Well I added Italy to my set so am using the Anniversary Edition '42 setup in which Japan goes first - but the Anniversary Edition setup still has the British units there by India. Guess I’ll just leave it alone.
Deciding who's who
-
In a two player game, what’s your way of deciding who will be the Axis and who will be the Allies?
-
It’s usually not an issue, otherwise high roll picks.
-
I let the other guy choose, unless I want to try something new with a specific faction.
-
one of us calls… allies are Even, axis are Odd, or vice versa… and the other rolls the di, and gets what he rolls
-
I take all the chips from each respective country put them face down and mix them up. Then randomly pick em. If you got 2 players then the first to get axis or allied power plays that power. However, when you got 5 people you keep going till all tokens are done and you have your random teams.
Of course if 2 of you want to switch really bad and others don’t care then it .
-
If it’s a 1 vs 1, we can usually just decide between the two of us. For a 5 player game, I’ll mix up the cards with the country unit setup on it, turn them face down, and everyone picks one.

start a new topic for each of the players (if they’re a&a.org members) and ask them to post what they want and don’t want in a country, and that can determine what nations you should play as
