Axis and Allies 1914, Amphibious Assault do enemy ships need to be destroyed

@FranceNeedsMorePower

Yep.

Anyone know where if there is a link to read older newsletters that A&A.org have sent out?
Thanks

One last shot. The role of the neutrals is graciously being played by an old set of WW11 Russian infantry and artillery that I painted black.

Hello All,

Don’t know if you’re interested, but right now at Massdrop you can get A&A 1914 for $54.99 + $10.00 shipping. If enough of us join up, we can get it for $44.99.

Here’s the link: http://dro.ps/axisandallies-1914

Just thought I’d pass it along to you guys, Enjoy!

I’ve always preferred the choice of these three when it comes to transports :

1 - Three Infantry
2 - One Infantry + One Machine
3- Two Machines

Couldn’t pass up the deal. The game is ridiculously overpriced usually. Europe and Pacific 1940 were only around $70 when I got them, but $100? And it’s apparently lacking enough pieces. C’mon! $60 was a good deal though. And free shipping.  :wink:Plus I have been meaning to get it, but couldn’t justify the cost. Here’s hoping for a good game when it gets here in a week. :-)

If Germany sinks the UK fleet move every warship you can (including French) to the SZ off Wales and build a new one. This keeps enough UK units moving into France to stop Paris falling. The CPS simply cannot afford to match you in naval builds and cannot reinforce the western front as quickly as you can. When the enemy offence has ground to a halt build a large tank stack to finish him off.

The UK units in India really need restricting to balance the game; my suggestion is a maximum of 4 units per turn, of which all but one must be infantry.

I once had an idea for a version where hit points were equivalent to firepower, so:

Battleship 4-4-2 (4 hp)
Cruiser 3-3-3 (3 hp)
Destroyers 2-2-2 (2 hp)

Each ships would have the appropriate number of gun turrets, which can be removed when a hit is taken to indicate damage and reduced firepower.

Two hits slows down a BB, one a destroyer.
