@Daaras I’ll have to watch how to set up games as I don’t remember. Once I got playing years ago it was easy

@Daaras I should be able to play fairly consistently on evenings. I’m looking forward to starting. I’m ready today too. Thanks

@Daaras said in Looking for a game of Global40 OOB:

@Jonny5tyle sounds good, want to take a bid of around 50?

50 sounds great. When should we start?

@Daaras I can play either one. I can do the Allies first. I never use the dice calculator and just try and have fun!

@Daaras I would be willing to play G40.

Hi I played TripleA like 4 years ago and I’d like to get back into it. I have the phsyical board game but rarley get to play it.

I’d need someone to host and possibly reteach me how it works. I do have TripleA already but just can’t recall how we played by email or fourm.

thanks
Jon

@Daaras Hi. I’m really new and haven’t played on TripleA in 4 plus years. I played like 3 games.

Do you know how to set up a game to play? Maybe we start with something simple like World War II Europle 2nd Edition?

@Witt So do the two units escape after each round of combat? In other words, the planes roll their dice and after the round of combat two units escape just like in a navy battle?

Hi Everyone

My son and I finished another game of North Africa. We have all of the other A&A games except Anniversary.

North Africa is an absolute blast and we are both liking it. It has different types of units for each country including stats and costs. So its very in depth.

The limited units and balancing supplies makes it feel like a limited theater of war, which it was. There can be back and forth towards the push of Egypt and the mines are just fun!

My son won just in time on turn 14!

Hi

Can airplanes attack conveys of an opponent that doesn’t have anything to defend with? For example, can an American bomber attack a German convey with only infantry and tanks?

@Matt-Hyra thank you for the response and its pretty cool to get it straight from the lead designer!

I just listend to your interivew on Board Game Nation and you actually answered it there so I was just a bit early in my question. It makes sense that a plane finding a small scout car in the middle of desert would be diffcult. You mentioned that would be the case in the interveiw when you visited Morocco and traveled in the Sahara Desert.

My 13-year-old son and I play Axis and Allies and we have all the board games for A&A, except Anniversary. I’ll get that one eventually. We are loving North Africa A&A, so far. It’s really dynamic. Please keep the A&A theater campaigns coming!

Side note, my grandfather fought on the US side in North Africa and Italy.

Can air units attack scout cars in the Sahara Desert?!bolded text

@stough hello! Sorry I’ve been gone for so long. Computer issues and I finally got a new computer so I’m back! Do you want to finish this game or create a new one?
