Hi all!
I’m a player in Austin Texas, but return to Providence, Rhode Island for good in the next 2 months.
I got a copy of Axis and Allies 2004 revised edition at a yard scale when I was a kid because the figures looked cool and the setup seemed fun! Finally started playing a bit in my teenage years, and once I moved to Austin in my 20’s started regular playing.
I picked up a copy of 1941 this year, and have been frankly quite underwhelmed so I went looking for other versions online and found this forum!
I play around twice a month, but am looking to play more.
I’m looking to pick up some house rules to play with (very much enjoyed the civ-specific abilities from 2004) and want to acquire some customizations in the next year.
If there’s any Austin players who play G40 I’d be very interested to hop in for a match in the next 2 months, or in Providence for the foreseeable future!

WELCOME @killerfish! I would recommend Revised, AA50 and Global 1940 for some great world view games and D-Day and Guadalcanal for scenario play.

@killerfish

Hi killerfish,

Great to see your enthusiasm:+1:

You should definitely look up the House Rules section - and check out The Captain’s Global 1940 House Rules Collection.

There you’ll find Global 1940 Expansion rules on a scale never seen before:muscle:

Feel free to contact me any time concerning these rules etc.

For inspiration about those rules - please check out the Global 1940 Expansions Game Report Thread.

There you’ll find tons of pictures and Game Reports from Global 1940 & Global 1943 games.

Hello all, Victor Here.
From Overland Park Kansas.
First game of A&A was probably 1981 or 1982.
I have Global 1940 all setup, looking for someone to play.
Have not played a full game yet, I have watched hours of youtube videos on strategy etc.
Played some solitaire games…not the same.
Lol, last year I bought two 4 ft by 8 ft sheets of ply-wood and made 2 giant gaming tables in the basement to play global but my two younger sons took them over to play star wars legions.
Set it up again in extra bed room looking for opponent.
New to A&A.org, looking around to see what is up.
I bought table top simulator on Steam as I saw there was a global game for it. Played around for a little while, the interface is a little clunky.

Hi @veek
Welcome to the site ! i know there’s some KC players on here, I can’t remember who. i think maybe @taamvan ?

Also if you wanna play online you can try triplea. Never tried steam but triplea been around a while and works pretty good.

Where are you from?

I live with my wife and kids near Dayton, Ohio

What Axis & Allies games do you like to play?

Right now we only own the classic game. But recently I’ve learned about some of the other versions and can’t wait to purchase the two 1940 theaters!

How often do you play?

My oldest son and daughter have really caught the bug, it seems, so we play about once a week.

Do you use any customizations (tables, painted pieces) or house rules?

Nothing like that yet, but we’re investigating the various options for house rules. Once we buy and learn the two theaters for 1940, I’d like to purchase a rubber roll-out map that includes the entire globe. I found it on Etsy for around $50.

Thank you for welcoming me to the community!

@perceptio15 Tons of people play in that area, I’m headed to gencon in indianapolis to play G42, and run a league for Global in KC STL CHI! Welcome

[The Captain]

Hi @perceptio15

We started playing Axis & Allies Classic back in the Early 90’s.

We purchased 3 Expansions from Gamers Paradise - for use with Axis & Allies Classic.

At the House Rules section - under Customizations - at this forum, you might want to check out The Captain’s House Rules Collection - especially the Axis & Allies Global 1940 House Rules Expansion.

This Expansion origins back from the Axis & Allies Classic version - and is compatible with all Axis & Allies versions - with some adjustments.

We hope you’ll find tons of Fun & Challenge at this forum.

@flyingbadger Hello,
from Central, PA. I’ve been a gamer for nearly 42 years and still enjoy sitting down to simpler games such as Axis & Allies.
Currently I’ve been developing a Korean War game. Images can be found in the variants forum.

Greetings A&A community. I have been wrangled into the fold here by persistent members who want to print the best looking mats for their game. I create mats on 1/8" thick neoprene rubber, printed in a minimum of 300 dpi resolution. I have made tons of mats for folks from here already, and stock some popular ones that folks keep coming back for. I make mats for tons of games, and that is kinda my business.

I started playing Axis & Allies in 1986, and for a decade it was easily my favorite game. It was what in part led to me getting into the gaming industry, where today I make mats, games, and toys for all of us adult kids. Feel free to reach out to me if you need a mat printed, or some 3d resin prints as well.

Cheers,
Eric

@dishero

there is already an interesting Axis and Allies Korea, i enjoyed watching it

[dishero]

@taamvan I’d be very interested in seeing that game. If you check in the custom game section you can see pics of my game when it was being play tested.
