  • German scientists having a chance of discovering a mystic artifact every turn which boosts morale (+1 on attacks)……

    :-)

    But seriously. The Aden naval base may have been important IRL, but then Malta should have an airbase, Holland should have a naval base, Sweden should have a lot of fighters and not only infantry, the US and UK should be able to attack simultaniously, Norway should be worth less IPC then Spain, Holland/Belgium/etc, etc, etc, etc.

    ‘the outpost’ is based on true facts? ^^


  • Axis and Allies is not a WW2 simulator. A&A is a boardgame with a WW2 theme. Any cries for lack of realism or lack of historicity, are neither here nor there. The only factors relevant to game design are balance and replayablility.

    Im sure the word you were looking for was, Historical Accuracy, cause im not quite sure what historicity means  :-P

    And of course things cant be 100% accurate to how things were historically, otherwise, the axis would lose every time.



  • If there had to be a historical mistake on the AAE game, I think leaving out the Aden naval base would be the one i’d choose (along with making Sierra Leone neutral… it doesn’t affect the game at all)

    The one I’d choose is have the RN able to survive G1
