I thought for Spring42’ 2nd edition, the bid goes to the allies? I’m confused here.
Attention All Axis and Allies Fans!
-
The thing I hate is all the negative publicity and complaints about Axis & Allies….
For example 1942 - OMG it doesn’t come with paper IPC’s!!! (Never mind that it comes with the best A&A Pieces ever, hundreds of them, and oh yeah… it is $20. For example, Monopoly is 14.99… 1 board, like 40 pieces, and money.)
Or Pacific - OMG it doesn’t come with enough Tac Bombers, the battlestrip is wrong blah blah (CALL Wotc, FREE Tac Bombers and Battlestrip… duh!)
They’ll ship you tac bombers for free?

Finnman - I mentioned that (see bold above)

Finnman,
If you bought A&A Pacific 1940 and contact Wizards of the Coast, they will send you 6 free Japanese tactical bombers and a new battlestrip

Good work!

Done on Barnes and Noble.
4/5 Stars. Had to be honest, lack of paper IPCs and tech rolls makes the game meh. :cry:

Good and thanks

Thanks very much!!

amazon.ca is covered now here is my review:
This game, in my opinion is the best update of the classic game I’ve ever played. If you are a fan of the game from the 80’s and were thinking of getting back into it this is the version you should be buying. The setup is quick and easy, the rules updates are not confusing and the game play is fantastic for 2-5 players. If you like quick games or long games there are options for both as the Victory City rule can be 9-12, 9 for those who like the quick games 12 for those who like to KNOW who dominates the world. If you remember the days of old and would like to get back into WWII war gaming this is the game for you. You will not be disappointed! -
Great!

I did Amazon and Barnes & Noble reviews.

I agree that if we can get a lot more involved, it will only be good for our game.
I was going to write a “dummies for AA 1942”, because i am a new player and struggled with the manual. I think if you are experienced, and look a the manual, you will say “its fine”. But the first time around, (and 2nd and 3rd), it does not tie in everything. I think the missing ingredient is a 'simulation" or a demo of moves. So a progressive demo, so to speak woudl do the trick. My wife says i have to fix things around the house before i go writing instruction manuals, so i guess i will leave that task to soemone else.
Anyhow, i have 2 games under my belt…am i really qualifited to advise others? maybe on how to lose !

I think you should write it and i can make a sticky for others and you might give the review you made a link to it so those players can learn the system using this site as a information portal for these games.
