  @thethedew I don’t own the game, but I think the main point of it is that it is not WW2 based. This way the game has appeal to people who aren’t that interested in WW2.

  Let us know what you think after you’ve played a couple of games.

  @djensen Hi Dave. That sounds great. It would be fantastic if you could stay the day and play, but even a pop in visit would be good.

  The next one is this coming Sunday. After that I will set the date for the next quarterly event and let you know when it is. We are probably looking at September to avoid summer family holidays. If you want to let me know your availability September/October I will try to accommodate you.

  Cheers
  Adam

  A sea mine can be detonated against any ship that enters the zone, which includes transports deploying there. Only newly-arriving ships/transports are subject to sea mine attack. Units already present when the mines are placed do not allow the sea mine to trigger, nor are they affected should a later ship/transport enter the zone.

  In fact for the moment we still love the AA42 2d Edition for many reasons like the interception rules that is officially this way :

  Both the attacking bombers and fighter escorts, if any, fire with an attack value of 1.
  For each “1” rolled, a defending interceptor is immediately removed as a casualty. The surviving defending interceptors then fire with a defense value of 2.
  For each result of “2” or less, the attacker chooses a casualty and removes it.
  After the air battle is complete, or if there were no defending fighter interceptors, surviving fighter escorts are considered to be
  retreated. They don’t participate in the actual bombing raid, are not subject to antiaircraft fire, and will remain in the territory
  until the Noncombat Move phase. Any surviving attacking bombers carry out the bombing raid as described above.

  Plus we ask the defending factory to pay directly in IPCs the bombing (max twice the value of the territory) like in the old versions!

  Fast & Fun!

  Howdy, you get what you put into it, the figure cards reminds me of the minis, in the old Buck Rogers in the 25th. Century Game.
  You can always House Rule the game, to one’s delight. I plan to RoundRobin it, in the near future(another post, another day).
  I already gotten some minis from my old die casts Triacs and Vrocs sets.
  Adding to the game fighter bombers, hover copters, VTOL Fighters that operate from the Cruisers, Recon. Jeeps, and, a “Sour Grapes” land missile carrier.
  You can order the Bucket of Modern Air and Sea Forces, where you can pick up some nice nuke attack submarines.
  Also APCs and Hover tanks, from Fortress America and transports from A&Allies Games.
  Supplements of Forces will add more spice to your gaming, it work wonders for the old Buck Rodgers game.
  My RoundRobin will only use the original units of eight, that came with the game.
  After all Zvezda used the Command and Colors system quite nicely for some of their games.
  G.I. Joe powered by Axis and Allies rules will go quite nicely, give it time.
  Who knows what the future brings, Lord of the Rings Battle of the Five Armies powered by Axis and Allies would be interesting, thanks, Pellulo

  @Krieghund Thank you for the swift reply. I don’t think that thought crossed my opponent’s mind (we usually play Global, so the idea of attacking Germany…and leaving oneself open to counterattack…is not on the radar).

  Zombies is a different game.

  On the other hand, if you drop fleet into sea zone six (two carriers, with four fighters from southern carriers on top of them, and maybe a battleship too) , if he does bring in the bombers you can kill a lot of them with your six fighter scramble. It’ll cost a lot, but cheaper than losing the game by conceding the skies to him. You’ll still need to build a lot of replacement planes.

  If you go this route, you’ll need to keep that blocker in sea zone 16 to keep his ships from coming in. You’ll want to kill as many planes as you can at once. If you go this way, you definitely have to consolidate your fleet in two turns if he doesn’t hit sea zone 6 on his next turn.

  If he goes for Iwo, then your combined fleet can kill his fleet or target his bombers.

  No matter what you do, you have to kill most of those bombers. It’s gonna be expensive.

  If he’s going for Japan proper with it all, then consolidating your fleet is still necessary because you can’t let him land anything with that bomber stack backing it up. That being said, I would still pump some more ground forces into Japan too.

  Have fun.

