Hi Bob - and welcome.

This is the right forum to find like-minded Axis & Allies players.

As a retired Army Veteran myself (still working in civilian life though) we spend much time playing Axis & Allies Global 1940.

You should check out the House Rules Section - look for Axis & Allies Global 1940 House Rules Expansion.

For this version to play online - please contact barnee on this forum.

Hello all,

My name is Lazar, I live in toronto. I’m 23 years old and I’ve been playing A&A since I was a little kid. My dad owned the original 80s version of the game and he got me hooked on it from a young age. Nowadays I’m in love with the global 1940 game, I spend many a day strategizing and playing against myself in TripleA, with the occasional in person session when my friends find time.

I’d love to find out a way to get involved with in-person events and/or tournaments and I figured the forums would be a great place to look for that so I finally decided to make an account.

Excited to meet many new friendly faces and roll some dice with yall!

WELCOME!!

Understand the love of Axis and Allies. I feel the same way!!!

Hopefully, you can find more people to play with face to face here.

Hi Everyone,

My name is Kyle and I’m originally from the US but live in Germany now for over 10 years. I used to play frequently in the US and after watching the Gen Con. World Championship video from BGN on YouTube, I’d like to get back into playing. I’m currently most familiar with the 1942 anniversary version but I’d love to try others.

I’m willing to travel inside Europe for a good game and a few brews. :-)

Cheers!

Hello there, I’m Nuts, for general Anthony Mcaullife’s famous words when asked to surrender In the battle of Bastogne. I play G40 and used to frequently play anniversary.

Hi Kyle,

You should come to Denmark this spring for the Axis & Allies Northern Europe Wiking-Con event. The event lasts 3 days (2 nights).

At each Wiking-Con event we serve food, drinks etc. to all players - for free naturally, since many players have travel-costs to get to Denmark.

In other words - the only costs you have to pay is the trip to Denmark - everything else is paid by us: Danish Axis & Allies Association

That’s awesome. :)

Reminds me when buddy shot a goat in Alaska. Asked the guys how much to process it. They said just buy us some beer. He said no way. You guys can drink a lot of beer lol

He just said “I got a knife. I know how to cut meat” lol Called me and a couple buddies over and we hacked it up lol

Yea crocket, you should go. Make for a great video :)

Hello, I am CentralCommando, and I am a Axis and Allies fanatic.
My top three A&A games are:
Europe 1940 2nd Edition (1)
Axis and Allies Revised 2004 (2, don’t judge me.)
Axis and Allies Classic 1982 (3)

I hope this forum has a great future!

This year’s trips are ww2 museum for 80th anniversary of dday AND Gencon August 1-4. Maybe next year!

Hello all. I feel kinda awkward doing this so don’t judge me (at least not openly).

I live in Richmond, VA in the US. I’m somewhat of a history nerd/buff, I guess. I definitely wouldn’t say I’m an expert by any stretch of the imagination but I do enjoy reading books and articles about military history, equipment, and weapons. I’m still in High School - homeschooled, actually.

I was introduced to A&A 1941 some time ago by a friend (I believe I was 11?) and I absolutely loved it. As soon as I got home I ordered a copy for myself and tried playing with my family (they weren’t interested. shocker). For the most part, I actually have played against myself, meaning that I play as both the Allies and the Axis. However, I do occasionally play with the friend who first introduced me to the game in the first place. I’ve also had some success in persuading others to play with me.

As of late, though, I’ve been playing A&A 1940 Global, which I absolutely adore. I don’t add too many house rules except that I have tried combining the UK European and Pacific economies. I haven’t played a full game with that rule implemented, though, so I don’t know how balanced it is.

Anyways, Hola, mi amigos y amigas.

@CentralCommando
WELCOME!

Those are all good games you mention. I have played them all to death when they first came out though they are now sitting on the shelf as the newer games are here. AA50 and Global 1940 2nd Edition are both awesome.

Hi @haddon-granillo welcome to the site :)

@The-Captain and Company have a House Rule that uses a single UK economy. It limits how much you can spend on the Pacific board to maintain balance. It is explained here https://www.axisandallies.org/forums/topic/36945/axis-allies-global-1940-house-rules-expansion

Since it sounds as if you are having some difficulty finding opponents, you may want to try online play using triplea https://www.axisandallies.org/forums/topic/17147/gargantua-s-k-i-s-s-triplea-instructions?page=1

Enjoy gaming :)

@barnee Thank you very much! I appreciate the info.

Hi everyone!
So glad I found this site last week! I started playing Axis and Allies with the original Pacific from 2001. Loved the game since I first played but really got interested when g40 came out. Recently I’ve been playing bm3 on tripleA with my roommate which has been a blast. Our only house rule so far has been that attacking true neutrals is illegal because it seems unbalanced to us if for example the US owned Spain.

Currently my roommate and I have a very strange game going where he’s (axis) taken Calcutta, Moscow, and all of China while I (allies) have taken all of Africa and Western Europe (W. Ger, Norway, Denmark, N. Italy, S. Italy, and all of France). We’re 16 turns in and I’ve got about 1500 TUV to his 1000 and I’m ahead in production by about 30 but he doesn’t want to concede.

I’m trying to improve my gameplay and strategy and have greatly enjoyed reading these forums, especially the “Allied Playbook” essays and the warfare prinicples by AndrewAAGamer. I’d appreciate if anyone could link me any other “must read” articles!

Would love to play face to face in the Seattle area!

i go by ZAR most of the time,
I play G40 and 1942 mostly and mostly online except when Consimworld is on in Tempe AZ

I am organizing a G$0 BM tournament next month so sign up and play

@zarhunter Welcome to the neighborhood! Props to you for trying to put together a tournament!

@PGsquig Not sure if anyone has responded but you are in the hotbed of highly skilled players. There and across the border into San Fran and over the other in BC.

The game sounds like it is yours to lose. So don’t. Solid play and just stack the rocks on his chest. Protect your supply lines. That’s the big danger–a sudden loss of a huge navy that gives him breathing room.

Welcome to the neighborhood.
