@BobbaRossa Some pre comp gaming would be good for me. I have been playing AA 1940 for a while with a few friends. I came to this show about 10 years ago. I played the original AA and found out that we were interpreting some rules of the game wrong and learned some great moves that we had not contemplated prior. Though I’m a good player, I’m hoping to get more envolved with local playing groups to play more offen and to learn.
Do people still play global?

Another possibility, if you don’t like bids, is to allow some units to be moved before play begins. Maybe each player rolls one die to determine how many units he can move (1 turn’s movement allowance - not a combat move - just repositioning) after the board is set up, but before play begins.

I never get bored playing A&A Global, because I only play 3 table games per month, and I never play online. Excitement for any A&A version can get saturated if you’ve got 4 click and go games going at once.
I used to love poker, but I killed that passion by playing way to much online…. With A&A, I prefer rolling dice with my own hand, and interacting with different people face to face… That’s what keeps this game fun in my opinion.

Axis and Allies burns you out. It’s a very interesting game and so ANY version of the game is AWSM! When it’s new, then after you grasp the best strategies it gets boring.
Global is so huge that the process took longer, but it’s still getting boring to me as well. I usually stop playing it for few months then I get back into it.
I enjoy more tabletop games like Twilight Imperium (Although I’d change few things)

I play every weekend on the table top when we get bored with the latest Alpha we’ll change it up and do any one of the different versions, original OOB from the first release to Oztea’s 41 set up, theres also games like fortress America….or the old classic. I dont think I’ll ever get bored with the games.
