rehashing something made 30 years ago.Â

This feels like kicking a dead horse, but if we ditch A&A because it was invented 30 years ago, what about chess, poker, backgammon etc

M44 does not give you the large world perspective that AA does, so AA will always have a following.

Thanks coach of many for buying.  However, he did leave me the maps…anyone interested in 2 sets each of AAE40, AAP40 (both 2nd ed.), AA1914, and 1 set of AA42 (2nd ed) and 1 set of AA1941 maps???

The games mentioned are timeless classics with a wealth of strategy.  AA has seemed very linear in strategy for many years now- somehow kill Russia and win as Axis.  Allies stop this from happening and they win.  Unless the game is mechanically or dynamically changed in some form it will become a dinosaur.

True, but I believe M44 gives you more than what you miss in the “broad sweep” of the global conflict.  The tactics, replayability, time commitment, flexibility and the fact that it is seeping with theme all combines for a great experience.  I’ll be honest, when I play M44 over AA I “feel” the tension of the strategy, tactics and theme of being there come together nicely.  In short, to me it just feels more fun!

Don’t need the maps.

[questioneer]

Sorry, that went fast.  HBG bought them for inventory.  Maps are still available.  PM me if interested.  First come, first serve.

Thats fine.  :-) I have been gettin pieces from HBG but they are out of some. I just bought 2 new games cheap. Need about 600 pieces for another G39 game.

Still would buy a used Europe 40 and Pacific 40 games at a reasonal price.
