Axis and Allies Miniatures: North Africa 1939-1943

Damn I haven’t played mini’s in months, I’m going to have to put a game together.  New mini’s coming out is great news though…

DF, you should try playing online with us.  Mot has adapted the game to Mapview and it works great!  You are also not limited by the pieces you actually own – you can build an army with any pieces you want, provided they are in the Sets Mot currently supports – Set I and Set II.  I’ve played two games so far, and it’s been a blast.

I’d like to, but it doesn’t work for me.  I’ve played in the past and it gets in the way of work.  I don’t like to be on the computer at home after I’ve been on all day at work.  So I end up playing at work and not getting my work done.

I’m afraid I’ll have to stick to maps and pieces.  I think I may take some pics of my collection this weekend and post them…

How accurately are the release dates for these sets? For instance, I play other collectible games too, but the release dates are usually pushed back a couple of weeks or so.

Finaly a transport that can carry two soldiers, unfortunately it’s realy weak.

and another M3, it’s a nice looking mini, but it’s another M3…

US M3
US M3 Lee
UK M3 Grant
UK M3 Stuart
SU M3 Lee

I believe there are only 6 Shermans so far so they better make a tan one for Africa…

weak AND slow – you might as well call it the “Death Trap” 'cause any troops caught in that sucker will be deep-sixed quick.  Heck, if it’s loaded with TWO troops, why WOULDN’T you go out of your way to kill it?

@Motdc:

You guys are missing the point.  Its only 4 points.  You can drop and Inf AND an Artilllery off in turn 1 and you pay for itself.

It makes the 88 playable.

Umm, Mot, the 88 is a GERMAN unit!!! :lol:

(but otherwise, I see your point. :wink:)

Rangers move in to hex containing 88 and capture it

I found this on the internet

Very cool new options. I hope this gives the game a re-birth in my area. The only place I get to play AAM is here on this forum. Don’t worry, even if I do find some new friends to play with in real life, I’ll always save time for at least one PBEM game here with you all :-o

If you are ever in Florida, Cobalt, you can look me and Mateo up.  We’re always hankering for some FTF action.

Sweet the half track motorcycle.  I can make up a saving private ryan senario

Wow I missed this post the first time around.  But WOW :-o :-o :-o :-o :-o :-o :-o
This is right up my alley.  Can you imagine rolling up with 2 Flamethrowers on this unit and for 4 bucks.  The americans will be invincible.  I wanna use this combo to take me out a Vet king Tiger :evil:

Great idea.  Map would probably have a ton of town hexes and bridges.  Super cool 8-)

Does anyone have the stats and SA’s for units?
