I’m very interested in these!

Anyone got any more?

Hey everybody.

I just wanted to let my fellow A&A fans and any would-be writers out there about my RPG forum I’ve got.

It takes place JUST as the Japanese bomb Pearl Harbor, and people play as officers in either the American, Commonwealth, or Japanese navy and armies and command flotillas, units, and air wings. Beside that, they develop their characters as the war continues, not to mention, and in stride with Axis and Allies, it does not follow the traditional branch of history – but rather events unfold as the commanders feel.

What if the Japanese won at Midway?

What if the Americans never invaded Guadalcanal and instead took back the Philippines in 1942?

Here’s the site, check it out. Thanks!

I guess how one treats his soldier is irrelevant?

Patton was nearly court martialed for slapping a crying soldier in the face. I think that puts him front and center for " Worst World War II General " ever.

I think the most overrated leader is definitely Montgomery.

Nobody liked him, not even Churchill. He considered Operation Market Garden, as noted in his after battle reports to be a " moderate success. "

When are you going to give us a price?

I’d like to order a set pleeease.

Hi everybody, I’m a brand new member to A&A.org and a brand new player to Axis & Allies the board game.

I recently purchased Axis & Allies: Pacific 1940 and played my very first game last night. I have a few questions.

Let me give a little bit of background on my game. I was Japan, my two other players were the United States/China, and Great Britain/ANZAC. I started out and built up my fleet a little and reinforced my coastal holdings in China and waged war there. Bad dice rolls for two straight turns left China in a stalemate, but on the second turn I declared war on the Allies and took Hong Kong and started an advance toward Calcutta.

I took the Phillipines, Borneo and Celebes, but I paid very little attention to the United States as I hoped to finish off India and China relatively quickly. China became a stalemate, as the protected Burma Road turned China into a haven for artillery, but I started to encircle the northern and northwestern provinces with fast attacking and fast moving Mechanized Infantry. China was now in a pocket.

The United States, even around turn four was still just massing ships in Pearl Harbor, and ANZAC was doing very little. The war turned sour when the British troops reached Hong Kong, and a British battle fleet effectively ended my reign there. I didn’t have enough time to get the Japanese troops deep in Chinese territory back to the coast, and they pushed me back up to Jehol.

At about this time the United States started a huge campaign of island hopping, taking the islands of Iwo Jima, Guam, the Phillipines, Borneo, Celebes, et cetera. Where is the Japanese fleet you say? Beneath the waves thanks to British bombers.

Perhaps it was because it was my first game, but I just feel there are so many fronts and I’m unsure which front to fight first!

Please help.

Thanks!
