I also thought of that. I think that’s a good idea.
Most Balanced axis and allies?

I like playing with 42.2 rules as well. I wonder what the next epoch of A&A games will be!
I should also note that Europe 1940SE is a great stand alone game, that often isn’t measured on it’s own. OOB if you’re beginner to moderate, you’ll have a great time.

I thought Anniversary 42 was Axis advantage, possibly a bit more than 41.
The version of 1942 that came out right after Revised was pretty close to balanced without a bid. Newer versions seem to be advantage Axis.
Garg is right about Europe (if he’s referring to the new one) being pretty close to balanced too. I’ve never used a bid in that one.
-
in your opinion what is the most balanced axis and allies with no bids?
Without Stalin and Hitler :-)
-
Definitely Anniversary Edition 1942 for most balanced.
Our group never bids and it seems to work well, no matter which year we start with but 1942 seems the “most” balanced.
-
the Balanced Mod is pretty close, if not slightly pro-allied. But big improvement over G40 OOB, where bids are now easily 20+.
I’d say the best in terms of “balance” was the oldie: Pacific 2001. Take out the India crush, and it really was a tight, tight game.
1942 2nd is way pro-Axis IMO. Just start strat bombing Russia and lights out!

Ah hell yeah! I miss the RED Japanese pieces in the original Axis and Allies Pacific, and that game was a damn good one.
-
IMHOÂ Axis and Allies Anniversary 1942, with NO’s, out of the box, was one of the best games for balance.
Not to break into a strategic discussion, but I wondered if using the Russian bomber into SZ13 on the Germany tpt & DD was worth the gambit. Big risk, big reward. Russia can go on w/o the bomber….

Original Pacific is the best looking set in my opinion. Pretty good game too.
-
Havent played it many times but I like Europe 1940 2E with a very modest Axis bid

I can agree with you here. I still use the naval markers to this day, what awesome pieces!

AAP was the most balanced game with milton bradley coming in 2nd. I did like the hellcats sculpt and the fleet markers, but the red Japanese bugged me and the map was too small.
