Do the game boards always end up warped?
Or have they managed to fix the issue?

RE: Please Read Before Opening your Anniversary Box 2017!
Received my copy of the game today…all 8 of my storage box tops are damaged … and I’m missing a Japanese transport ship (I think…the one with the smoke stacks)
Also game boards are all warped OOB (i have a heavy board game box on top trying to flatten them
I sent a request to customer service …

Missing pieces is my game still playable?
I was given a copy of the 1987 version of the game, I’m missing the following:
1 USSR Fighter
1 UK Fighter
3 Japanese Infantry
2 US Infantry
1 German Control Marker
2 IPCs Value 1
2 IPCs Value 5
5 IPCs Value 10And my Plastic Chip count is 57 White and 5 Red …not sure how much i need of each
Is the game playable with this or should I source replacement pieces?

RE: Need help with what version of A&A to get
How do i play solo without triple a? Just play all powers by myself independently without bias?

RE: Need help with what version of A&A to get
Managed to order the anniversary edition so hopefully it’ll work out for our needs
Should i also grab a copy of 1941 as a introductory or just suck it up and roll with AA50?
Is there an option to play this game solo (so i can invest some time to learn rules so i can teach others)

RE: Need help with what version of A&A to get
how much more complicated is the Anniversary over 1942 2nd Ed.?
are their variants to streamline play if we only have a couple hours to kill? (like control 1 or 2 enemy capitals as per the 1941 game, or does the increase number of areas on the large anniversary map make this and option that is not a feasible?)
It seems like the Anniversary Version is starting to sell out already here in Canada … I’m wondering if I just go for it while the price is reasonable, if its the definitive version … but at the same time I don’t wanna completely turn him off of a game with too many bits and rules.
From what I’ve read online in the past few days it seems like 1941 would be too simplified for my tastes.

Need help with what version of A&A to get
So im thinking of getting a copy of axis and allies for when my brother in law is over to visit
I can potentially get my hands on or buy the following versions of the game…classic, 1942 1st ed, 1942 2nd ed, 1941 and anniversary
Are their variants that let me play the anniversary or 1942 versions with the play time of the 1941 version in case we dont have the time to get a full game in when he is over to visit? Or should i just get Risk or the 1941 edition instead?
BTW I’ve never played an Axis game…my head says get 1941 but my heart says anniversary or 1942 2nd and my wallet says classic or 1942 1st…im torn…lol
From my research, the anniversary is obviously the most impressive looking version, but a long play time might not be feasible? And my BIL is not much of a gamer aside from playing games like risk, monopoly and clue as a kid …but he is a huge WW2 history buff…I’m an avid gamer so complicated rule sets don’t bother me.
My wife and kids may also want to have a crack at it at some point…may use them to playtest and learn the rules, unless there is a solo variant I could use instead
