    • So I just bought Pacific - 2000 edition

      I never owned this game and a local shop had an old copy of it so I thought I’d give it a try or buy it just to have different colored miniatures for Global40 neutrals and the task forces plastic miniatures+paper sheets.

      When I opened the board I saw this really nice and colored gameboard that impressed me. I gave a first read at the rulebook, I have read the FAQs here and I have set the board (although I didn’t play it yet).

      I must say that at least on the look part this game is very gorgeous! My only complain could be on the chinese infantries, but what the heck, I have pacific40 Chinese infantry to use anyway.

      I also like the rules and I see now where most of the global40 rules come from (As I said I never played this game this past 10 years, I had experience of classic and revised but not scenario games). The only rule that I don’t like is the submarine submerging mechanics.

      I absolutely love how the convoy works! Especially the convoy routes.

      A first look at the board setup made me think that it might be easy for Japan to achieve victory by focusing on India, but I didn’t play this game yet! So who knows!

      If I had a free night with 2 friends, would it be better spent playing Pacific or Pacific40 in your opinion?

      What should I know about this game? Any advices?

    • RE: Germany playbook: overall strategy guide

      Hey there guys, long time!

      Question: did anyone experiment with a South Africa strategy for Germany? It makes any sense?

      I’m really curious about it.
