Thanks Ozone27. I was playing this strategy out on the CD version of A&A and I attacked with two British bombers. Both were shot down by AA fire on the first attack. This shows the risk of such a tactic and shows how the AA guns are all messed up in the game. But this isolated incident should not hurt its tactical luster and possibility.

Thanks Krieg.

Well, if I get attacked in AZO, life is GUNNA suck. I was figuring I could land those fighters, but I guess not. Anyway, I doubt he’ll attack, he’s got a great chance to do serious damage to the Allies’ shipping fleet, but at the cost of the entire Japanese navy and almost the entire Japanese air force.

I’ll download those rules, would be good to have on file anyway, even if I only play one game in a million in classic anymore! ^_^

Who says the fighters will be lost? The fighters will prevent Germany from taking Egypt and after the UK kicks Germany out of Africa, Russia can move them back.

well i just tried the tek thing:

I agreed to give germany +2 men in eastern europe. Russia for some reason didn’t defend karelia very well, and it fell hard. Then germany lands it’s air in western europe, and uk get’s lucky and destroys all but 2 fighters. Then I roll 6 tek, get heavy bombers and super subs. So I kill the remaining fighters. Sadly russia wouln’t listen to me, and doesn’t defend russia, instead takes more territories from japan (giving money to germany) russia falls, and we surrender because the axis will easily get 84.

But if russia didn’t play so bad it would have worked…

I’ve run into the same problem. Sometimes the game freezes. It doesn’t happen much, but it does happen. The AI on the computer is pretty bad. it always plays very defensively.

I was at a local gaming convention. This guy had a large, 6x3, Axis and Allies board. He said it was home made, but wouldn’t tell me how to make it unless I went to another convention a few months later, much farther away. I couldn’t go to that convention for various reasons, so I never found out. This board looked just like the one that comes with Axis and Allies. Does anyone know how to make one? Is there a site I can go to with instructions? I thank you all for any help that is given!

I would think this would be the other way around. First, the Japanese high command was not averse to continuing their war with America. In order to understand this, you have to know high factor national honor is to the Japanese and their Code of the Bushido. Even after the first atomic bomb was dropped, the military leaders still believed with the right combination of AA guns that such bombers and bombs could be hit while still in the sky. The Japanese even experimented with sound vibrations in which to knock down enemy craft! However, with the Russians, the Japanese were caught in a totally different situation. The Japanese knew that if they capitulated, the time would come where the Americans would eventually leave. If the Russians had occupied Japan, the Japanese knew that they might never leave. This largely mirrors real life as Russian and Japan are still disputing over some of the Northern Islands of Japan since the end of WWII.
