Recon?
So you dont set the game up at the start?
I still dont get it.

dont be so cheap and buy the new game, old map sucks compared to new one plus new units.
Whats the chances this is aldertag again with an new forum identity.
If so you have a mental problem.
If not then welcome to the boards ;)
@!ACHTUNG!:
China can win but only through counter-attack, you can’t beat Japan by blocking thier path with units on defence.
Instead, let them take ground for FREE during thier move, and then counter thier infantry 1 at a time through counter-attacks. This severely limits the amount of troops japan can keep on the ground, and in turn, restricts the amount of aircraft they can use to support them (Because Japan is not likely to suicide fgts and tac bmb’s into plain chinese infantry)
This has been an effective method, each time I’ve used it. It helps the allied effort, by forcing japan to commit more and more troops.
In short - Play hide and seek with Japanese Aircraft.
WOW, YOU SOUND LIKE YOU HAVE PLAYED THIS VERSION A LOT. HOW MANY TIMES HAVE YOU EVEN PLAYED THIS GAME? WORD ON THE STREET IS ONCE. SHOULD YOU REALLY BE OFFERING ADVICE TO ANYONE AT THIS POINT??
Word is on the street that you should let go of the SHIFT button once in a while.
QFT!
How many alter ego’s does aldertag have?
Seriously though, I played one game the other day as Japan and the allied player just gave up with China after a few turns. If you can convince the allied played that China is a no hoper like AA50, there is half the battle won. He just turtled in Burma with all the Brits and I slowly advanced and took them out. he hid his fleet in British waters too off the coast of India doing nothing with it for the entire game.
Once Britain was gone it was game over as I had 6 cities.
I think China could be a major headache to Japan. But in this scenario where I went all out for Britain first, China is dependent on ANZAC and USA doing something to force Japan’s hand further west.
Can fighters scramble from japan?
Received mine yesterday. Had to pay 12 pounds tax on the door.
Cant wait to play! It’ll be after xmas now
First of all, thanks for the FAQ Krieg.
But could you include some justifications for these changes. It would be nice to see the reasoning behind these changes. Especially the NZ change.
Razor,
Buying two games is no excuse for not including enough parts. Some people don’t want to shell out for 2 games and nor should they need to. Myself I have aa50 so can use some of those parts, I have also modified some fighters by painting them to distinguish them as tac bombers. I am not shelling out for 2 games to get more tac bombers and a load of tripe I dont need. Although I would have paid $20-30 more for more pieces to be included in the game. I’m sure Uncle Joe would have too.
Unlike you, people have other priorities in life, family, christmas is coming up… things of that nature. So i’m sorry if some of us don’t want to shell out nearly $200 for board games, no matter how much we like them. You can call us cheap all you want but I call it intelligence. But it’s ok for you because it appears your goal in life is to get to 1000 karma on a gaming forum…
Another example of Aldertag living up to his reputation of being a total schizophrenic asshat. If you don’t have anything productive to say instead of just mindlessly bashing any justified critisism of the game, then just don’t post.
This rant may get me a warning from mods but I feel someone needs to shut this moron up IMO. Sorry if I offend anyone else.
Merry Christmas.
ah ok mate thanks :)
I wonder why aa50 rules were posted so soon then.
I just pre ordered the game from Field Marshal Games. It ended up costing around 86 USD with shipping to Europe. But now I received an email from FMG telling me to pay 42.77 USD to them via PayPal. I have already payed 86 USD via PayPal.
Not being used to ordering things online from the US, I dont get what the extra 42 USD are for. Can someone enlighten me?
It’s for international shipping.
Has anyone got a link to a copy of the rules in .pdf or some other web form?
I’d like to read the rules and get familiar with them as I did with AA50 before it came out.
Thanks!
@Army:
I’m still waiting for a phone call from my local game store! I’m in UK and I believe it has been released today. Absolutely champing at the bit for this title. Will post again as soon as I’ve picked up my copy… :|
where did you get it if you dont mind me asking. im from UK had to import it.
I too am curious about that. Also, what price are people paying? It seems to be pricier than Anniversary, even though it should be the same.
Lozmoid can you answer this question please :)
Hey WIld Bill thanks for the pics +1 to you!!
Can you upload some more pics later on in mid and late game :mrgreen:
That would be orsm.

Hopefully mine is getting shipped to UK from FMG today.
Britian is a beast for a few beginning turns if they get bonuses and Dutch East Indies. Looks very fun to play.
I loved the game, and I have another scheduled on Saturday morning! Next up I’m probably playing as is Japan.
This makes me a happy brit ^^ Chocks away chaps!
Done……and done :-D
Thanks for the answer! I thought it was like that just making sure.
But why do you have to go round voting neg rating for ppl, I had a nice 0 neg rating before you came along messing around for no reason.
So please stop behaving like a child.
I have a question.
Say you have a navy in port and the port gets attacked with SBR. Can the navy take part in air defence for one round also?
WHy has Aldertag made a new account :P If only to smite people. :evil:
@Brain:
It’s most likely that guy who started the smite club.
Me too got smited, and I only have 8 postings. What kind of place is this ?
This… is… SPAA… (sorry I wont go there…)
Cheers mate!
I looked over my older posts and cant see why someone would give me it tbh. Don’t know why I’m bothered :P
