I can specify, what i was doing:
Settings Apple-ID/Profile Registration&Security Sign in with Apple Axis&Allies App Hide my E-Mail > manage Settings Axis&Allies App disable „Forword to (your e-mail)“Then A&A worked again.
So, should we do an Axis & Allies 1942 Online Early Access tournament?
I’m thinking the tournament would be 16 players/teams in a Compass format. In that format, everybody plays 5 games and you end up with 8 ranked winners.

Ill enter this
Need teammate , How will you adjust for 3 players? I guess every 3rd game Ill be allies and play Russia
I’m currently 41-6 in games with 5 loses due to me getting a quitter who ruined his position.
I guess for 2 first games, a team can play as Axis and Allies, but what will happen with the 3rd game (if we consider that we need 2 wins from 3 matches to progress, and after the first 2 matches the score is 1:1)? Should we … use an online tool to define who will be which side in the 3rd game?
The way compass works is that when you lose you go to the bracket that says L13 or L19. You could potentially lose all 5 games.
I think I miss counted, I think it’s actually 4 games each.
Do you mean that only game is played at first? Who defines what side is taken then?
@JuliusBorisovBeamdog Usually for online play, this is taken care of with a bid.
For this, I guess it would have to be random.
Here’s what I’m thinking for the rules:
Or maybe it should be victory, 12 rounds, or 3 weeks max?
Maybe we should keep it simple: as you can do in 3 weeks or at least 12 rounds if you go over the time “limit.”
If it takes longer than 4 weeks, then the organizer (me) will step in to find out what’s going on and make a ruling.
Regarding prizes, I’m thinking that I need to come up with 16 options and folks chose their favorite in ranked order. If you’re the overall winner and all you want is a sticker, then you get the sticker and somebody else can choose the bigger prize.
What is “+2 VC victory”?
I agree with @aardvarkpepper that there should be more than just one game, and players should play as Allies and Axis. This is why I asked about a 3-match stage.

Could you not use a swiss format with a top 4 cut?
@aardvarkpepper That sounds pretty bad: not only getting only 2 VCs is not a problem, that actually doesn’t finish the A&A 1942 Online game.
@Slip-Capone Yeah, that might be easier to manage.
@djensen im in.
Only problem is that the Axis have a fairly large advantage in the long game. The rules variations make this worse. I’ve done alot of experimenting (40 more games) and without implementing bidding or tournament rules of some sort, the Axis are the team to beat.
