Same as with OOB

This sounds like a great idea–Germany shouldn’t be able to guard N. Italy, W. Ger and Ger. They have to guard all 3, you only need 1 to bomb. Perhaps then hit France/Normandy/SFrance? Cause those give them 9 units, plus the Russian factories…

Simple answer: Never
Complicated answer: Never

Wow! I’ve been playing it wrong all along. But putting the Jap fleet at Pearl is REALLY leaving yourself in danger.

It all depends on what the Axis do. If they go Sealion (or appear to be doing so), FULL INFANTRY. If not, a minor is nice UK2 (coolrunner, where do you put it on UK1?). For the Pacific, I like full-inf with maybe an art or AA so that Japan has to put too much into taking India.

Guys I’m not going to be available with consistency until the end of June…school happened.

Good! We are growing!

@Azrael:

@techroll42:

Yes, 1942 2nd Edition is legit. I have never questioned that. I still don’t see an A&A 1941 flier, just saying.

http://www.funagain.com/control/product;jsessionid=71A6802287EF96958E51859B806A1974.jvm1?product_id=025815

its all part of a conspiracy where april 1st jokes go to may 1st a new prank day called may-day don’t believe anything until may 2nd.

I’m just wondering why there would be 1 legit link, NOTHING on WOTC or Harris’s site…

@Noll:

If Techroll42 is ok I’d call our team like this:

Onward! Defrosted Tuna Team

How about the DD-TT (Double Defrosted-Tuna Team)?

Pretty simple: UKE fighters to Moscow, ASAP. Make Germany spend money and TIME on Moscow. Also HOLD CAIRO! HOLD THAT CITY.

UKP, US, ANZAC: KJF if Cairo is held to not have Japan hanging around and alive.

@Cmdr:

No, the fleet move wasnt changed that long ago, I was still pretty darn active over there making sure Larry didnt sneak a change in on me.�  Maybe January the fleet changes moved.�  I’ve always liked the new AA Gun rules, it makes guns more valuable, less cost and more utilitarian.

The final changes were accepted early February.

Okay.  I see it on his page too, musta missed it first time through, but yea, basically, only the fleet changed?  (Some uniforms, but that’s it other than fleet?)

Fleet, +1 AA India, +some UK land

OH yeah, one more thing. I’m going to CALI in late June…

Thanks Noll! Sure you’ll do better than me.

However, I was a bit quick to sign up for this. I might be too busy, but I think I’ll be able to handle this.

This might be cool, and $200…good for the site, no? Or for me…

The reason is paratroopers have no heavy (and sometimes no light) artillery, no tanks, no trucks, and even a shortage of machine guns.

Also they have limited ammo and food.

@RedIndian:

Now he gets the attention he deserves

Just 2 little questions:

Start-up ITa and USA: ON A+3 Larry only says:

North-Italy: …… 1 Bomber? = 1 Strategic or 1 Tactical

Same US: Central USA: 1 Bomber = 1 Strategic or 1 Tactical?

I thought both were Strategic, am I right?

Yeah.

Bomber=Strategic Bomber

@jim010:

I’ll leave with one question: Do you think WOTC would release 2 games at the same time? Doesn’t really make sense–there was a bigger delay between Europe and Pacific 1940, IIRC

Pacific 1940 and AA 1942 (first editon) were both released in the same year.   :roll:

Yeah, that’s true. But there’s about 1 month between the releases, and it’s not even around the holiday season!

@Col.:

I think Uncrustable and Techroll should have to buy us all one copy of each of the new 1941 and 1942 games once they come out. Where they get that any of this could be a joke is beyond me.

I’d like to see them say that the new 1942 game is an April Fool’s joke like they thought 1941 was even though nothing about 1941 had anything to do with April 1.

The ONLY REASON I believe that this is a joke is that:

1. There has been a lot of false information (broken links) on this game
2. I have yet to see anything official on WOTC’s site.

If you can link me to WOTC’s site saying “This game exists.” then I’ll admit I was wrong and apologize for wasting your time. But I am yet to see that. And by official, I mean a page/link on the site, NOT some PDF I could easily fake.

I believe that the 2nd Edition 1942 game is legitimate. If I can have proof, great.

I’ll leave with one question: Do you think WOTC would release 2 games at the same time? Doesn’t really make sense–there was a bigger delay between Europe and Pacific 1940, IIRC.

Never, because there is no “new map” because there is no game.

If this was real, we’d have seen it already.

@Cow:

Can I build a major factory in egypt? Only 3 IPC territories originally mine right? Or can russia build a major IC on romania?

No to both

I have that. I meant what are the changes from Alpha+3 to Alpha+3.9 (i.e. the “Sealion changes”)?

@Uncrustable:

@Cow:

I been doing j1 DOW alot lately. it is pretty good. don’t knock it till you try it.

your germany should probably buy 10 inf round 1. and lots of mech/tank round 2. push russia hard.

it is not insane. usa is just out of position anyway. and +23 a round sooner (you DOW japan 2 anyway unless germany is doing sea lion and usa bought 5 bombers).
~

the downside to japan 1 dow is it makes sea lion impossible and buyin naval for germany a bad idea. USA buys 4 bombers round 1. sends 5 bomber to uk round 2 so you probably lose a sea lion attempt at uk. then more bombers come in and you lose your naval while he lands in archangel or something.

so as long as you know you are doing russia with germany and no naval bs. italy does his best for africa (calling in airstrikes from germany when he needs em). japan does his thing, hopefully you don’t get diced in calcutta like send 2x his stuff and walk out 1 for 1 in casualties… :\  you be fine.

USA will not collect the NOs untill round 3 and cant move till round 4.

DOW on UK does not pull in USA lol
why does Japan DOW USA round 2 anyway? There is no logic there

There is no reason to do anything against USA til round 3 or 4.

DOW UK/ANZAC/USSR round 1 or 2 or 3 it really doesnt matter but i dont even see the benefit of DOW USA untill last possible moment.
Philippines is def not worth it lol what 2 IPCs ? and you kill 2 ships…lmao

So you essentially give the USA ~50 IPCs and you get… FOUR, yeah that makes sense (not to mention the 10 IPCs japan bonus that you wont get)
And USA will be MORE in position to fight you not less lol, by not DOW USA they have to stay away from you and in the Atlantic they cant even leave USA Shoreline save one seazone in the middle of the atlantic Now USA will go get brazil (6 extra IPCs…for the 2 extra turns theyl have it and 4 INF 2 rounds earlier)

seriously do you see the lack of sense in your argument ?

and the ‘dont knock it til you try it’ is a cop-out, its not an argument, its what gay men say to straight men for cryin out loud

But if you DOW UK/ANZAC US can DW.

Umm…unless I’m missing something, bombers in UK can’t even hit Berlin.
