@Moffett:

CDG, that is for Triple A?  Never saw a factory in Libya for Italy in your 1939 v3.

Thanks…

Some fans have made a triple A version of this fan made setup; I don’t play Triple A so I don’t know how you can access it or how I can help the creators tweak it.  As for a factory in Libya, I never suggested that and neither would that be legal since Libya is worth only 1 IPC.  Were you confused because I said the starting forces in Libya were reduced by 1 infantry?

@AxisAndAllies1940:

@Charles:

Also, since this is 1939, it feels acceptable to pretend that France will never surrender, but rather fight or retreat to Algeria etc.

France will never surrender! Vive de Gaulle!

We don’t need Vichy rules when France does not have to give up.  That is the spirit of this mod.  France, and all the countries really, have a chance to make early decisions that will drastically change the war.

SETUP TWEAK:
I’ve gotten so many complaints about the ahistoricality of ANZAC’s battleship that I decided to remove it and replace it with a destroyer and a cruiser (all in Sea Zone 54).

Extremely minor tweak was made last summer: the Italian infantry in Libya was reduced from 4 to 3.

This is the direction I’d love to see A&A head towards: more interesting and less gamey combat.  Contested territories worked splendidly in 1914.  In fact, if it weren’t for the trench warfare style of fighting that is a little boring, I think 1914 game mechanics are better than the standard.

I like this.

Not funny Tojo.  When, I was on the road yesterday, people seemed to have fogotten that the yellow line is not to be driven upon.

@Narvik:

You purchase units at the end of the Turn ? What is the reason for that ?

Its getting too simple, man

Youre so right, man.

I had a lot of hopes and dreams for the possibility of A&A being continued without its legendary creator, but those were smashed with bloody zombies.  Although I won’t be quitting A&A anytime soon, the lack of fresh appeal in the franchise is slowly taking away my game players.  Alternate setups and house rules help but take too long to perfect to keep the less interested crowd from leaving after they’ve tried every strategy they wanted to.

I don’t get angry often or use such foul language but—

Fuck you WotC.  Fuck you.

I have to disagree.  Imagine Japan building a micro in western China or the Novosibirsk area.  That would allow a quick overrun of the unprotected Soviet territoriies while the Russians are cornered in Moscow.  It tales a fast unit four turns to get from the Chinese coast (where factories can be built) to Moscow, while a micro could bring troops to the front immediately.

Even a micro in the Shan State or Yunnan could be detrimental to India simply because of the added range. Though a micro is not as economical as a minor, it gives Japan a privilege it rarely ever gets early on: building inland.

I detest that rule with a passion.  :x

I call for revolution.

July 3rd 1944, the British and Canadian armies were locked in bitter fighting liberating Caen.  Vive la france!
