@flyingbadger Hello,
from Central, PA. Iโve been a gamer for nearly 42 years and still enjoy sitting down to simpler games such as Axis & Allies.
Currently Iโve been developing a Korean War game. Images can be found in the variants forum. -

Greetings A&A community. I have been wrangled into the fold here by persistent members who want to print the best looking mats for their game. I create mats on 1/8" thick neoprene rubber, printed in a minimum of 300 dpi resolution. I have made tons of mats for folks from here already, and stock some popular ones that folks keep coming back for. I make mats for tons of games, and that is kinda my business.
I started playing Axis & Allies in 1986, and for a decade it was easily my favorite game. It was what in part led to me getting into the gaming industry, where today I make mats, games, and toys for all of us adult kids. Feel free to reach out to me if you need a mat printed, or some 3d resin prints as well.
Cheers,
Eric -
there is already an interesting Axis and Allies Korea, i enjoyed watching it
-
@taamvan Iโd be very interested in seeing that game. If you check in the custom game section you can see pics of my game when it was being play tested.
-
@dishero welcome!
-
@reardon Sorry to hear about your game board. Same thing happened to my anniversary board. lesson, play no board game under bathroom pipes!
-
@taamvan Working on finishing new map and rules to fix errors. Stay Tuned

I am new to the axis and alliesโ community but what I lack in experience I make for in enthusiasm. My grandkids are outgrowing risk and they have taken over monopoly and making their own rules. I am moving them up to A&A and will look here for advice tips etc. Looking forward to being part of the community.
Cheers

Which games do you have?
-
@andrewaagamer I do not have original anniversary or 1914 and o w other I am sorting but I do have all the rest
-
So Spring edition 1942 is the easiest to learn. Depending how sophisticated your grand kids are you may or may not want to start them on that game.
If they are already too experienced for that one if you had AA50 I would recommend that one since the ruleset is the best and not as complicated as Global 1940, Europe 1940 or Pacific 1940. Since you have Revised that would be my recommendation for a more complex game.
Glad you are teaching the next Generation!

Hello everyone, Iโm new to the community. Iโm located in the greater Seattle, WA, USA area. Iโm currently playing Axis and Allies online. I was just gifted the 1942 2nd edition board game in Dec of 2022, but havenโt gotten much use out of it because I only know one person that plays and itโs an all day event.
Iโve been actively making a few turns a day for the last month or two online. Before that I played a few times as a teenager with my dad. The stages of learning has been obviously tiered. In short Iโve learned what works against the computer, doesnโt work against people. Playing the computer just teaches you bad habit. Then I learned what works against bronze players doesnโt work against silver players. This week I got a custom game against a platinum player and realized what works in silver doesnโt work in the more advanced play. Iโm excited that I got a game against a platinum player because Iโve been punished for mistakes that I previously didnโt know I was making. I learned more in one losing platinum game then I think I have in all other games combined.
If anyone know of some users who post their games on youtube with detailed commentary about their thoughts and strategy Iโd love to know which channels. I just found TTG who Iโve liked because he talks through a lot of his thought process.
Looking forward to playing against you all and chatting with you on the forums.

Hi @salish_rogue-0 Welcome to the site ! You may want to browse some of the posts here https://www.axisandallies.org/forums/category/47/axis-allies-1942-2nd-edition
You can also play online with triplea https://www.axisandallies.org/forums/topic/17147/gargantua-s-k-i-s-s-triplea-instructions/30
Idk how much 2nd edition is played but revised seems quite popular
-
@barnee triplea looks pretty cool. Do you know if there are a lot of players on triplea that arenโt playing on the steam axis and allies online?
-
@salish_rogue-0 not as many as there used to be but still decent traffic. The lobby is live play and then you can play by forum or email as well.
A revised tournament is starting soon https://forums.triplea-game.org/topic/3404/revised-toc19-signup
Misread your comment. I donโt think many use steam

Contact @GeneralDisarray and @MarshmallowofWar. They both used to be in the same play group with me in Seattle and they are both still there. There are about 8-10 active Players in the Seattle area.
