I had originally planned to arrive slightly earlier to set up the game, but Heng and Wong arrived very soon after I did, and we ended up all setting up the game together. They have even printed out the reference sheets that I sent just a day ago. We all reached Allen's place before 9am, all having already eaten breakfast. I have played half a game of AAP40 once, but have not even played AAE40 by itself. Instead of lazing at home or wasting our youth at shopping centres, Allen, Heng, Wong and I spent a productive work-like 9-to-5 day at Allen's place, playing for the first time Axis & Allies Global 1940 (AAG40), which combines Axis & Allies Pacific 1940 (AAP40) and Axis & Allies Europe 1940 (AAE40) into one monster of a game. Friday was Deepavali, a public holiday in Malaysia.
