@barnee Thank you very much for the kind regards! Yes, as you joked, we Afrikaners are a pretty conservative lot! I am very very fortunate to have such an amazing and beautiful wife. In fact, as it is my birthday, she has pre-ordered me A&A North Africa! Baie lekker!

Hello!
I am TANK78, (Also known as Владимиро in A&A 1942 online). I am from Arlington Texas (GO RANGERS), and have been playing Axis and allies for as long as I can remember. I am only 18, and I am by far the youngest person I (PERSONALLY) know that has even heard of the game, and struggle to find others to play with as a result. I own the Original game, the 1942 2nd edition, 1942 online, Europe and Pacific 1940, and just recently I got 1914, which I have yet to play. My favorite version is G40 which I used to play with house rules (China modernisation, Sweden, Vichy France, alternate turn order, etc. I drew my own roundels for Sweden and drew up my own turn order), but when I bought 1942 online, that has quickly became my favourite because of Larry Harris Gencon 3.0 setup making it the most balanced version I have played. I tend to play allies more than axis. I do not know how often I play, but I have played almost daily for many years, and when I got the online version on steam two months ago, I already have 180 hours on it. I would love to buy modifications and board pieces, but they get really expensive really fast. I look forward to meeting people that share the same sense of personal love for this game that I do! -
@TANK78 Have you played online using Triple A?
Once you can do that, you can play individuals on this site, play by e-mail, or coolest of all, play in the league on this site. -
@gamerman01 I recently downloaded triple A but the interface is a little goofy and I am trying to figure it out right now.
-
WELCOME!
I am curious about your online handle since, to me, it appears Russian yet you said you are from Texas. What does it mean and why did you pick it?
Global 1940 is also my favorite, yet AA50 is a close second.
Welcome and hope to see you in the League!
PS
Very sorry to hear you don’t know any other younger players who play. What a shame. -
@AndrewAAGamer Владимиро (Vladimiro) is the name of one of the characters from a book I am writing that plays Axis and Allies (Or Duce A as it is called in the book)

@TANK78 is “vladamir o” the antangonist or the protaganist ?
-
@TANK78 Nice to meet you! I’m 18 too and definitely understand the whole getting people to play part lol. I’ve found that although it’s not a well known game for our age it definitely isn’t a not well liked once people learn.
-
@TinCanoftheSea Wow didn’t expect to see so many people my age here. Just turned 19 and it’s definitely cool to see young people playing this game.
-
@donutgold Oh yeah for sure, gotta keep this game going for years and years

@barnee My story is told from the perspective of many characters, with the intention to leave it up to the reader on rather they believe characters are “good” or “evil”. One chapter he is the protagonist in another the antagonist, just depends on who is the speaker in each chapter. On an alignment chart, I would say he is something between a Chaotic good and a Chaotic neutral, but take that with a grain of salt because characters are subjective.

@MAG okay. My email is camps0857@gmail.com if that would make easier to contact me.

@TANK78 Thanks for the reply

@TANK78 I have eight chapters of a book with Axis and
Allies as a theme. -
Hi, I am Tom. I just found Axis and Allies. I will be combinging the 1940 Europe and Pacific games on a table to have the entire world. I am thinking of creating an overlay showing the 2023 war situation and maybe have a WW3 version of this game using the map.
I am looking forward to getting tools , printable A&A IPC’s, and editor for editing maps.
I will be playing via email/skype with family members and friends.
I look forward to discussions with you. -
@tomcoll67 welcome!

Hi @tomcoll67
Welcome to the forum - you’ll find everything you need on this forum concerning Axis & Allies.
You’ll find a huge source of inspiration at the House Rules section - look for Axis & Allies Global 1940 House Rules Expansion.
We have also released:
- Global 1943 (a scenario based on Global 1940 that reflects the exact Military, Political & Historical situation in Early 1943).
Based on the Axis & Allies Global 1940 House Rules Expansion we are working on the following expansions:
- Global 1947 (includes weaponry that were produced at the time and weapons that “might have been” for Germany).
- Global 1964 (based on a Cold War scenario where Germany won the War in Central & Eastern Europe).
Those future expansions are not yet completed, and multiple play test games must be completed before any release.
You are most welcome to contact us anytime - especially if you want to try the Axis & Allies Global 1940 House Rules Expansion - which by the way is also playable at TripleA (contact barnee on this forum).
Captain
