If anyone is in the area and interested, I am hosting a game of G40.2 at Family Time Games in Indianapolis on October 8th at 1pm.

I can’t come being in Canada and all, but you should be commended on your efforts to gather strangers for an Axis and Allies game day.
Thanks! One day I will be as successful as you!
This event had to be rescheduled! The date is now November 5th!

Is it ok to notify my YouTube subscribers of this event?
Absolutely!
Chromium, I posted on your meetup group. I’m from Louisville, KY. Going to see if I can come up to your game…if you’d welcome me.
Ichabod
Definitely come up if you can! I responded to some of your concerns on the meet up page!

Will it all be A&A for you, or are you gonna try and get your Rebellion fix?
If there is time, I will do a game of Rebellion :-D
Any reports?
It was a good game! Ichabod came up from Louisville to Indianapolis (about a 2 hour drive). We had 4 players altogether. Axis ended up winning. The game was a little distracting because one of the players thought it’d be a good idea to bring his 3 year old to a 10 hour game of A&A… Other than that, everything was great!
My Schwarzenegger Queso was a big hit as usual :)

Bringing toddlers to an Axis & Allies marathon = EPIC FAIL!

Did you use a bid, or any other house rules for balance to begin the game?
Well… I initially didn’t want to do a bid because two of the players were completely new to G40.2, and I don’t like using non-standard rules with new players. However, Axis had a stunning first turn due to some great dice rolls and sub-optimal play from the UK player. So Ichabod insisted that the Allies get 20 IPCs to make the game more interesting.
Check out this pic from the event. Let this sink in. These tables are just the regular tables for gaming at the game store :)
