:-D
In the movie; Battle of the Bulge, there is a scene where the german generals are discussing this story about the chocolate cake, still very fresh, ( I think they may have actually eaten it) and saying if the Americans have ample resources to spend on shipping cake to their soldiers then we are lost. Something to that effect anyway.
Another story, off topic, sorta, is that some bomber crews were talking about all the different kinds of ordanance that we were dropping on germany, and one crewman said, “We’ve dropped everything but the kitchen sink!” So on the next mission, you guessed it, they brought along a kitchen sink and threw it out one of the side gun windows during Bombs Away! :roll:
Rockets have a firing range of 3 or 4?

@panther That’s why I’m asking, because page 33 of the 2004 guide (revised) then doesn’t say that if you look at the image and the text next to the image.

@Panther Please move this topic to the correct forum.

@krieghund I rewrote it in the correct section.I thought that was the way to do it. I hadn’t noticed that Panther was a moderator. I’m going to delete this topic in a few hours, the time to make sure not to be rude to him, because I replied to one of his messages by putting the image of the map.

P Panther moved this topic from Axis & Allies Anniversary Edition on

@panther @Krieghund
I took this PDF from the official A&A site and it really says 20th anniversary (https://axisallies.com/rule-books/).Just to avoid confusion: The site axisallies.com is far from being official - how do you come to think it is?
“This site is put together by a quad of Axis & Allies game players…” as is stated on their homepage. However they provide rulebooks.@largowin said in Rockets have a firing range of 3 or 4?:
@krieghund I rewrote it in the correct section.
No, sorry, you re-posted in the Classic-Section, which addresses the 1984 MB game (see my statement above). I have deleted that posting to avoid further confusion.

Please don’t delete anything. I have moved the entire topic to the correct category in the meantime.
Maybe you are interested in the Wikipedia article about Axis&Allies, that will give you a good overview about the different versions and their appearance in history:

This error has been covered in the official Revised-FAQ/Errata:
“Pages 33-34, A Sample Turn: Replace all text and diagrams referring to the antiaircraft gun in Russia with an antiaircraft gun in Caucasus.”

@panther Hello.
I was sure this was the official site for the game since they managed to get the .com domain name. Normally, any company can take this name, even from another person who registered it before them, to show that it is their trade name. I guess naming a game shouldn’t be more complicated than that. That’s why with their title saying “Revised (20th Anniversary)”, I concluded that I had the very latest version of the rules. Is the best place to find the latest version of the rules on BGG?
And for the details on their site, I admit that I did not look too much, because English is not easy for me (I can normally understand it if I read a document, but it always requires an effort from me to read in English - and I have tu use Google translate to write here).
I came to question myself on this rules, because I decided to translate in French the booklets of 3 version of A&A which I have and to download them on the site of BGG, because I would like to replay them in the next few months with my nephew (I already played there more than 30 years ago and I liked it) and to have a French version of the rules to support my game.
Sorry again for not posting in the right forum. But since it said 1984-2004 in the subtitle and I had the 2004 rules, I automatically thought it was there
And, thx a lot for all! -
@largowin You do have the latest version of the rules, for this game. There are, of course, later A&A games, the latest rules for which (those still in print anyway) can be found on Renegade Game Studios’ Axis & Allies page. Which versions do you have?

You are welcome. Feel free to continue asking as you need it. It is just that we need to clearly figure out which of the games is addressed. As rules differ significantly the answers differ significantly, too.

@krieghund I have 2004 Version , like you or Panther said
This is the version I have in my box and I need to translate the exact same rulebook to put it on the BGG website.Thanks for the link to the latest rules. If I understand correctly, can I use these rules with my 2004 version of the game?
I will translate these rules when I have finished translating those for the Europe version and 1941

No, use the ones you already have. The rules I provided the link for are for newer games.
