You know, it’s OK to disagree with someone. You don’t need to insult them in the process.

@The-Captain

Hi Captain

Am adding the SP AA unit. I see it is available at Game start but the SPA not until Early 42. Was curious the reasoning on that.

Thanks

@CentralCommando said in (Probably) All versions of Axis and Allies are Imbalanced (yes, even Anniversary):

or if I’m lonely. It’s almost always better to play with other people when you can

Only time I play solo is when I have no one to play with :)

@Karl7

Interesting. I have yet to play N AF but I know you are a experienced A&A player.

Lets ask the creator @Matt-Hyra what are your thoughts ?

@CentralCommando

Hi CentralC

Yep solo play is a good for some stuff. I think one of the best ways is to use the online version of triplea if possible, which most games are, to some degree of accuracy.

You can set it to “LowLuck” to hard crunch battles when testing. That and just the time factor that allows so much more testing than using a physical board.

And yea solo play is how I used to do it for years until some fellow gamers decided to join my preferred game, which I didn’t create, just modded for triplea :)

@The_Good_Captain

heh heh I had a half dozen or more AH games as a young teenager. Started with Tactics Two lol

But Russian campaign we played the most. I think Germany only won 2 or 3 times out of 30 games or so but you got the fun of kicking ass early on, especially with the Stukas, until those Russian Guards started showing up every turn lol

@The_Good_Captain

Hi Captain

My opinion is the balance is dependent on experience/skill level. Using the G 40 game as an example, the best most experienced players have proven Axis to have the advantage in an OOB game.

However, with novice players, the game is much less one sided. Bidding is a proven an effective way to adjust the game if it begins to favor one side more than the other.

Also think that certain levels of play could hardwire in certain changes as another alternative. Could be the addition of extra units for certain players at certain game rounds. Additional income etc …

Similar to the old Avalon Hill “Russian Campaign” where they had “What If” scenarios. Although putting the Bulge on the Russians with 2 extra Panzer divisions didn’t really make a big difference even as historically accurate as it was :)

At any rate, more options to the original games are what I’d like to see. There is a “Commanders” option/addition that has recently come out that is supposed to be used in all AA games.

This sounds a Great idea but I have basically no experience with it and haven’t seen a lot of feedback from it.

Enjoy your stuff. Keep up the Good work :)

Edit
Different Victory conditions is another way to adjust the game. The main thing is to try and leave multiple options to win, so there is not just one preferred strategy.

Easier said than done :)

@KraytKing

Hi Kray

Here’s a triplea game that uses weather. Might give you some ideas

https://forums.triplea-game.org/topic/146/total-world-war-tww-2-7-7-2?page=1

Pretty bad in the last couple hours. Can’t really use it. All my other sites working normal

@CentralCommando @SeaYa

I’ve thought the same as SeeYa take over for a certain battle and have it play out Call of Duty mode but you do your overall startegy move at the beginning of turn A&A style :)

Would be pretty sweet. I’m sure there’s a bunch of ways you could play off it as SeeYa says :)

@Solo_Sapper @Inissor

Welcome to the site. The Captain will reply as well but you can find the rules to the Global 40 mod here https://www.axisandallies.org/forums/topic/37535/the-captain-s-global-1940-house-rules-collection

You can also play/learn the mod online with triplea, which allows one more time to get familiar with it https://www.axisandallies.org/forums/topic/36998/global-1940-and-1943-expansion-for-use-with-triplea

If you’re looking for an expanded version of G 40, You will most likely enjoy this :)

Keep adding new digital options. Don’t really need to even know the rules then

That way they and there new AI friends can play together

@CentralCommando

yea pretty slim.

Only reason I brought it up is because ANZC took it in the Capatain’s mod, it’s worth a buck there and UK had to fall back to India leaving the Flying Tiger in Burma by itself. Rest of China already conquered.

Would give it some temporary safe haven.

It was more of just was it originally Chinese to begin with. The way Shantung and Kiangsu are. Seems no reason it shouldn’t be.

Obviously it’s not gonna change :)

Could move the Ftr there then if Allied controlled
