what Hobbes is saying is 100% true. But, where tanks become a real problem for the allies is on Persia. Stack 8+ there and use German force to open Kazhak. Even if the Allies know to look for it, the mere threat of it is often enough for them to give up the Caucausus complex.

…… here is the link

i think it totally rocks… it is like gamesbyemail.com classic AA where you can play some one over the course of a few days when you get the time but, it is revised AA!!! … what you need:
-facebook account
-gametableonline.com account
-windows computer with the latest java… the site says it works with linux but, i did not try and, i know it does not work with most macs ( not even with windows in vmware or parallels … it does work with a bootcamp/windows mac ).
…also there is no bidding… out of the box rules and, i think casualties are selected by cost which is just fine about 99% of the time…
-
The better graphics alone are not gonna pull me away from TripleA, which provides more variety, doesn’t force me in creating a facebook-account, and lets me choose my own casualty (since I dont agree with your 99% rule).
Nonetheless, nice find, and a good prelude for facebook users who never played it to get them interested.

…yeah and it is also a bit buggy from what i understand… but it is a start … maybe they can work out the kinks…if only the guy who runs gamesbyemail.com would make a revised / lhtr version… i also like triple a but my axis and allies buddies ( i played the board game with these guys as a young lad ) are unable to attach a file to an email! i mean c’mon already!!!
ps : you can also lose casualties by the weakest defense roll first

I just started using the gametableonline site for my A&A fix. I’m loving it as it is the same program that was on the Gleemax boards at Wizards. Now I can play A&A whenever I desire, life is good.
