I agree with the shield and sword statement. It is my experience that Germany on its first turn should buy a transport for Italy and all men. Regroup your tanks and all your infantry into Eastern Europe and plan to take Karelia on turn 3 if possible. Turn 2 can work but can be costly. Germany should buy mostly all men on turn two and three as well and move them into Eastern Europr so as to overwhelm Russia and get ahead of their infantry total. Once Germany has more infantry than Russia attack Karelia with men and tanks only, save your planes. From Italy send two full transports every turn into Egypt and Trans Jordan until you secure the Suez and subsiquently Africa. Meanwhile Japan hits China, and India and then all out Russia, while still maintaining suppremacy in the Pacific by staying one step ahead of the US and as someone else mentioned take out as many US and UK ships as possible while not over commiting your fleet and only losing the cheap expendable replaceable pieces. An IC is a good idea if you are sure you can hold it: Manchuria is good to go after Russia, but can be reinforced by Japan transports anyway, FIC is safer but India is the best of both if you can capture and hold it, because it is two squares “a tank blitz” away from Caucauscus and Trans-Jordan and you can move fleet through the Suez if needed and assist Germany in conquering Africa as required. Not to mention taking precious money away from the UK. Japan would then purchase three tanks every round for India (or FIC) and keep that up until Russia falls. From India or FIC you can also launch a strike on Australia and New Zealand to further hurt UK. If UK buys an IC on India, Japan MUST capture it at all costs or UK will get the upper hand and its game over. If Germany and Japan hit fast and hard as a unit first at UK to bankrupt and “stall” them and get the valuable money they need and at US to “stall” them, then maintain that stall on both of them and go all out Russia so as to hit Moscow on the 5th or 6th turn from both sides, the Axis will have an IPC victory easily or if using victory cities (AA50 and new) or complete victory rules they will be on their way to world domination. :-)
Axis and Allies - game types error "Log file is full"
-
Hello all,
at first sorry for my english, because I am from Czech republic. I have problem with my Axis and Allies game. I have played about 65 rounds now and in this time game typing error message something as “LOG file is full” and is impossible to continue with playing game. If I choose Load Game and click on saved game, the game starts as New game (on start). Folder with save games (Autosave and my 1 save) has about 50 MB. Thanky you for help !! thank you very much. -
Not sure what program you are using but trying searching for *.log files in Windows explorer. You should find one dated the last time you didn’t get that message named something that seems like it could be the log file the program is mentioning. Copy it to another location (maybe rename it so the program doesn’t find it by accident) or in case this doesn’t work. Delete it from the orginal location and try using the program again.
That is just a workaround and without any other info a shot in the dark. Does the folder with saved games have any files with .log extensions? The other thing is look for a way in options or tools to change the maximum size of the log file. Again just guessing.

I am using Axis and Allies game from 1998 year (Hasbro Interactive, Inc.). It is same as old desk game. In folder SaveGames are only these files:
AutoSave.hst - 26 263 kB
AutoSave.sav - 130 kB
lukas.hst - 26 524 kB
lukas.sav - 130 kBNo LOG file present in game folder. In the preferences of the game is not any option as “log size limit” or other.

I’m afraid I don’t have any other ideas except maybe the log file is not in the saved games folder but somewhere else. I’m not really familiar with the program I just no that some log files can be deleted without consequence. Maybe someone else has an idea. :|

I think, maybe SAV file is too big :? Has somebody bigger this sav files than me?
