Well I bought some pieces from HBG. Bought more than I needed but thats mostly because I love the ottoman color of troops haha.
Wizard of the coast is sending out additional playing pieces
-
Sent email yesterday, patterned off the previously posted template, reply today from WotC:
Thank you for contacting us, blah blah… “Axis and Allies 1914 does come with the appropriate pieces for game play, as the intent for the game is to be quick and have fierce battles. We are no longer supporting requests for additional pieces”
“If you are missing pieces we will gladly assist you in replacing the missing pieces.”
Followed by a catalogue of pieces for each army (no mention of chips) and a statement that if I have all those, that I’ve got all the pieces needed to play.
“If you have found that you are missing pieces, we can assist you. Please reply to this email with all of the following information for potential replacement purposes.”
Name, address, phone (?), specific pieces
…so, am I eBaying, or am I now “missing” a bunch of chips and various infantry/artillery/etc?
It figures they’d cut it off right as I put my request in… /sigh

That’s some bull$#!+ right there. So the ONE thing that people were applauding about this mess of a game release, their customer service, they are now going back on? C’mon WOTC…
Anyway, make sure to check out http://www.historicalboardgaming.com/Axis-Allies-1914_c_427.html if you want to buy extra pieces without having to go to Ebay.

Thanks Marc.
I always enjoy those vids.
I like so many of the lines, but I particularly liked: I am not buying Europe. They will probably only give Germany 3 Mech Inf! -

Yes, the people who made that video did a great job of coming up with hilarious lines with which many A&A fans can sympathize. One of my favourite parts is the “don’t get me started” inventory of game flaws, capped by a diatribe about the errata sheet rewrites. And I always crack up when he claims that “I even got to play Larry Harris once, and beat him!”

I’m enjoying the new car Wizards of the Coast gave me.

Wasn’t it a Rambler that you got? :?
