@lkb2k Hi! Merged 2 into -Lkb#2721.

Hi guys, first post. I did try searching but didn’t come up with anything but apologize if this has been covered before!

I play regularly with a couple buddies and we’ll often team up as either the Allies or Axis and play the AI. The AI has a couple odd quirks that we don’t get. Just curious if anyone had any input on this.

When the AI is running the US it almost never defends the East Coast and the Capital! If you invade Alaska as Japan the AI will stack 40 units on the West Coast and leave nothing or very little on the East Coast. So you just roll through Canada and walk in. It does this consistently.

It often doesn’t make much effort to retake a captured Capital. We see this when the AI runs Germany often. It will have plenty of units available to retake Germany, but it doesn’t commit everything.

I mean, we know it’s AI, but there are humans involved in the programming somewhere. These seem like major glitches that have been in place for a long time now.

@Naqataro Sure, I saw that. I’ve asked the team to look into this issue. Will get back to you when they reply.

@JuliusBorisovBeamdog Thank you!

@Naqataro If you still want the game removed, please message me your Commander Name, ID, and the game title.

Not sure I have any other suggestion for you, considering you’ve tried the AppData deletion already.

Does the problem still persist? Maybe it was a short outage/server lag 5 hours ago.

@Boston_NWO said in 1942 2nd Edition (Steam) Genco Harris version:

{snip}
Just based on status, infantry are by far the most broken unit in the game. This has been the case in every version of Axis and Allies but the unit is so common that many people don’t appreciate the brokenness in plain sight.

Don Rae was singing their praises in the 1990s to anyone who would listen: Don’s Axis and Allies Strategic Essays.

While the advice contained within was tailored to the old, Milton Bradley, version of A&A, the Infantry Push and Dead Zone mechanics are still as effective today as they were 25+ years ago.
