@SuperbattleshipYamato said in Triple A North Africa?:

@AndrewAAGamer

Agreed, I’m worried otherwise Hasbro might sue TripleA for infringing on copyright and being an unlicensed competitor (let’s be honest, TripleA is basically competing with the physical game for time the players spend on Axis and Allies, it’ll probably be competing monetarily if it was more well known). Buying the game will (hopefully maybe) show them that TripleA isn’t a competitor, but a complement. We should reward Larry and the playtesters for developing such a fantastic game if possible.

Hard to sue a platform as TripleA does not come with the games and is used for various other games as well. But since hasbro does not want to make a decent online version of any Axis&Allies game ( the 1 on steam is crap compared to tripleA ) they cant really complain.

TripleA is great for those with little block of time or that lives far from others that play the game, not everybody can leave the board standing there for 3weeks and if you can only play 2 evenings a week for 3 hours the game might take a while

@Jonny5tyle Yes, if there are any units left in the convoy after the first (and subsequent) round(s) of combat two units escape from the convoy.
This also applies when there is still a normal sea/air battle in progress. Every round that this combat lasts two convoy units escape. But as long as the defender still has combat units left, the units in the convoy cannot be taken as casuality.

Hi Everyone

My son and I finished another game of North Africa. We have all of the other A&A games except Anniversary.

North Africa is an absolute blast and we are both liking it. It has different types of units for each country including stats and costs. So its very in depth.

The limited units and balancing supplies makes it feel like a limited theater of war, which it was. There can be back and forth towards the push of Egypt and the mines are just fun!

My son won just in time on turn 14!

I swear I looked through every page and couldn’t find any concrete answer. Thank you for posting the rule

@SlammerIV Infantry will be bought at the end-ish but I think but not as much as other things.

@Witt THANK YOU! I did not realize that. :)

@FranceNeedsMorePower

Then I’ll keep this in mind when I play my first game. I look forward to more!

@CentralCommando @SuperbattleshipYamato Thank you for explaining. I feel they should cost 4 it is more realistic. But for 3 and a 2 or less not bad at all if the opponent has a ton of aircraft. They are also good for defending Malta.

Flanking attacks occur when you area attacking FROM more than 1 territory. The territory with the greatest number of units is the main attack. All other attacks are flanking attacks. For the flanking attacks only any 8, 9 or 10 is rerolled until it rolls something besides an 8, 9 or 10.

@FranceNeedsMorePower

AI is trash when it comes to Axis and Allies. I asked it a few times, it only gives very generic info that’s not really helpful. Still, a specialized AI explicitly tasked with coming up with Axis and Allies strategies and loaded with all the rules and maps could be very helpful (although it doesn’t exist yet).

@johnny5 Yes, they could.

@Driel310 thanks for explaining.
Looks like we were all unlucky , here in Europe, because of a naval transportation problem.
I was almost eating my hands , I was so impatient to receive mine!

@AndrewAAGamer thanks for explaining.

@nishav To further explain, AAA aren’t land defenders when rolling AAA, as there aren’t any defenders yet. The decision to defend or retreat happens after landmines and AAA.

awesome, thanks!

@djensen Hi. Renegade UK still says for preorder. I got excited, was all.
I hope you American and Canadians get yours soon.
