    • RE: Coast Artillery

      Look at it from a theoretical perspective and it’s quite simple.  All those “conventional 150mm howitzers” you’re building for 4 IPCs don’t have the range to retailate against weaponry of cruiser caliber or above.  So they’ll sit there on the coast under bombardment and like it!

      If you don’t like it, then your answer is to create a house rule for a coastal defense / bunker fortification that can be built 🙂

      I have been fooling around with a rather simple fortification/blockhaus rule:

      limit one per territory
      10 IPCs

      When attacked via land or by amphibious assault , rolls ONE retaliatory bombardment die at 4 or less.
      Roll is made after any incoming bombardment fire from attacking vessels and you take an applicable hits.  Any casualty you inflict is immediately selected and removed from the board by the attacker. The blockhaus DOESN’T roll a defense die in combat from then on.

      Additionally, any hits you take during the rest of the battl against infantry or artillery in that territory are negated by saving throw if you roll a 6.

      If the territory is captured, the fortification/blockhaus is removed from play.

    • RE: How will Rommel get to Africa?

      Actually, the Germans won’t need transports to get to Africa

      In E40, their new undead zombie legion technology allows them to just walk across the Ocean/Sea floor at the rate of 1 sea zone per turn.

      Or maybe that’s in next year’s Axis & Allies Collector’s Sci Fi/Punk Edition  😛

    • RE: IL AAG40 map?

      @SilverAngelSurfer:

      @Brain:

      Yes thank you kcdzim and IL, I was incorrectly thinking of how the word “scalable” was being used.

      It doesn’t mean you can climb it, BD. 😛

      On the contrary - you certainly can if you have a house rule for Gebirgsjagers! 🙂

    • RE: Release Date

      Come on Craig you could have some fun with it and not violate the NDA.

      All you’d have to do is drop a line like, “nukes are in the game as technology.”  :evil:  Now just step back and watch the fur fly for the next 2 months  :lol:

    • RE: Does anyone buy Tactical Bombers?

      Using your example of 3 fighters 3 tac buy vs a 5 bomber buy

      You looked at the offense and cost, so now look at the defense:  21 vs 5

      A Bomber group attack has range and striking power, but is vulnerable to counter attack.  Which means you need to spend money on defensive units to protect them or strike limited targets that keep you out of counter attack range.

      A Fighter tac-bomber group has less range - or the same with an investment in carriers -, but has almost equivalent striking power to the bombers and good defense in case of a counter strike.

      Each is situational.  I use both strategies together to great effectiveness.

    • RE: Bad News, Good News… How about ANY News!

      Guys did you not see?  The listed price is $0.00!  WOTC must have realized that they totally screwed up with Pacific 1940 and now for a limited time Europe 1940 is pre-ordable for a discounted price as a way of saying thank you to the A&A fan base.  Better reserve your copies quick before the sale ends!

    • RE: Global Gaming Table

      I don’t own a dining room table.

      However when I purchased AA40 Pacific and pre-ordered AA40 Europe, I did purchase a slightly used solid mahogany wargaming table with a dark cherry finish that seats 10, and now I’m picking up and refurbishing victorian style antique upholstered chairs to match.

      So I guess at Thanksgiving this year I’ll have to break out the fold out card tables and stools again  :evil:
