I saw the advertisements’ descriptions saying 4 new sculpts. Huh. Most noteworthy to me is the MSRP of $100 USD - wow! Really going after that second market with an immediate ebay buy it now list price.

4 new sculpts…maybe it means something like new infantry sculpts…would be cool if the game incorporated some of the stuff from Global like tac. bombers.

Who knows, maybe Star Destroyers are going to be a new sculpt but available only for the Storm Trooper country.

I’m definitely going to buy this one when it comes out. Can’t Wait!!!

I really hope they do something about the archaic AA gun and air battle rules, in spite of their comments.

That’s odd.  This…

http://wpn.wizards.com/en/products/axis-allies

…says the release date is 9/22/2017.

[Dorowar]

Ordered mine, very exciting!  I figured either the 9/22 was a guess by someone or maybe it was an original estimated release that has changed.  Or maybe, Amazon gets theirs after the initial release to give time to smaller localized game companies to get their sales in before Amazon blasts the game world wide.

T6GCON is currently ACTIVELY working with 401 games AND WotC… And, as certainly a lot of you know by now… Larry Harris is coming to T6GCON and we can confirm that Harry will sign things for the fans… He is a very approachable person.

We are still working with WoTC and 401 to make sure that we can have the Anniversary Edition available right at the convention! So stay tuned and follow YG’s YouTube channel for announcements…

The latest version of this…

Axis & Allies Anniversary Edition

I hope some minor rules modifications are implemented. I mean I would like to see a few less fighters for Japan round 1 or I don’t know another infantry in Hawaii… or something.

[wartorn]

well, they missed the soft release here in Canada. Said it would be the 22nd of September. Sad that LH won’t be able to sign it. Oh well. Maybe just the original.

[Wolfshanze]

So, Amazon says this will be released Friday October 20th… though I’d love to be first in-line to pick it up, at $75 at probably one of the worst months of the year for me financially (October is always an expensive month when the kids want to go all-out on Halloween and we always have the County Fair and other stuff going on this time of year), I just don’t have the spare cash to be first in line… and then as soon as this month is over, we got Christmas looming over the horizon…

Any predictions as to the availability of this reprint? Is this a “limited” reprint like they said the original release was? I know the hard core folks around here and elsewhere will certainly be picking their copies up pronto…

I guess what I’m asking is this… I definitely want/will pick this edition up, but man, timing couldn’t be worse… I probably am looking at more Jan/Feb to be picking this up, I’m just worried if there’s some sort of limited print run and/or zounds of crazed fans buying every copy up and when I have spare cash early next year there’s none left on shelves.

Are my fears warranted or am I just being paranoid… does anyone predict having issues picking this up a few months after it becomes available?

[Bob77]

I preordered 2, just in case. If its out of print b4 you can buy it, i sell you one for $400 @ tax refund time.
