Thank you for the tank song LordFoul.

@gamerman01:

I tried to tell you all.  Before I’d ever played the game one time….

But xzorn, you guys would have been so much better off buying planes and mech infantry!  :lol: (sarcasm)

Planes can’t reach everywhere anymore.  The only other ground unit that can move 2 is mech, and it attacks at 1 and artillery can’t keep up.  The only other ground unit that attacks above a 1 is artillery, and it plods along at one territory per round.

Of course tanks are king, and are worth 6 IPC’s…  Can’t believe it was even a discussion.  :-P

Ditto, gamer. 8-)

@xzorn:

A major sticking point among my friends in playing Axis and Allies is the wait time between turns.

What about having a combined purchase phase for all players?
And use markers for each IC (like fleet markers) to position purchases awaiting placement.

That is what I mean though. For me I try and defend the Burma Road because it gives you that extra bonus. And if the Japanese player is smart, he will wait till turn 3 so he can wrap up China pretty much by the time the UK can try and send troops to help.

Well, the reason why I would like it a little bit better than decent is so that tech tree 1 is actually worth using. It takes a lot to convince people away from heavy bombers, jet fighters and LRA.
