Hi folks, Jon here.
Iām a former board game and card game designer (two products completed, sold like 10 copies of each!), and Iāve always enjoyed A&A, but havenāt had much opportunity to play in the last few years. Got back into it playing in a Classic tournament at GenCon this year, and figured I would try to find some people to play with around Houston.
Iāve played 1942 2nd Ed. and Classic (1984), but would be up for trying out other versions. Iāve played with a few house rules (e.g. Russia canāt attack turn 1, bid IPCs for right to play Allies) and I am thinking about home-brewing a rule to make the research mechanic from Classic actually worthwhile, but I donāt care about these things and am happy to play whichever way.
Letās meet up, have a few beers, and play a game or two!
Cheers,
Jon

Hi Jon,
Welcome to the forum.
Since you play with a few house rules, you might find inspiration in the Axis & Allies Global 1940 House Rules Expansion.
We even have a Basic Expansion - and a 1943 Expansion as well.
Some of these house rules were original designed for use with the Classic and Revised editions.
Youāll find the thread under āCustomizationā - āHouse Rulesā section.
Have fun:+1:

Wanted to reintroduce myself as I have been active on here for a while now . I have a new YouTube Channel I would love for you to check out my first video!
I play A&A 1914, Global 40 Balanced Mod, 3G40/Young grasshopper tournament edition, Path To Victory (TripleA only adaptation/modification of Balanced Mod), HBG GW36 Version 3, and A&A Guadalcanal! I have played a number of expansions for HBG GW36 and consider GW36 V3 my top game!

@theveteran Iām still very active on various editions of A&A over the YouTube, and so I canāt say Iām interested in the HBG global war games- whenever you start putting A&A content on a regular basis on your channel then Iāll definitely subscribe to you!!!

Hello all,
I am Cody Burton. I am 22 and have been playing A&A since birth! I am in the military, currently stationed in SK. So if anyone has a board here I am down to playā¦ any board. Sadly since joining the mil I havenāt played A&A. Nor do I have any of my boards with me.

Hey Cody,
welcome.
Cody, do you know about vassal? It is a way to play military games without a physical board.

Here you go Cody

Hi all warmongers!
I am Ron and discharged from military since 2016. I only started playing A&A 3 years ago. Loves the game so much that I bought D-Day to āenticeā my son into it! Iām lucky to have a bunch of good buddies to play the game once in awhile but due to the current covid situation we have to stop for awhile. Be responsible and stay safe guys!

@bigwatcher Nice to meet you! Itās awesome that you have a group to play with!

@bigwatcher WELCOME!
Yes, not being able to play in person sucks. Canāt wait for life to return to normal and being able to play face to face again.
WELCOME!

@tincanofthesea yepā¦lucky that the country i come from is kinda small, meeting up for game is not a problem at all

@andrewaagamer Thanks!..yes canāt wait for things to be back to norm soon.

Hi, anikom15 here. Iāve been playing since the MB days.
I came here to ask questions. Unfortunately, I donāt have a lot of time to play games these days but still play on occasion. Iām interested in simulation design (on the board and via software) and like to study the design process of various board games.
Iām in the Los Angeles area. If you are looking for a player, DM me.

Welcome aboard. Are you familiar with TripleA? Itās what most people use on the forum to play games with each other electronically. Itās also open as an engine for anyone to design new games/scenarios on. It might be of interest if youāre into designing games.
Thereās also the below thread which houses conversations on a lot of custom variants people have come up with. Balance Mod and Path to Victory exist in Triple A and are the most played in the league.
https://www.axisandallies.org/forums/category/13/other-axis-allies-variantsI worked on a 1940 Global Alternate Universe map/game which you can check out here if youāre interested:
