  @thethedew I don’t own the game, but I think the main point of it is that it is not WW2 based. This way the game has appeal to people who aren’t that interested in WW2.

  Let us know what you think after you’ve played a couple of games.

  I appreciate the compliment!
  If the Axis doesn’t have a sizable 1-2 punch (Italy, then Germany before the UK can land reinforcements), then it might not be worth attacking Cairo.
  I’ll leave the real strategy advice to others.

  In fact for the moment we still love the AA42 2d Edition for many reasons like the interception rules that is officially this way :

  Both the attacking bombers and fighter escorts, if any, fire with an attack value of 1.
  For each “1” rolled, a defending interceptor is immediately removed as a casualty. The surviving defending interceptors then fire with a defense value of 2.
  For each result of “2” or less, the attacker chooses a casualty and removes it.
  After the air battle is complete, or if there were no defending fighter interceptors, surviving fighter escorts are considered to be
  retreated. They don’t participate in the actual bombing raid, are not subject to antiaircraft fire, and will remain in the territory
  until the Noncombat Move phase. Any surviving attacking bombers carry out the bombing raid as described above.

  Plus we ask the defending factory to pay directly in IPCs the bombing (max twice the value of the territory) like in the old versions!

  Fast & Fun!

  @taamvan

  Agreed for the most part. I will add to those who haven’t played the game that the full effects of the Joe income advantage don’t come into play until the 5th or 6th round, so Cobra have around half of the game to try to eke out a victory.

  @Krieghund Thank you for the swift reply. I don’t think that thought crossed my opponent’s mind (we usually play Global, so the idea of attacking Germany…and leaving oneself open to counterattack…is not on the radar).

  Zombies is a different game.

  @Glamorboy A big load of subs can definitely be useful, and if you aren’t trying to protect transports at all, it is a good option. True, one carrier and 2 fighters loses to 5 subs. Typically though, your navy will be much more expensive than $34 and the fighters are also relevant on land. Also, subs are not good at defense while fighters defense kings.

  When I play against friends who are new, I just give them a bid. If they win, their bid goes down and if they lose, their bid goes up. I never spend money on both coasts as US because I feel like I can never get anything going at all and it seems like all the money is wasted. Also, I think it is more helpful to use viable, typical strategies against new players so that they know what to expect. I have learned a lot more about the game through losing than I ever have by winning.

  @SeaYa Thank you, I guess I just didn’t know why it mattered. It seemed like declaring war should just be automatic. And I am also wondering what reasons would Germany and Russia not attack each other. I am aware of the history of early ww2, but what is the strategy and why would Russia and Germany not go to war. I mean for Russia it seems obvious because they need to build up defence, but in the past when I’ve played Germany, I’ve quickly attacked Russia while their weak and I have more forces than them. I’ve just never played this war and don’t really get why waiting would be advantageous for Germany.

  @Rescue55-joe I believe the “10 IPCs for each country” that you are referring to are actually the National Control Markers, which are used to track both conquered territories and national production levels. As barnee pointed out, IPCs are not physically provided, and the Rulebook instructs us to track them on paper, but any proxy (such as Monopoly money) will do. See page 7 of the Rulebook for details on both National Control Markers and IPCs.

  In a nutshell, the National Production Track is used to chart your “income” using a National Control Marker. and every turn the “money” goes into your “bank account”, which is represented by IPCs, where it can be spent on new units (or saved for later).

  I hope this helps.

  Hi Darth,

  Yea - those Expansions brought tons of fun & challenge.

  Since then, we have developed the Axis & Allies Global 1940 House Rules Expansion - inspired by and based on those Expansions.

  You can find the Axis & Allies Global 1940 House Rules Expansion on this forum - and as you read your way through these Expansion rules you’ll recall all the good memories from the early 90’s - and much more.

  Hi all,

  Searched the League Rules and Acronym posts, but am unable to find a few abbreviations, ** or AQ’s as they’re known in the Navy :-P ** that are used in the TripleA game posts such as:

  L24 & L25 (rules/map variants?)
  LTR (shorthand for LHTR? Reference to bomber tech on/off?)

  Thanks!

  @SuperbattleshipYamato

  April 1, 1945, marks the 80th anniversary of the beginning of the Battle of Okinawa. The contest over this island was one of the largest ground battles of the Pacific War, with hundreds of thousands of American troops involved. Widely considered the last stepping stone to the planned invasion of the Japanese home islands, the Japanese responded with a large number of kamikaze attacks and the doomed final voyage of the Yamato against one of the largest Allied fleets ever assembled. In the end, the heavily outnumbered Japanese lost, with both sides accruing nearly 200,000 casualties combined and over 100,000 dead (most of which Japanese).

  The battle would outlast the end of the war in Europe, leading some to call it the final major battle of the war.
