I believe around the year 2004 I purchased two great axis and allies maps created by a gentleman by the name of Ralph Boerke from Waterloo Canada. The maps were laminated and the first one was a 1942 world map. The second one was a Europe only map. Anyways I just found both maps at my parents house. I have played the world map and loved it as Ralph included different rules for his game. The Europe only map is huge! I never played it though :(. Has anyone ever played this A&A Europe map created by Ralph? I know he was working on a pacific map also and wondered if he ever released it?

YES! Im looking at the rules now. But wat Pi**** me off is that i dont have my printer hooked up! :x no gameplay today

Just a few things for your rulebook:
1. For setup shouldnt setup be in the title box?
2. In the Necessary Game Components section the words out of the table are overlapping the table
3. In 2B+2C the words are really small but there is a lot of space
4. In a lot of the Unit Profiles, the words don’t fit on the pageSorry if I’m being nitpicky :mrgreen:
Not Nitpicky at all, It just had a traumatic experience from keynote to powerpoint. I’ll post the new one after dinner

Hey Croesus when will we have the game setup? Are there any optional rules for us players who know how to play?

As soon as microsoft stops trying to assassinate this game

Yes, that is Hailie Selassie, The Ethiopian Leader during this campaign.
“I must still fight on until my tardy allies appear, and if they never come, I say to you without bitterness, the West will perish.”
- Haile Selassie I, Emperor of Ethiopia (speech to the League of Nation, after Italy invaded Ethiopia)

Reinforcements Charts Tomorrow

Nice work Croesus. I cant wait to test it out.
-
Again do you have any NAs?
-
Nice work. Maybe we could combine East Africa Syria/Iraq and El Alamien into a campiagn Such as The Middle Eastern/african campiagn
-
Nice looking rule book Croesus
I will be happy to play test. But will have to by using the forum dicey
-

That is coming, as well as reinforcement charts
@The:
Nice work. Maybe we could combine East Africa Syria/Iraq and El Alamien into a campiagn Such as The Middle Eastern/african campiagn
That might work, but That would
A) Have to be a monstrous game
B) no longer really be express
C) I still love My East Africa campaign and the new proposed game will only be in addition to the gamesHow do you use the dicey, I tried to start a game earlier couldn’t figure it out
-
You type in :dice #d#: The first # is how many dice you want to roll and the second # is how many sides the dice has.

What I meant was that it was like a box set. With three games in it
So you would buy the AAX African/Middle Eastern campiagn box set and they would get:
AAX East Africa
AAX 2nd battle of El Alamien
AAX Operation Exporter -
Like what Sun Tzu is doing with Japanese islands
He could put all island games in a box and it would be a campiagn.
Obviously these would not be sold. Or if they were the would not be called Axis and Allies Express because of copyright reasons
Also is anyone make a game based on Kokoda?
-
I’ve got New Guinea. The map is looking B-E-A-utiful. I’ll post it sometime soon
-
I need to figure out how to play on forum so I can playtest. Who wants to teach me
-
First of all if we are going to play on the forum I need to either:
a) create a battlemap module
or
b) Print out the map and play on real map with own pieces and post moves onlineProblems with a):
1. I need to create the module and so that will take anywhere from a day or 2 to a couple of weeks depending whether or not create the sector info.
Problems with b):
1. I don’t have mech inf, cruisers or tactical bombers because the only edition I own is RevisedAnyway to play by Forum or PBF to use the dicey we roll like this
<colon>aaa x@y a@b etc. <colon>Ie.
Rolls: 4@1 3@2 2@3 1@4; Total Hits: 34@1: (2, 6, 2, 5)3@2: (4, 2, 2)2@3: (5, 3)1@4: (6)NB. No space between Colon and aaa or the last number and colon.</colon></colon>

Remember to put a space between 1@2 and 2@3 etc.
