Hopefully this will increase the usefulness of my favourite little web app: http://frood.net/aacalc/ now allows you to have the results e-mailed to multiple...
Nicely done, Dan. You might want to change the text on "lTra" to be a capital-L because it can be read as "i" tra, or "1" tra. It took me a second to figure ...
Thanks. The "LTra" field is for loaded transports (as you now have figured out). The reason I have a separate field for them is that they are worth more than...
... Yes, the transports are involved and can be casualties with all their loaded units, if the naval battle goes bad! You have to win the naval battle before...
Well Gents, GenCon 2006 is history. Greg Smorey ran another excellent tournament and a whole lot of dice got thrown in the great state of Indiana. Thanks Greg!...
Yo, Thanks to Greg for running another great tourney. Every year it seems to get better. There was documentation providing info on all the specifics of the...
Just one more thing from Gencon. I originally was not too interested in A&A: Battle of the Bulge, but after seeing the prototype and hearing from people who...
Congrats Ben, You gave us a great game Saturday night. I agree and it is an insane amount of gaming for one day, I am going to need to do some endurance ...
Congrats on your win Crazystraw Squirecam **** [ADDED BY EDITOR THEMARVINMARTIAN] Thanks! But what happened in your game?! Give us the dish on the Masters...
Thanks MudDog. That was a very enjoyable game with you and Frog. I loved the fact that Frog came ready to "play the man" and he went after some weaknesses I...
First: Congrats to Martian. That was a HUGE run! Second: Anyone who didn't go to GCI should SERIOUSLY consider going next year. Plan for it now. Smorey ...
... Well Mike, you did your job! By telling us all your Gencon tournament experience you surely attract me a lot! I heard of a Gencon side-edition in Europe,...
... Masters final. ... Short answer: Butch controlled the final. He decided to play allies and try to "kill Germany first". To me, that did not sound like a...
Hey Squire. Thanks for the update. And congrats to you and your partner on a good run even if you didn't get the biggest prize THIS year. Frankly, I think the...
After reading the Caspian Sub policy paper on the IIC, I'm still having trouble seeing how Japan can "overwhelm" the IIC while still destroying the Pearl...
Thanks for that helpful clarification, Scipio. Just to let people know, I just noticed yesterday that the output for running the battle once could be really...
Bear with me, but... Instead of actually DOING a KJF, couldn't you modify this to give Germany a sense of security it does not have? For instance: Russia Round...
... You meant "1 car, 1 sub, *1* ftr in *SZ 52*", right? There is one US fighter on the US carrier in sea zone 52 and one US fighter (and two US infantry) in...
... Hey Nikita. Interesting thought. Here are some comments: A. MightyAirforce and I looked at two things along these lines: 1) Feinting KJF 2) Punishing USSR...
... Hey Arthur. Thanks for the post. Couple of comments for you: Uno: Remember the paper doesn't say the complex can't be held; it says the UK can't do it...
My brief comments: The IIC is certainly a viable strategy for tournament/turn or time-limited games. It can be used in a full "KJF" or in conjunction with an...
Two things: 1. I'm very dubious that UKR can be taken so easily without fighters! Like Themarvinmartian said, a little inf bid in UKR and it's very dangerous....
For the India Complex question, one must remember that the IIC paper NEVER tells about a Japanese ROUND 1 attack on India. This is almost impossible, more so...
... That game was a masters smifinal. And Germany should have lost earlier but had extreme dice in a USSR attack on Germany. I wouldnt assume that Germany was...
... help. ... before ... hold ... culd ... could ... Russian ... really ... KJF = be safe on western front = no UKR attack (or if so, only strafe). Squirecam...
Hey kids. Two more bits of info for you: In the AA P/E tournament a couple more local guys took home some hardware. 2nd Place: Brian Ferguson(MI)/Rodrick...
I guess the dice DO matter, then!! ;-) Thanks for the clarification on that game, Squire! Have you found that it's a reasonable expectation to crack Tokyo...
A lot of really good comments here. Let me offer one more perspective on the India complex- We play with total domination, N/A's, Jap-Rus Nonagression treaty,...
I have a "Stall Japan Tactic" that is commonly used in our games. I am looking for thoughts on it. I would also love to hear good counters for it. Thanks in...
