    • RE: Compatible Game Pieces and 3-Axis Player Variant

      Thank you Hobbes and knp; that was exactly the info I was looking for!  I have been searching for a concise list of unit comparisons between versions and couldn’t find anything. I guess my Google foo isn’t as good as I thought it was. And thank you gtsg for directing me to the anniversary map! There’s so much information under the A&A umbrella that it can be a little tedious for a newcomer like me to sort it all out.

      Cheers to you all!

      Side note: I found a listing on eBay yesterday for some sculpts from 1941 for $10. I jumped at the opportunity. As far as I can tell these should be OK with Spring '42.

      Thanks!

      There’s a Craigslist ad with someone selling A&A Spring '42 for pretty cheap, but the box looks like an edition of the original version. Any idea if those units are compatible with the actual version of Spring '42?

    • Compatible Game Pieces and 3-Axis Player Variant

      Hello all. For most of my life I’ve always thought that A&A should be a game I should get. I finally broke down and ordered a used complete copy of Spring ‘42 a few weeks ago. My buds and I have played 2 games so far, and we love it, especially playing on a 5’x3’ map.

      We’ve noticed that the units get a bit scarce, especially in the later stages of the game, including the gray and red marker chips. That brings me to my first question: If I’d like to pick up a booster copy,what used versions of A&A should I keep an eye out for whose pieces are already compatible with the Spring '42 version? That goes for unit type and color. I see a lot of listings for Spring '42 on eBay, but the boxes look like the original A&A version.

      My second question: Is there a good variant (i.e., play-tested and balanced) that includes Italy as a playable Axis power? I assume this would require the download of a new map. What is the most efficient way of acquiring units for Italy? Would I split my current 5-player stock into 6 groups and paint the 6th group accordingly?

      Thanks for any advice!

      Dan
