SOPAC Enhanced Airbase Cards, Player Log Sheet, and NEW Player Reference Card and Save Game sheets

I am charging $14 for a set of all of these items and that will include shipping to anywhere in the United States and Canada. They will be shipped USPS first-class in a well-protected stiff envelope to help avoid any shipping damage. Here are the items:

• Player Log Sheet: This is a replacement for the Player Log Sheet that came with SOPAC. It is two-sided with room for up to 60 turns. There is more room to write movements as well as special narrow columns for submarines with boxes for checking off torpedo usage. It has extra columns for weather and victory points as well as space for notes off to one side. Most importantly, there is no shading for night and twilight turns (it is indicated next to the turn number instead). This makes it much easier to write in these boxes and makes the sheet easier to photocopy. I will provide 10 two-sided copies and they are optimized for photocopying so you can create as many as you need.
• Flight Planning Sheet: This is an extended log sheet for planning your airplane flights as my Player Log Sheet no longer contains a place for this information. For each flight, you can indicate its source, destination, range, mission, etc. There is also plenty of room for player notes as well as a table on which you can keep track of airfield damage. The back of this page has the Save Game Sheet below (10 of these will be provided). These are also designed for easy copying.
• Save Game Sheet: This is a completely original item that allows each player to quickly record the state of the game at any point. If both players do this, the game can be put away completely and restored at a later time. Allows you to record your fleets and their contents, the amount of both full- and half-strength aircraft markers at each base and carrier, their types, and what state they are in. Also has a place to store which task forces have been sighted (this turn and last) as well as a record of any flights in progress. This is on the back of the Flight Planning Sheet (10 of these will be provided). This is also designed for easy copying.
• New Airbase Cards: I have created replacements for the Axis and Allied airbase cards provided with SOPAC. These are printed on thicker paper than the originals (110# ivory). Most importantly, each player now has three 8-1/2 by 11 airbase cards (for a total of 6). This provides much more room so you can manage your aircraft quicker and easier. Includes all airfields and carriers that are on the originals and also notes the max capacity for each airfield/carrier. Each airfield/carrier spans 8" wide and is between 1" and 2" tall (big airbases are 2" tall, most carriers are 1" tall, numbered bases vary to give you a nice selection). Each of these uses shading to define 2-4 rows. I place different types of aircraft in each row (i.e. top row is for fighters, next row is for land strike, etc.). You can then move airplanes across the rows as you make your assignments. Also includes a new box for "Flight" (in addition to hangar, ready, CAP, ASW, and Search). I use this Flight box when I'm putting up my air patrols to pre-plan my flights. Any aircraft in the ready box that I know I want to put on a flight later, I move into this box so I don't assign them to air patrols. During the air mission plot phase, I move these planes into the appropriate flight boxes, make an entry on the Flight Planning Sheet, and place a flight marker in the Flight box on the airbase card.
• New Player Reference Cards: This took the most time to do by far. It is a two-sided player reference card printed on 110# ivory paper (pretty thick). I will provide two double-sided copies of this card. This, in addition to the SOPAC tables card (which I recommend making a copy of so both players can have their own), will allow you to play the game for extended periods without use of the manual. Again, these are of much higher quality than the original SOPAC tables (but are not meant as a replacement). Finally, please be aware that, although they contain specific information about SOPAC, there are a few places where data from the original SOPAC tables is referenced. These tables were changed slightly in newer SWWAS games. As advised by Avalanche Press, I use the newer table values. You can see what changed in the tables from SOPAC to later version by looking here. These cards include:
  • Player Reference (front)
    • Sequence of Play (game phase listing)
    • Aircraft Carrier operations rule summary
    • Victory Points table
    • Airfield operation reference
    • Foundering rules and procedures
    • Cargo capacity and load/unload time tables
    • Weather table with summary of all weather limitations.
    • Air Operations rules summary
    • Port Rules summary
    • Fuel Consumption table
    • Cruiser floatplane reference
    • Task Force Mission summary table
    • Drop Tank reference
    • Refueling rules
    • Flight distances between all ports and airfields.
  • Combat Reference (back)
    • Stacking Limitations table
    • Airfield Bombardment reference table
    • Long Lance Torpedo reference table
    • Other torpedo reference
    • Gunnery table with range, weather restrictions, and armor penetration abilities
    • Substitute damage table
    • Airfield damage table
    • CAP Interception rules
    • (Optional) Secondary Penetration rules table
    • Aircraft carrier rules for combat
    • Running aground and refloating reference
    • AA Values table
    • Aircraft patrols/missions summary table
    • Disengagement rules
    • ASW search procedure
    • Special naval combat rules summary/listing
    • Dead in water reference table
    • Submarine search, ASW, and attack procedures
    • Air-to-air combat reference
• Instruction Sheet: Instructions on the use of these accessories.

These sets are completely unofficial and I am in no way affiliated with Avalanche Press (except that I like their games). Note that these are completely useless without the actual SOPAC game from Avalanche Press!

In summary, you will receive:

• 10 copies of the easy-to-copy, two-sided enhanced Player Log Sheet (30 turns per side).
• 10 copies of the easy-to-copy, Flight Planning Sheet with the Save Game Sheet on the back.
• Six enhanced Airbase Cards (3 Axis, 3 Allied) printed on heavy, ivory paper.
• Two two-sided Player Reference Cards printed on heavy, ivory paper.
• One-page instructions on the accessories.

If you want to save some money, consider ordering both the SOPAC and Bomb Alley sets together. I am offering both sets for $22 including shipping and handling (you save $8).
