@nolimit I was one of those idiots that binned my first A&A game too. Didn’t want to piss off my wife with all the new games I had bought ij the 90s.
Hate myself!
I had so many fun evenings in our shared student kitchen playing with it my last year at university.I was in MGM (Mentally Gifted Minors) during high school and one of the coolest things was we got to play a civil war game as part of class. Man that was smokin’ hot!

… you had a lot of extra pieces then
LOL - having bought all the games over the years I have tons of pieces. In fact, just last night, I finally bought a bunch of plastic trays and put the troops in individual slots. Tired of digging around for them when we play. Spent five hours doing it and had to separate some of the pieces because I had mixed up the games and had different colored units and some different sculpts. Really looks organized and cool now. Can’t wait to play it on my new table sized Global Map with my gaming group!

If you want please post a photo…

This is my new map. Got it during COVID and only used it once so far. You may have already seen this map; it is online. I just blew it up so it fits on my dining room table exactly.
Here are some of my new trays, pieces and battle dice.
This is a great website however I must say I can’t wait till I can start playing face to face again. :)

@thrasher1 I saved my Christmas money in 1995 and bought Axis and Allies.
-
Well, yeah… when you are young an Axis and Allies (or Shogun or other Gamemaster game) is actually pretty expensive…
-
@thrasher1 If I remember correctly the 2nd Edition Axis and Allies cost me around 60.00-70.00 dollars. At age 16 that was a lot of Christmas cash.
-
That is a lot of money. Yes, in Netherlands the original Axis and Allies and Shogun both were pretty expensive.
And Fortress America? All we could do was look at the small picture at one of the sides of the Axis and Allies box and imagining what this game was and was about?Remember: these were the pre-Internet years…
