole the technology from the us, wasn’t able to develop it themselves… a couple of a-bombs over moscow, stalingrad and so on i bet the russian bear wouuld have folded or found a new home in siberia. if that is not the case i would have no problems seeing that the allies would have draftet what was left of the germans and sent them on a operation barbarossa v2.0.

RE: Global Game Setup
churchill was planning to draft former nazi’s, and turn them against the russians after the defeat… no cold war if the allies levels moscow… i think a post august 1945 setup is a good idea, even though i dont think thius will be an option
