Poll: What A&A Games do you play?

[Sergente nella neve]

From Revised and Pacific only, I changed my vote to Revised, Pacific, Europe, BoB and Guadalcanal.

I love Axis and Allies minatures. As much as I love playing "Axis & Allies" (I'm not sure if it's revised or 2nd; my friend brings it over and I own "Eupope") I'm in love with playing the miniature game right now. I love how tactical it gets in close proximity. I love the miniatures and the tanks. I'm disappointed with the planes and their rules (especially the JU-87 Suka) which is ridiculous considering it was Germanys most effective infantry support plane.

I love being able to pick out my own army and have the choice from the very beginning of how to approach the field from a strategic standpoint. There are a few rules between the Old rules and the new advanced rules we chose to not to play with becuase they take up time & aren't incredibly realistic. The miniature are exciting to get, incredibly good looking and fun to have just as a collection.

I will say that I love "Axis & Allies" (the whole world board) because of how realistic every decision you make plays out in the game. For instance, I've never seen Germany win but this last game was the first I've played in 3 years. I've been studying the Luftwaffe avidly for 2 years so I made key decisions in the beginning of the game that Walter Weaver would have made, had he not died in a plane crash during the Reichs rise to power. I initiated a long range bomber plan and addressed the Russian front immediately while building a defensive western front.

Japan while doing incredible damage, was taken by the US. By this time my strategy had paid off and my resources as Germany were vast (highest IPC's per turn by FAR) After the successful invasion of England and the decimation of Americas atlantic naval fleet, my opponent surrendered because the successful invasion of the US was just writing on the wall.

The game is brilliant. I was able to take key mistakes the Reich had made, specifically concerning the Luftwaffe and fighting a 2 front war, and make alternate decisions that allowed Germany to win.

I own the Pacific, Europe, D-Day, AA50, AA Classic, and will be purchasing the new AAR.
We tend to play AA50 the most right now as it has more to offer and is still new to us.
I did not see AA50 on there as a choice to vote on. That one appears to be missing.

[jeffdestroyer]

it is an old poll started in 2008..before AA50

Of course! I should have spotted that, thank you JD

[Brain Damaged]

I also play AA50.

[C_Strabala]

   Europe is my favorite.

[FieldMarshalGames]

   Europe is my favorite.

I have to agree.

Europe is my "old" favorite.  I mostly play AA50 and AAP40 now.

Always had a soft spot for D-Day...  when I have one friend over and want a quick game.

I play all of the board games from the MB 2nd edition rules to the new AAP40. I rotate so I am not stuck on any one game for a long period of time.

I started playing 2nd Ed. probably in 2000 or so, when I could find someone to play with.  Then I got a copy of Europe, and loved playing it.  One of my friends had picked up a copy of Revised and we had a session and I couldn't go back to 2nd Edition so I picked up a copy and have since played the crap out of it.  I eventually got a copy of Pacific and have only played 2 or 3 games of it and didn't really care for it.  Somewhere along the line I got a copy of D-Day and love it for quick games.  I bought anniversary on day one and only recently have switched over to playing Pacific 1940, which is great now that we have sorted most of the wrinkles out. 

So mainly I play A&A50 and A&AP40.  I am looking forward to Europe 1940 and the World Game of 1940 when that comes out.

AAA50th - if it was an option... like Europe a lot.

[Bruda_Iz]

I would have to put global if this poll was taken today.  As it is I choose Revised.  I still think revised is great and a good game to start new players on.

[aarules]

I play revised, miniatures, and Guadalcanal.
