    • RE: Introduce or Re-Introduce Yourself (Nov. 2018)

      Hello everyone,

      A&A super geek here. I’ve played A&A since I was 12 years and 2 days old, starting as Russia in Classic on Friday December 11th, 1998.

      My 17 month younger brother is also an A&A-addict, and we were both blessed to have another ardent A&A-player and addict under the same roof for years, providing the easy access to hundreds and hundreds of games.

      I own at least one copy of every A&A version ever published, including reprints and 2nd Editions. Wife shakes her head at my closet.

      I’m originally from Kristiansand, Norway, but I’ve lived in Atlanta, GA of the glorious U.S. of A. since 2013.

      I’m the facilitator for the MeetUp Group called Axis & Allies Atlanta, and we host a lot of tabletop games. We have several huge enthusiasts here that have dedicated entire spaces of their house to A&A, so we’ve fortunate to enjoy a lot of good gaming.

      Looking forward to any game put out by Larry Harris.

      Global 1940 is my favourite, with Anniversary Edition as number 2. Classic and Old Europe are nostalgic favourites.

      @Karl7
      I will take that challenge, if it hasn’t been filled yet.

      I too am VERY slowly dipping my feet into the waters for the first time in years… G40 is what I know best, but can consider BM.

      @gamerman01 Are we talking Classic Classic, as in the OG, or G40 Classic? Lol

      I played Classic this summer against the buddies that introduced me to A&A almost 30 years ago while in Norway, and it was a very nostalgic walk down memory lane.

      First league game back in a decade (?) ends with a spanking.

      OBB L2026, Arathorn Allies +23 vs Karl7 Axis

      Well you only got a 23 bid. I don’t know what you expected.

      I was just looking at some of the games from 2013-2014, and it was down to +11 for Allies back then.

      How times have changed.

      @Karl7

      I’ve been staring at this map and I don’t think there’s a way to prevent an Axis victory over the next couple of rounds.

      I wanted to see if patience, positioning and “theatre shifts” could alter the course, but the economic power of the Axis can’t be stopped.

      Well played. I think I’ll concede here. I’ll post the result.
