Some ppl use poker chips, or Monopoly $ if you don’t have older AA games
I am refraining from buying the 2nd Edition until I read more reviews on this website.
if you are like me and can’t afford AA50 ($500!!), this is the best option.
I buy every board game with an Axis and Allies logo. But I do like the paper money from HBG alot more than the stock stuff.
Hi Cromwell. I have had it a week and bought it because I do not have the 1st Ed and am still waiting on my 41, prematurely ordered from US when I could have had it from Amazon UK already! I like the map, but after years of 1940 and all the rules changes should be a refreshing change. Might even finish a game!
Have 2 new prospective players and after 2 or 3 games of 41, can offer them this.
@wittman:
Many people play with house rules.
You could even say that there are actually some people who play with the official rules.
I thought I was the only one!

I play atleast 3 games using the official rules, checking the rulebook every step of the way. Just to learn the rules before I even think about house rules
no question 2nd edition, larger map and new pieces, updated rules
Hi Cromwell. Glad you got it. Never got the 1st, but Japan is weaker in this one are they? They look good to go to me, even with the loss of the Carrier and BB on UK1. I started a game, which I will finish next time my friend visits(2 weeks), am hopeful Japan can cause mayhem.
I’ve ordered both from Field Marshal Games and they’re in the mail! I should get them Monday unless UPS delivers on Saturdays. Can’t wait!
