RE: What do your names mean?
Mine is way more complacated. In short I am a Zelda fan thus triforce, however I am also a christan and the triforce happens to be a realy good picture of the Trinity. If you have questions on the details message me.

RE: Japan's Inf.
And thats why Im asking. If you just let them sit they are a waste of Resouces. But picking them up could be tricky. Just wanted to see if anyone had a special use for them.

RE: Funniest stories
A few months back a girl at my work was flirting with me a lot. I told my GF about it and she was a bit annoyed. At any rate, the girl ended up quitting and I told my GF about it.
“Oh I am sure you are REAAALLLY heartbroken! Connie was young, and skinny, and pretty!”
I told her “oh baby, I don’t want a young, skinny, pretty girl… I want you!”
What’s funny about this is that you were trying to say the right thing… Man us guys get in trouble so easy.

RE: Anyone who plays A&A world edition using the little white book rules.

RE: If newbies are playing their first game…
Not only that but you don’t really have to work together to win to play the Axis. At the beginning of the game, Japan and Germany are kind of doing their own thing. The allies have to work together and sometimes the timing can be hard if you aren’t used to the turn sequence.
-
RE: IC builds for G?
I agree with that. Germany is so centralized that the two that they have is almost overkill. If germany gets so spread out that it needs another IC, either the game is over or someone just dosen’t know what they are doing yet.

RE: Transport capacity and the dissappearing artillery
I just cant see spending a whole lot on artillery in the first place. Its not that great of a unit. I’d rather have tanks no matter what.

RE: How many of you prefer a game where you can develop weapons?
The way I take the dice roll is that it takes time to devlop a new wepon. You put money into research, and sometimes it pays off. I never do it, unless the game is already won, mainly because i don’t need them to make my strats work. So if we are using them, fine and if not, well it just dosen’t matter much.

RE: What is your favorite country to play?
The axis is only the underdog from a historcal point of view. From the games point of view the axis are the easier powers to play since you don’t have to work together as much to come out ahead. It takes more skill to play the allies well.

RE: Japan's Inf.
No Joke. When USSR falls one of the Axis powers have so much extra money, it doesn’t realy matter anymore. The one that takes moscow helps reinforce the other.

Japan's Inf.
So Japan starts with alot of inf, but alot of them are stranded in the Pacfic Islands. What do you do with them? If you leave them where they are they get picked off. If you arent careful about picking them up on trannies they end up in davy jones locker. So, what is the most effective way to get them into the action?
-
RE: Transports=gunboats
and besides trannies with a 0 defense would be sitting ducks. Why not attack something that cant defend themselves? Its like taking planes to attack subs. You have nothing to lose so why not?

RE: Stormtroopers v.s. Clonetroopers
Uh… Stormtroopers and Clonetroopers are the same thing. just in different movies… aren’t they…? :P
For the love of all things star wars no! Once all the clones had been killed, Remember there are about 20 years between ep 3 and 4, the empire recruted troopes and they were the stormtroopers. Clones took to long and they were to expensive to make. If you notice in the orignal triligy the stormtroopers are all diffrent heights and have diffrent voices.

RE: Mel Gibson's future movies
The movie was graphic because the event was graphic. Forget the Jesus part for a bit and study up on crucifixions. They were a violent affair. Nobody got upset with saving private ryan because war is violent and the movie was about a war. If you can’t handle a realistic depiction of a historical event which was probally far worse than anything Mel put on the screen, don’t watch it. Incednetly the guy that played Jesus was struck by lightning while on the cross. Kindof freaky.

RE: Multi-National forces on ATTACK
As far as I can tell, The rules out of the box work just fine for me. I know that they are poorly witten but hey we can’t all be perfect. Also I have no problem winning with the Axis without a bid so I’m not to sure what is out of balance here. The allies have to work together and the axis has to find a way to keep that from happining.

RE: Units
Which is how it has to be. All the money is there and frankly this game comes down to money in alot of ways. I wish that there was more naval combat to be had but there just isn’t. Thats sad for us History people, but this game is all about rewriting history.
-
RE: Units
I agree with Jetfan except I think Japan has to focus on a navy somewhat being an Island nation and all…
-
RE: Rule question
turns out I’ve been playing wrong all this time. Sometimes those little details get past me even after having played for months now, and having a good grasp on the rules.

RE: J1 Kwangtung IC.
I always put my first IC in Kwang. It gives Easy access to all three lines of attack to russa. I use trannies from Japan to do the rest.
