Axis and Allies Acronyms Commonly Used
-
It’s only established for a few players, like the folks on this forum. However, newer players are not familiar with it.
Some terms are pretty much established with the A&A community, I’d say, like KGF, OOB, etc., since their use started with Classic.
For newer players it is also better to use the US Navy system because if they know any system then that would most likely be it.
And I’m not a US citizen so I don’t really mind whether the Army or the Navy rules :) -
My hope is to have a source where someone reading the boards would see something they don’t know what it means check here and go back to reading. I’m not trying to standardize the lang. at all

Thank you Hobbes for your help and the list is updated.

All those Acronyms are spot on. They are the most common ways to make notation of games easier.

What’s a NO?

What’s a NO?
National Objective.
By the way, there’s another acronyms thread over here:

List updated

What’s a NO?
It means buy her aNOther drink.

What’s a NO?
It means buy her aNOther drink.
I thought “maybe” was “buy me another drink”

Maybe could a moderator please put this thread as sticky? Thank you

-
this one is in player help the other one is in the wrong place.

Thanks IL. I think the other one was in a specific game subforum it wasn’t easy to find but Yavid’s seems more complete. Maybe we could just compile all info on one of them.

When I did my list I started with the info on the other list. Aside from the stuff in there that’s short-hand I should have it all already.

For the record, “SS” for submarine is fine because it means ‘Sub-Surface.’ (Served aboard SSN 772 for 4.5 years)
‘SSN’ = Sub-Surface Nuclear -
another one I hit on:
DOW - Declaration of war
I recommend someone to update the acronym list. Additionally, it would be more convenient to have only one ACL (:-D acronym list) and not two or more threads, which you have to read through, when you are searching for an abbreviation. JLuna1273’s exel-sheet for finding players is a good example for to set up an acronym list.
-
I added DOW, What else do you see needs updating? and Where do I find this other list you’re speaking of?
-
I do not mean a second list but two threads to search in. When I was searching for DOW I screened both threads, just to find out that no one knows. I would have been easier, to peruse only one list. No offending, I appreciate the work you have done, its just that two threads are a little bit distracting. An updated list at the very beginning in a thread which is indicated as “relevant and complete” would be most helpful.