  Re: Best Strategy & Tactics For Both Sides Well I just finished 2 games as the Central Powers one with contested territory and one without… I somehow won both!! Both of my opponents were very capable but I figured out a way to win. If you are playing with the allies I have no strategy for you but here is my strategy for the CP contested territory version as that is what most people are playing. Here goes:

  AH: Charge your navy at Italy because there is an ok chance you might win. Then attack Venice with both of your adjacent territories. Attack Romania with all of Budapest and Galacia. then move troops from Vienna and Bohemia to Galacia. After that you can attack Russia from both Ukraine and Sevatapol with those forces because as you will see with Germany Poland will be tied up. It is pretty self explanatory after that. I bought a battleship every turn just to keep Italy from being able to land troops.

  Germany: Throw all your navy (including subs) at Brittons home fleet on the first turn then take out Belgium with Alsace and the rurh’s forces and move Munich’s into Alsace. that will settle the western front for a while. so move the men in Prussia and Silesia into Poland(no mater the amount of Russians) then send everything else to the Russian front. I also bought a battleship a turn untill my navy was completely destroyed then I bought 2 a turn. you should also probably send a few extra troops to the western front each turn just to help out a bit. after that it should be self explanatory. But I would suggest going straight for Moscow instead of signing the armastice unless you don’t have enough troops.

  Otoman Empire: Don’t buy troops… ever… just buy battleships because if Italy’s navy gets destroyed then you can go after Brittons fleet. You can hold out with the troops you have already until your fleet is ready. also I chose to attack Serbia with the Bulgarian troops I got but it’s kinda up to you.

  As you can probably tell by now the CP need lots of navy to survive not just stonks of infantry. I also employed a very swift advance on the Russians and bogged down the allies with as little infantry as needed. A timely purchase of tanks will secure your victory on the west after the fall of russia. I really hope this helps!! And have a fun time playing the CP!!!

  @Rescue55-joe I believe the “10 IPCs for each country” that you are referring to are actually the National Control Markers, which are used to track both conquered territories and national production levels. As barnee pointed out, IPCs are not physically provided, and the Rulebook instructs us to track them on paper, but any proxy (such as Monopoly money) will do. See page 7 of the Rulebook for details on both National Control Markers and IPCs.

  In a nutshell, the National Production Track is used to chart your “income” using a National Control Marker. and every turn the “money” goes into your “bank account”, which is represented by IPCs, where it can be spent on new units (or saved for later).

  I hope this helps.

  Hi Darth,

  Yea - those Expansions brought tons of fun & challenge.

  Since then, we have developed the Axis & Allies Global 1940 House Rules Expansion - inspired by and based on those Expansions.

  You can find the Axis & Allies Global 1940 House Rules Expansion on this forum - and as you read your way through these Expansion rules you’ll recall all the good memories from the early 90’s - and much more.

  One variation that panned out early was earning Victory Points only by taking out capital ships. Not only did not the rounds get kinda endless, but, with the losing side, hunkering down on their home island(being kicked off the main board), and, facing a massive invasion.

  So what happens, the losing side stops buying capital ships, the game a tied, even thought the other side invaded and took the home island(minor victory?).

  Also VP only through islands’ airfield leads to only 9 V.P. , &, the same also using only initial capital ships for V.P., still fails to get one 15 V.P. total, thanks, Pellulo

  This Round Robin is for Japan with 22 Destroyers & 2 bombers & 11 fighters + USN fleet of just 9 Battleships & 12 fighters & 5 bombers=Japan 12 DDs in for repair & 1 Fighter & 2 Bombers left, while USN has 1 BB at sea & 1 in for repair, with 4 fighters & 5 USAAF Bombers left. The USA rules The Slot, but, for how long?, thanks, Pellulo

  @SuperbattleshipYamato

  May 9, 2025, is the 80th anniversary of the end of the Prague Uprising.

  As Nazi Germany waned in its final days, the citizens of Prague, occupied since 1939, rebelled on May 5, joined by the Russian Liberation Army, an anti-Soviet group originally created by the Germans to fight the Red Army. The rebellion was a success, with the Red Army easily occupying it after the retreat of German forces from the city.
