I’m a middle aged dad in the Phoenix area who would like some opponents in this game.  I am a total newbie at Axis and Allies Global.  That said, I have played Axis Allies for 30+ years (played World at War in the late 1990s “blind” where we had the Axis in one room, Allies in the other, and a referee determining combat.)  And I’ve watched all of Grasshoppers’ youtube’s so I think I get the picture.  Any opponents appreciated.

I am trying to get a friend of mine interested in this.  He downloaded the A&A game last night.  He is familiarizing himself with the rules.

@Arthur:

Good game!

Yes.  It was.  I want the allies again.  I know what I did wrong in Egypt and Russia.  I am 0-6 but I think I had you in Asia.  You will NOT win the next one.

Does not matter.  Game is over.  I hit Egypt with everything I could and it wasn’t nearly enough.

@Arthur:

You can move them with edits.  Sometimes the the save gets glitched and units cannot move.  Regardless, it won’t matter unless you can get a victory city with the UK.Â

Actually I can’t even move them with the edits.  I’m not going to worry about it.

There is some “bug” in the game.  it is not permitting me to attack Yunan with my airforce in India.  Infact, it won’t let me touch the planes in anyway.  I’ll try to figure something out that is fair.

@Arthur:

Looking grim for Japan.  You have me contained in the Pacific.Â

I was going to have the Americans try for Rome but with less than a 0.01% chance to win, I thought that was ridiculous.

America contributed almost nothing in this game.  BUT!!! there are now in position, to do…. something.  Alas, they will never get that turn.

@Arthur:

It isn’t over till the end of this round.  If you can regain a European VC, you will prolong the match.  I see a couple of opportunities with a slim chance of success.Â

I wish the American fleet was in sea zone 92.  Then I might have a decent shot at Rome.  Alas…
