That sounds so cool!
What are the countries,
USA, rest of NATO, Russia and China?

There are three sperate tech levels for Nukes

the least adcanced must be carried by bomber and kill five units + destroys one IPC that round.

The most advacned may me fired from three spaces away and kill ten units + destroys 2 IPC

In my opion Nukes should destroy all units and IPC in a region.

IL, that game idea of yours sounds really cool,
post some more about it
I too bought a copy of East&West, but I was disapointed buy the limted econamic damge and range of nuclear weapons.

that sounds cool, what is the homepage

Thanks alot Micoom

thats exactly what I needed

I am working on a Axis and alllies variant that involves paratroopers

I have found a lot of info on German/Russian/American/British paratroopers, even Italian, but barley any on Japanese

could someone give me a brief history of Japanese paratroopers

thx

Great Idea Yemble! This makes Axis and Allies battles somewhat tacticle

I have been working on a new Axis and Allies varint in my spare time. It sticks to the basics of the game but includes a new unit, country and board.

However, with a few tweaks your battle board would be awsome, so I was wondering if you would mine me testing your battle board in game.

I am having a  blog set up so people can monator and discus the creation of this game.

I was also thinking maybe transports could carrymoney to other nations.

The commi's did not have any territory they controlled until '44. Remember they if Japan had not invaded they would have lost in '36. Commi's could be represented by Soviet infantry that start in in China and maybe a Soviet tank. Saying you need another side for the Communists is like saying there should be a player foe the French Resistance.

Splitting up the British empire seems reasonable, but Britain and the colonise should be able to give money to each other, like in A&AP.

That works too

If Axis & Allies started in '39, '40 , or even '41 I would have much less of a problem with giving Italy it's own leader.
BUT GUESS WHAT!
 
 
 
 
It doesn't!
 

China is the way to go if you want to add a new country, but just like as if you added Italy it would take some redrawing of the map.

And if you just want to accommodate a sixth player, simply split the US up.

I suppose if the cost of a crusier was sixteen you could have it take two hits though.

one hit

Lets face it, A&A naval combat is plain and expensive.
So I took a hint from Imp Games East&West A&A Variant(Game is horrible, but it has a lot of new ideas)  and adapted them for A&A Revised

Destroyers cost 8, defend at 2 and attack at 2, however when they are in a territory with enemy subs, the subs can not submerge or sneak attack(first strike)
Carriers cost 14
Battleships cost 22

New Unit!: Cruiser: cost 10, defends 3 and attacks 3, moves 2(as always)

I usually play all A&A's, but recently I have been playtesting my own variants.

I have created one that I feel is very good, the board is a simple marker drawing.

Does anyone have any good ideas for turning is into real board like that of A&A quality.
