I don’t understand the anger that some have towards this set up. Ok yes you can argue the historical accuracy, but c’mon, at the end of the day you are playing A&A. Lets face it, we all know the standard moves, and how to counter them, so it all comes down to luck in the dice. All you do is wait around and wait for someone to make a mistake then pounce. New set ups bring in new strategies, which is the best part. Its a brand new game using parts you already have. No need to spend, sometimes $100’s of, dollars to get a new experience. Just have fun

First off, I would like to thank all of you for the unbelievable support that I have been getting for these flight stands. Requests have been coming in from all over the world! Australia, Germany, Sweden, Netherlands, the US, UK, South America, and here in Canada. It’s been keeping me very busy to say the least, but the daunting and monotonous task of putting them all together has been made easy with the welcome that you all have given the product.

Half of the stands are now gone! Thats 3000 flight stands and 9000 magnets!

Moving forward, the base set of stands are going to be 30.5 mm still available in a set of 100 with 300 magnets for $100 CAD plus shipping.

BUT!, available in the year to come will be the variable height stands that you may have seen in the video posted earlier. 30.5mm, 37mm, and 44mm. The set will still come with 100 stands and 300 magnets, but the price for these will be $150 CAD Plus shipping. The amount of stands that you would like at each length are completely up to you. From the 100 stands in the set, you can choose how many short, medium, or long length stands you want in your set. If you really need some input, I would go with 50 short, 30 medium, and 20 long, but all that depends on strategy really. There’s only 7 STR bombers in the initial setup, but depending on your strategy, there could be as many as 15-20 on the board by turn 3-4. I know chipping them out in an option, but I keep getting told that some don’t like chipping out the aircraft because they have them going in every which direction every turn. That’s essentially why we went with so many in a set. That, and the cats, dogs, or kids can get sticky fingers and walk off with a few ;).

Thank you again for all the support.

Good day all. After a few years of having the idea, it has finally come to fruition.

Now available: Clear acrylic and engraved task force markers. The set come with six clear and engraved Task force coasters and six engraved red corresponding roundels (USA, UK, Russia, Japan, Germany, and Italy). They are available for $60 CAD shipped anywhere in the world.

Although I agree that this is a new experience playing A&A without spending for a new game, I don’t agree with everyone knowing the standard moves in Global during many 5 player group games. Opening strategies maybe, but after round 2 the board always looks different from game to game due to different philosophies players will incorporate no matter how experienced they are.

I did meant for it to read opening moves. Because no one knows what anyone will do after the opening moves, need I remind you (jiggy, jiggy, jiggy!!!)

@C_Strabala:

Those look AWESOME! I am definitely in the market to by a set or two….

Quick Question: Will you also offer a 5-hit die for the Jet-Power tech in the 2nd Edition game?

Unfortunately we don’t have the resources to gamble on a 5th type of dice, we have to order 30,000 just to get the retail cost down to something reasonable. Maybe if we sell out and need a second run, we might look into it… but for now, you will need the regular dice for your jet fighters attacking at 5 or less.

If it really is a problem, grab a siler sharpie and put a dot on the 5 spot. If you dont like it in the end, it comes off with and alcohol wipe.

@mee97 said in The Cliffside Bunker Flightstand:

I have seen the metal ones and those look good as well, the clear just looks cleaner on he board i think, from videos i have seen the clear ones seem just as sturdy as the metal ones (given your not hard on them)

I can put you on the list. I’m waiting for more washers atm. I’ll keep you posted. Send me an email so i have your info

@Imperious-Leader said in The Cliffside Bunker Flightstand:

I have more sturdy metal ones…those look like they will tip over too easily unless they are glued to that chip underneath

Thanks for your input, but GiJoe did a video on this a very long time ago. The base i use is metal and with the peg being acrylic, the flight stand is very steady with the lower centre of gravity which allowed me to make a taller flight stand.

NM. Remains uncontrolled as it were before the pingpong

Sorry if it has been covered but, if Germany uses yugo to ping pong (not defeating all the pro allied forces) which power does the ipc value of the territory go to now? I would assume it’s russia since they control the most territories in the area. If this is not the case, how is it played?

Myself and 3 others have already reserved, but If anyone still needs accommodations, I still have an extra pull out couch at the condo in Mission Viejo. Cost depends on the amount of nights you’ll be staying. All 4 nights will run you $230 CAD which is just over $50 a night. Here is a link to the place https://www.airbnb.ca/rooms/18781199  it’s about 15 mins from the tournament and a ride will be provided to and from the tournament. The Condo is fully outfitted so grocery shopping and home cooked meals is a good possibility to lighten the load on the pocket book. email me if interested. absolutelywartorn@gmail.com

Brother,

By the looks of the video you released yesterday on Russia, you are still working on the deck, but I was just curious if you had a timeline of when you were going to release the tournament deck.

This looks like an absolute gem!

@GeneralHandGrenade:

I believe it was the Germans who had orders to eliminate Cuthbert if he gave them any trouble. They had no idea who Cuthbert was but they were certain that he was up to no good.

Uh oh, you don’t know your own trivia question…

@Wikipedia:

Before making her escape, she signalled to SOE that she hoped Cuthbert would not give trouble on the way. The SOE, not understanding the reference, replied, “If Cuthbert troublesome, eliminate him”.

One thing we know about history, the winners get to write the books.
