Have fun gaming !
@eisenhower I have, however I didnāt care for it because it feels more like playing Memoir 44 than A&Aā¦š
@nolimit hey nolimit I love your videos and yeah I watch all the guysā¦ Sireblood, GI Joe, Hambone, and I have definitely thought about a channel but I donāt know if Iām that type of guyā¦ Iām. Not worried about pplā¦ I was military and when I got out I have been a police officerā¦ So ppl donāt make me nervousā¦ But I am not camera friendly lolā¦idkā¦ Maybe I just need to do it and not worryā¦ I see you having fun in your videos and itās awesome. I was close to starting but then backed out lol maybe I will do videos without showing my face like so many othersā¦lol
@eisenhower I have never played itā¦ I would definitely tryā¦ If itās a board game and WW2 related Iād never turn it down lol
@the-plastic-commando love the videos broā¦ I keep thinking about making some myself but canāt seem to make that leapā¦ Iām not a video kinda guy lol
@the-captain Thank I appreciate thatā¦ And your the same captain that makes YouTube videos are you not? If so I am a fan.
@stuka80 Even I donāt show my whole face, always wear sunglasses in front of the camera- for YouTube Wars I donāt really show my mug at All!!!
@stuka80 Think youāre thinking of the Good Captain, I believe the āCaptainā doesnāt have a channel just yet but I highly suggest that he should!!!
@stuka80
:+1:
My YouTube video hasnāt been released yet - itāll be ready by the end of this summer.
So, itās probably another Captainās video :ok_hand:
As a former Army Officer (Captain) I understand your concern about making video on YouTube etc.
We discussed our YouTube Video options in our Axis & Allies Veteran Players Group - and since most of us are former soldiers we agreed to go ahead no matter what.
I hope that youāll post pictures of your game board etc. Many players in this forum have posted great pictures - itās all very inspiring:+1:
@the-captain some food for thought thanksā¦ I was a lowly E-5. I was going for career. It was definitely the place for me. My deployments to my post time I wouldnāt say I enjoyed it all but I wouldnāt change a second of it. And after all that, it was a training jump that took my kneeā¦ Isnāt that the way it goes. But I will always have A&A global lol
@stuka80
Sometimes make believe is better than the real thing. I never thought of that, I guess to be in any branch of the military you have to be fit for physically for service, I guess they couldnāt just give you an office job?
@eisenhower
At least now you can be a general, something few would obtain in real life. I Knew a man in the national guard that was a colonel and then he got promoted to general. I was so excited to actually know a general. He enjoyed my enthusium.
Hello everyone Iām Ricardo Fuentes , iām from Puerto Rico, how good it is to meet you all
Welcomeā¦I love Puerto Rico, a beautiful place. Went there on My honeymoon.
@eisenhower they could have and offered but I was Airborne infantry 11B I didnāt want to take a desk job at 19 turning 20. We donāt make our most educated decisions at that age. But still have a 9 year career with the Army that Iām grateful for.
@stuka80
WOW, you did at least have some adventure.
I would have been too afraid to jump from an airplane.
@eisenhower I recivied my honorable discharge in 2003 so my last just was 2003 before I got outā¦ Just a practice jump. After numerous jumpsā¦ The practice one is the one jump that took my knee. Figures dosent it
Hello. Iām Martin, from Denmark, Europe.
I have been playing A&A classic since 1983, and some other versions later on. At the moment I like the Zombie version a lot, but with our own āMOAR ZOMBIESā version ;) I like that you can choose more or less any strategic target as Axis, and still have a shot at winning, which is not absolutely true in Global40. But I like that one too! ;)
I havenāt played much online, mostly IRL on Fastaval, and in the local Board-gaming club. In SĆønderborg, Denmark.
I also like other boardgames, and I have an account at Boardgamearena with the same nametag.
Iām open to invites! ;)
Welcome Martin!
I was lucky enough to be a part of an introductory party for Zombies for a group of us Seattle gamers. After we played it we got a free signed copy! Wizards of the Coast was extremely nice to us and I was very impressed by them. Hope you enjoy this site!
@stuka80 welcome . And you started playing in 83. Wow! You must have been one of the first to play it . There arenāt many on this forum who have played as long as you.
I discovered it in October 87.
@witt Oh. Actually I got a copy of the Classic game as a parting gift, when I left the ākollegieā in Copenhagen in 83ā¦ EDIT : Must have been spring 84, cause thatās when I moved back to SĆønderborg
