Hello everyone- it’s great to be here and meet you. I started playing Axis and allies in the 80s with the original board game. Then the online version in the 2000’s, mostly the original classic. I can’t seem to enjoy the other versions as much. If anyone has a recommendation for the newer versions for someone who loved the original, I would appreciate your thoughts as the classic doesn’t look like available to play online. Is the original A&A classic played online anywhere real-time and if so where can I join and play?

Thanks for having me and I look forward to connecting with everyone.

Wow. Thank you all for the warm welcome and advice. I’m super excited to get started!

@barnee , thanks for the link, I checked it out this evening and registered. I will have to try the Anniversary edition.

@Digger I was born in Christchurch but live in the US today and have for a while. I’m planning a vaca back though. Appreciate the take on Anniversary. I’ll prob start with classic to work the rust off and build up to it:)!

@The-Captain I still have the CD! Good stuff. I’ll put Global on the list to play and begin the fun and beatings i’m sure.

@Tin-Can-of-the-Sea exactly I felt the same that Classis lacked naval and you could never accomplish much with Axis. Sounds like Global and Anniversary will be the games to get up to speed on.

@AndrewAAGamer I do play with a bid and recall the same with AAMC… played there a little for some time. I always seemed to end up with about 15 to play Axis - lol. Appreciate the info and I’ll try AA50 first!

Looking forward to seeing everyone around!
