Axis = When 1 falls, the other 2 follow?

They may reprint it again, preserving all the errors and the illogicially ordered setup charts.

Comp for WW1 is $350-600 now.

@Timtheconquerer:

Wow $110? I know soo many people who would love to get the Anniversary Edition, but can’t find them anywhere, and when they do, it’s more than the $225 I’m asking. They personally just do not want to pay that much for ANY game. Where are they for sale at? I know Avalon has not re released any yet.

On Amazon, it’s about $600

The main Problem is, the game isn’t fun for every player, if you can only win as allies by almoust complete neglection of Japan. The Japanese Player will have a poor gaming experience. On the other hand, you won’t win the war in the pacific.
I recently invested loads of Russian troops, a UK factory in India and the US heavy into the pacific (1941 scenario) and didn’t come close to a win in the pacific and lost to europe. Eventough the Japanese player made a major mistake and i got lucky when he attackt some groundforces with mainly planes. The best I could achieve was a stall with Japan earning somewhat 50 IPC a turn (playing with NO).
While Germany on the other hand was playing extremely conservative, but finally crushed the USSR (rolling really good dice), so the US Invasion froce stationed in the atlantic.

Whats missing in this game?
I guess a industrial complex in India to start with could slow the japanese advance, while still saveing IPC for UK (doesn’t have to build one). This would make the game more challanging for the Japanese Player (otherwise there is no opponent on the continent) and gives the UK player more action on the pacific side of the board, while still able to build up some fleet to fight the Germans/Italians.

Hey everyone,

If you’re reading this, then I assume, like me, you love a good game of axis and allies. Throughout the many games I have played with my friends the one thing that was always the worst about playing was having to be the banker, and the banking system in general.  Its very time consuming, takes up more space, and is a messy way to keep track of income.  A while ago I wrote a program that does all the purchasing and income for the game, specifically the 50th anniversary edition, and me and my friends found it to be a great edition to playing.  The program works by having you enter in what you are going to purchase, and then the territories you capture on your turn, and based off this information keeps track of purchases throughout the game and each countries income.  It also automatically does bonuses and calculates in technology benefits. (if you’d like to give the program a try you can download it at: http://sites.google.com/site/dkat106inc/axis-and-allies-banker )  After using this program for some time I have decided to write a newer version of it and currently need help debugging some of the errors that are bound to occur in different situations.  If anyone would like to give a hand please email me at dkat106@charter.net, it would be greatly appreciated.  Also all suggestions of features to be added are greatly appreciated.  Thank you in advance!

These answers are correct.

Wow… I remember when this poll came out.

I believe the Italians don’t own that territory because by that point in the war Britian had already re-claimed it.
