Ground vs. air

A50 is the best game out there as much as I love global.  Everything about the game is great.  1942.2 is good, but can’t even come close to A50 and has problems with the set up as the axis can easily overwhelm the allies within the first few turns.  They have come up with new rules and set ups to make the game more balance which is great but it still can’t compare to A50.  A50 like I said hands down for me is the best all around axis and allies game. 👍

You guys are awesome…what a difference a rule makes.

Game plays a bit differently does it?  :lol:

Re: How to know when to buy air as GermanyI remember one game I won as the axis I used the sub push tactic and built nothing but subs Germany had like 7 subs and 3 bombers for support and wiped out the English navy in the 1942 edition and japan had closed in on Russia and scared the Americans with 9 subs out of the pacific so it was a great game for the axis

What I used to do, as a high school girl, was to use a white chip under the control marker to signify it made it past the end of the chart once.

Now a days, I use a mapping utility even for face to face games.  No limit on pieces, on chips or on money!  (Also it’s set up instantly and you don’t have to put it away when you’re too drunk to see straight!)

Which one should I buy and what is the difference in the 2? Is Iron Blitz a release to fix bugs and be a better game, or is it just and expansion to include ‘marines’ & ‘destroyers’ etc.?

Appearantly you can’t buy Iron Blitz anymore, but you can still get the original A&A just about anywhere fairly cheap.

thanks for the help!
