@CWO-Marc
Great stuff, thank you very much! I added those to the list, alongside with some more snippets of famous speeches.

What I forgot to tell you guys, is that I made the list public so anyone and everyone of you can enjoy it. You can find it on Spotify, it’s a playlist named simply “World War II”. Its cover picture is the most generic photo of a German soldier throwing a hand grenade (got a bit lazy with that one). Any comments about the playlist is welcome and I’m still looking for more songs to add to it!

Hello,

it’s been a while since I last posted to forum, as my “brother-in-arms” is taking on a bit of hiatus from Axis & Allies to build a business. However, we have planned a weekend-long G40 live match somewhere around late April. As I tend to get excited easily I have already started to gather up World War 2 era songs for a Spotify playlist to bring atmosphere. Sure, ready-made lists already exists, but I find them to lean bit too much to American and British music.

I now have some 120 songs spanning almost 7 hours, but as we all know G40 games tend to last lot longer. This is why I kindly ask for your help and expertise to expand my playlist and uncover more songs from the said era!

I have tried to build a balance where every nation participated in the war have at least some representation. As a Finn, I started with Finnish songs and marches, then moved on to the German marches. I haven’t have much luck finding German popular music from the time. I then added a bunch of American and British music. I was also able to track down few Russian and Italian wartime songs. A friend of mine helped me find Japanese marches and pop songs, but I couldn’t resist the urge to throw in some traditional Japanese music also. Edith Piaf is of course ‘a must’. As to much surprise there exists fragments of speeches from Chamblerlain, Churchill, Roosevelt and even Hitler on Spotify, so I added some of those to the mix.

So, I pretty much have American/British, Finnish and German portion covered. This is where you guys come in; help me balance out my playlist. I’m particularly interested in “minor power” songs; Axis satellite states, Poland, Jugoslavia, Norway, Greece and so on. Of course all suggestions are welcome!

Thank you in advance!

@GeneralHandGrenade:

How come you didn’t include a “I don’t give a crap who signs up here as long as they don’t grate my nuts” option? You don’t have to be wolf or a hen to not have an opinion on other members of the community.

I bet that option would get the most votes.

But if you don’t give a crap, then you’re not likely to vote at all 

@Ichabod:

No. IMHO, I think it’s better for the US to spend like 100% against Japan for the first 5-6 rounds. Then spend only the minimal amount for fleet/air to help the UK keep Gibraltar if required. The UK and Russia keep Moscow/Cairo secure while the US pounds Japan. Then once Japan is economically knocked out, then the US switches.

Agreed. Altough sometimes I like to purchase a couple of ships on the Atlantic side, just see if I can lure Germany to buying navy as well.

Now look what you’ve all done. Now we’ll never get our hands on to the VANN FORMULA  :roll:

I don’t feel like there’s anything to apologize for. The large font is mildly irritating when one wishes to quote your text, but that’s it. Most of what you have said here has very good points, and when wrapped in this testosterone fuming style makes it entertaining read. I think people here have been overreacting a bit to this whole thing. We should all take a deep breath here and consider is there really damage done?

@variance:

And I am sorry I called you cuntfungus.Â

Is this somekind of A&A pyramid scheme? 

It’s all so clear now! Last game I bought drones and tactical nukes, my opponent didn’t stand a chance with his WWII-era units 

What, you don’t like cats huh? I’m a bit offended by that.

Ps. Your suggestion sounds kind of… Fruity.
