bamboozled  :-(

never!

on a side note,why do trannies have a defense of 1?

My main question though, how different do you think the game would be if transports had no defense value?

seriously, i think the game would be alot different.

I think that there arent enough territories, the way i see it is that if there were more territories there would be more variety in outcomes in battles, for instance if there was like 10 territories on the russia-germany battlefront, there is a good chance that in “dice-roll” wise there will be amazing victories and amazing defeats, thereby allowing players to have the need to capitalize on certain situations and chane up the strategy.

But lo, axis and allies is made for the general “consumer” who likes to have fun, and we, the ones who study moves and do complicated math, are most likely the minority. so that is why i (truly) think the game is pretty bland to us but fun to others.’

All and all, i the answer is simple enough… when you get to a certain point, the game is just not complicated enough.

me and my friends recently started a game of a&a, we quckly quit shortly after, realizing there was noo point to it. Since we figuered that everyone did the same moves always and if they failed to do this then the other side would do their moves and win. We found that since everyone has to do the same thing or lose, there is no variety to the game. :| has anyone else encountered this?

lol, yeah they got owned, and the people playing them were like……“man this game sucks!”

the first time i played we thought that it was every country for themselves, i would always pick america and DOMINATE Canada HARD!!!
(i felt like such a badass 8-))

@opengeno:

Commissar_Adam,
Up until that last post, I though you were you still just were making an “excellent use of sarcasm”

man opengeno, your so easy 8-)

Whatever, i give up.

I KNOW! i wasnt looking for iron chefs!!!….i was looking for that IRON: Axis and Allies series, what is the name for it again??? (i may have seached for the wrong thing) :?

@Jule:

Oh, I live in Austria.

how does it feel to be worth 3IPCs……my territory is worth the most :-D

@Imperious:

LOL! That is either excellent use of sarcasm or simply your not understanding that its an IDEA

Uhhh, i dont know what the big joke is, i actually could not find it on Amazon. Is there a special website or magazine to order from? :?

PS: Do YOU know how much it is???

dude, i dont know what rules you are lookin at but subs werent known for their “anti-aircraft” prowess :|

plus, it lowers the germans’ morale

ahhhhh…. to the untrained eye :wink:
but what if russia DID build a battleship turn 1,
then germany’s plan would be foiled  :|

and you also dont count on russa “suiciding” its planes into germany’s fleet, (its a pretty much a standard move in my games)
@ncscswitch:

Adam,

Germany spent all existing IPC’s with the AC build, Germany can focus on Russia, trying to build enough ships to get past safeguarding UK from the trannies in that same fleet…

Yeah but what you dont realize is that all this time RUSSIA has been building all land units too!!!, you cant assume that they’ve been buying all “bombers and battleships”  :?

I dont believe it has gone on sale yet, I even looked at Amazon and they dont have it :-(
but I’ll wait to see how much it is before i buy it.

How about this;

On americas turn they build transports……
then japan and germany be in for it  :-o

How well does the transport strategy follow through, do you ever successfully invade england, or is it a bluff to make them dig-in and u then just transport to Leningrad???

or maybe….Invade Alaska!
which will actually do something. :-o

how is this thread still going???

invade britain turn 2……that’ll stop it 8-)
