Industries?
how does industries work? can UK put troops on australia from turn 1? both troops and ships?
are there any limitations how many troops that can be put on another industri? ( in other words, non capital city, in this case australia instead of london) -
RE: Are the FAQ updates needed?
@Private:
The UK can only build one unit per turn in India. If Japan focuses west it can often get an early opportunity on India. That factory then contributes to capturing the Caucasus.
how many can they build in australia each turn?
this was news for me, is it mentioned in the rulebook? -

Simular PC games as A&A?
Hi! beside the boardgame I sometimes like to play axis & allies the pc game (Harbro, releases 1988).
is there any other simular games that someone knows about and can recomend?I like civilisation but its sometimes too much discussions and focus on small things such as ironmaking, writing etc.
I prefer games played in turns, not as starcraft for example when everyone plays at the same time
what other games can you recomend?

Problems play A&A videgame (1998)
I installed the game on laptop with win10, the games starts incredible fast and the flags are moving so fast in the wind I can almost not see the animation… but after 10-15 minutes, the game slows down more and more so I cannot barely not scroll the map or see the animations of exloding units… what can be wrong?
is starts perfectly fine and then slows down so I have to restart every 15 minutes.
and I�m not sure of you guys, but for me it takes more than 15 min to beat the axis so I have to restart quite many times… Smileyhas this occured to anyone else and what can I do to solve this?
many thanks in advance -

Small questions
Hi everyone!
Some small questions appeared yesterday…
1:can a battle ship bombard landtroops?
2:can ships pass between ireland & nothern island? it seems to be a small passage there…
3 how do you know where it is allowed to out ships you build? For Russia, can they only put their ships in the north? Germany- can they put new built ships in the meditaranian?
4: in sea battle, is it correct the transports only can be destroyed when there is nothing else to “put behind the casualty zone” in other words transport will always be killed last?
5: you who creates a bigger map: do you use the map from A&A 1940 for example or do you actually create a new bigger map and print artwork? any pictures to show as example? :)
6: is a destroyer needed to attack a sub only when there is a plane attacking? or can any naval unit attack a sub without the presence of a destroyer?
7: does subs attack with surprise attack in every round?? I thought it was only before the battle in other words only 1 time…
8: in south amierca, can all ships pass through the canal or only the side that controls the country (is it mexico?)thanks for helping :)

RE: Advice needed - contents of the box enough?
I think 1941 is good game for us newbies to wargames. I too find it hard to find people to play with and this game takes about 3-4 hours for me to play.
It offers enough challenge and tactical choices, even though I agree the map is too small

RE: Beginners Questions
@P@nther:
The fighter can only land on territories that were friendly at the beginning of the turn. Also keep in mind that a territory can only be captured by land units.
HTH :-)
thanks!
some questions came up:
1:can seaunits attack air units?
2:if I attack with 2 tanks and 2 infantry and the defender has the exact same units:both my tanks fire and miss, now the defenders tanks fire but misses, my infantry fires but misses, the defenders infantry rolls a “one” and makes a hit, can the defende choose to destroy one of my tanks even though he has already fighted his part of the battle? (Am I doing the combat wrong?)

Beginners Questions
Hi!
Just bought the game and Love it!
Some questions though…1: gameorder: does sovjet buy units, then germany then uk etc or does Sovjet buy units, make cpmbat move, normal move, collect money and THEN it is is germanys turn?
2: can seaunits attack land and it’s units? (for ex 1 sub + battleship attack 2 infantry?)
3: if an island has no troops (ex hawaii or philipn islands) and a enemy sea-unit enters the space - will that space be conquered and the sea-unit will take over the IPC value?
4: can a transport ship enter a new coastal space and offload units in the same turn?
5: victory condition: allies must for ex hold berlin/tokyo in the end of japans turn to win the game. when is this? when japan has finished collecting income or when usa has done that?
6: a fighter/bomber must have enough movement points to land, can they land on a space they just defeated in battle? ex my bomber flies from norway to ukraine, fights and win the battle - can he then land in ukraine?I think the game was quite easy to start playing, but the sea units and their movement/combat is a little bit tricky.
thanks in advance for helping me out, will probably play again tomorrow!
