I only recently got the game, sounds like an interesting experience. Although, there is never force advantage for the air battle stage therefore air units may always be hit fighters with 3-4 and bombers with 2-3 still crazy odds but I found with enough dice in a battle they seem to die in large numbers most battles with large amounts of dice just ends with both sides losing everything.
WAR ROOM has arrived!

YESSSSSS!!!

Oh boy, it’s absolutely beautiful!
Did you bought that table specifically for the game? It fits just too good :)
-
It is STUNNING!!
I’ve ordered several. I received the first game yesterday. It is BEAUTIFUL! The pieces are INCREDIBLE.
Can’t wait to introduce this game to the Axis & Allies Atlanta crew, and then my Norwegian peeps next time I make a trip over there!
On a different note:
If anyone out there wants a league for a game that is even better than Axis & Allies (my favourite game series ever), then War Room is the game to request for TripleA since it should have its own league in the future.The physical games (from the Kickstarter*) are being shipped and delivered across the world as we speak, and the (actual owners’) reviews** are raving.
For the enthusiasts (like myself) they can be ordered online***, but the price may seem steep for some.
Here’s to hoping for a TripleA version of the game over the next year or so, to bring this excellent game to the masses and simplify the finding of game opponents internationally.

I do have to say it looks pretty stunning. Not sure how I feel about the circle map design and feels a bit odd but that could just be that humans aren’t used to seeing that type of map projection. I’m interested in people’s thoughts on the game play and if it starts to draw a significant following.

Nice touch the actual state/war flags instead of the roundels, but the flag of Germany is wrong.:stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

While I can forgive War Room for going with the safe Iron Cross flag for Germany versus the period-accurate flag with the swastikas, the monstrosity they call the Chinese flag is obnoxious. Red star on a yellow field? For the Republic of China? Are you kidding me?

@Midnight_Reaper China would let them put period accurate flags. They are available from Nightingale games.

Then please explain to me how Wizards of the Coast gets period-accurate Republic of China control markers out of the People’s Republic of China? I call shenanigans.

@Midnight_Reaper the original flag was censored out of China. True story. So to bypass further delays in production they were creative.

No! It fits perfectly though! I have setup the game for its’ first round of Global. All of the components are doubly thick. too.
And the game is insane where you try and play your opponent more than the initial setup.

Got mine Saturday. Awesome components.

The Jumbo set has arrived! (Shoe shown for reference)
