A&A Anniversary Edition: Mobilization new units in industrial complex built in the corrent turn.

I found that sending men in the baltic sea in AAE was a faster way to send troops out to the front which it did also i some how took leningrad on 1st turn and he was pissed because men in russia and belorussia had a choice and they had to retreat and keep a few men there. So making a bit of a navy for germany can be profitable if the russian rolls are “5’s”

I was just looking over the new AA50 board image and it occured to me how arbitrary the geography is in this game.

Why is the Belgian Congo in this game at all?

Spain is off limits, even though certainly in the realm of possible history/gameplay Spain could have been a major player or battlefield of WWII; a lot more of a possibility than French Eq Africa or the Belgian Congo which are indeed in play.

Certainly Turkey could have been a significant factor in this alternative universe of a game we call Axis & Allies than ever could have would been French West Africa or Rhodesia.

Yet there they are: Belgian Congo, French West Africa, Rhodesia all open for invasion. Spain and Turkey and others are closed off.

This is so ahistorical, we disagree about countless other nuances and rules about being historically deficient. Yet without Spain and Turkey, we are are not even accorded the ability to play out WWII in ways which could have indeed happened a lot more probable than the invasion of the Belgian Congo and Rhodesia by the Nazi war machine.

Why of all the possibilities of the Axis and Allies timeline/universe are these 2 of the more likely ones that could have happend are indeed shut down?

Where are you from?

I haven’t seen any warping of my boards (yet).

For the records: my box arrived undamaged, although I still have to check the playing pieces.

Well you could just use the 1942 setup for china only (not inculding parts that japan hasé great britian)  tryin to make everyone happy since there is many whiners!

Anyways, i feel that when im japan i just randomly choose anything!  lol but when i go through i continue on long live the zero - yak  (i love the yaks)

Guys, use 7zip!

Seriously, freaking WinRAR!? For what- archiving the album of .mp3s you downloaded from napster over the course of an entire evening with your state-of-the-art, 38880 baud, dial-up modem?

I kid, but seriously: www.7zip.org.

EDIT: If you’re on a mac, use this instead (it’s a 7zip port) www.kekaosx.com/

YOU ARE A SAVIOR!!!

How would the odds fall with 3 subs 1 bomber?

Now that was a depravity line of thinking. Imagine Eisenhower abort D-day 1944 because the odds was not good enough. We would all be speaking german now. If you want to win games, you need to strenghten your fighting spirit and breed more aggression. Peacekeepers dont win wars, you know that, now do you ? Butt enough talk. Now you better gimme a + karma and help me reach the magic 800 before Frog.

good luck with 800, but i’ll support 🙂

or worse, we would be speaking russian!
