Question on the Second Edition Rule Book

My name is Emiel Lieffering,
I am planning on hosting a tournament for Axis and Allies 1940 Europe 2nd Edition through TripleA. Anybody could enter and we will host it in a discord server. We will play for fun and the games will be played in teams of 2 players. You could join this tournament as a team or be matched with another player.
If you are interested you can add me on discord (Emielson#2198) or send me an e-mail at LiefferingEmiel@gmail.com

Hi stever7804 and welcome.
You are right: it  is beginning of the game.
Means Japan can only make a Major IC on Korea. Not on any Chinese territory, even the ones they begin the game with, as these territories are still Chinese.
It also means the US cannot capture Norway and build a Major one there.
It is better for balance.
Hope that is what you meant.

Italy taking London?! Now I’m intrigued!  That sounds crazy awesome.  Have no idea how it could work.  A risky move, no doubt. Like letting Italy clean up Paris after Germany does the dirty work.  I’m a big fan of non traditional strategies.

That’s good. Did they buy them as collectibles I wonder.
I am happy if my friend gets to play more A&A, because of me.

If you haven’t found it yet, go to HistoricalBoardGaming.com (sponsor of AAA.org!).

They have copies.

Thank you very much!

just found it a bit odd that USSR got 9 ipc every turn and GE lost one of the bonuses of holding Europe…

but i guess i just need to play the A2 setup a bit more ^^

Unless you are trying to sneak through panama or the suez…

Thanks Krieghund
