Axis and Allies Pacific è un grande gioco e, nella mia opinione, un membro sottostimato della famiglia di giochi A&A. Io ho giocato molte partite ad A&A Pacific contro giocatori che reputo alcuni dei migliori giocatori nel mondo (senza alcun ordine particolare Tordenskjold, El Ravager, KittenofChaos, AndrewAAGamer ed Andycool) ma sembra che l’interesse per il gioco stia svanendo.

Don Rae, in his Article #1 concerning correct purchasing in Classic, comes out strongly in favor of purchasing infantry in large numbers, primarily because of its defensive value relative to tanks (the only other land unit in Classic).

8 infantry: Purchasing 8 infantry is pretty useless for Russia’s second turn’s offense. Although infantry produced at Caucasus can potentially be of offensive use, it is usually far more useful to bulk infantry at West Russia.
First there were the rumors , next was the official announcement , today we have a sample of the box art for the upcoming Axs & Allies Guadalcanal board game. This image was discovered by Imperious Leader and was recently posted in the forums .
