That book could include the rules for every edition printed, and a special 25 page atlas for Global 1940.

Don’t forget simple side tips for every board game

yep that would be cool, and History of the pieces (WITH PICS) color sculpts and other stuff.

I’m sure there would be room for a profile of this site and its founder  :wink:

Of course!

@LHoffman:

Sometimes it can be hard watching the parody videos because, while I don’t speak it fluently by any means, I know a good bit of German and it is distracting to read subtitles for language that very obviously means something else. I have to make a concerted and constant effort to tune out my mind translating.

I have the same problem.  To me, the Hitler rant videos that work best, and that allow me to disregard most easily the actual meaning of the German dialogue, are the ones in which the writers of the fake subtitles pay close attention to Bruno Ganz’s performance of each line (his tone of voice, his gestures, his emphasis of particular words, his motivation) and come up with clever subtitles which genuinely give the impression that this is what he’s actually saying and which form a coherent, plausible narrative.  Ganz goes through quite a range of emotions in that clip, and a good parody dialogue will likewise shift in tone as the clip progresses to reflect this accurately.  I think the “Hitler rants about the new Axis and Allies game” video is particularly good in this regard, with my favourite part probably being the line about the errata page.

Not any plans to make them at the moment. Personally, I think those are mediocre games, they’d have to change them significantly to make them computer games.

I do only two crazy things:
1. When a capital is about to be taken (like Germany itself) I sing about it when it survives repetitive onslaught. “Berlin! How you do it, how you do it! BERLIN!”
2. I roll the dice with the highest number on it. (Like if something lands on a 6, i’ll use that die, statistically it shouldn’t be a 6 for that roll)

Too bad I can’t do that on dicey! (How much I loathe dicey errr…)

I once wore one of my helmets, (my spanish civil war helmet “Taco”) it gives you a headache, thus ruining your concentration.
