Dear all,

This posting…

https://www.axisandallies.org/forums/topic/37609/new-ah-game-perhaps-a-40th-anniversary-legacy-edition

New AH game - perhaps a 40th anniversary Legacy edition?

… introduced me to the concept of ‘Legacy Games’. I must admit this was almost totally new for me. Did some readings about Risk Legacy.

Now let me ask you:

Could an Legacy Edition of Axis and Allies work?

Of course I would buy it. But I seriously doubt if this could be a good concept for Axis and Allies. It might.

What are your ideas?
Espcially if you have played some of the Legacy games then please post your views on Axis and Allies Legacy here.

@thrasher1 Best I can come up with is something that starts at Napoleonic Wars (or even further back).

Then based on winner of that you get an alternate setup for Crimean War for your next game.

Then you get an alternate WW1, alternate Interwar Period, alternate WW2, etc. Seems like you’d run out of possibilities eventually though.

@domanmacgee Thanks for your idea, Don.

But such a game (series of games) would be huge. And at the very least you would need new plastic playing pieces for each new era / time period…

@jim010

@barnee said in How much complexity do you want in your Axis games?:

I prefer a base game with a lot of optional rules or scenarios or both.

yea, so the base game would acomplish what Roger prefers and the optional rules and scenarios would be for people who want a more in depth game.

It does both.

I have tried to make a complete overview of the stock count for every Axis & Allies game (33 to my count)…

Please correct me if there are any mistakes :)

I have not included various expansions, just the factory made stock.

Back to the 80s/90s: Why no OFFICIAL expansion pack for Axis and Allies Classic?

@nolimit Really looking forward to play Classic Axis and Allies game with these expansions. Keep you updated.

And to all:

What would you have liked to be included in such an official expansion back then? (Had Hasbro/MB released one.)

In roughly which rounds your WWII games end?

Thats a pretty general question, and I assume the answer varies depending on which WWII board game you are playing. I personally can’t speak regarding other games (Global War 1936, War Room, Triumph and Tradgedy)… I can only speak about my experience with various versions of axis and allies.
Most of the axis and allies variant games I played this year lasted very long (7 or more full rounds) and were fought to a stalemate, with the axis player eventually conceding that they were going to lose in the long-run.
The original classic A&A, revised A&A, and A&A europe 1940 2nd edition often seem to boil down to this: If axis powers take moscow, the game is pretty much over. If the allies conquer either Berlin or Tokyo, the game is pretty much over. Its rarely necessary to continue once either of those conditions is met, because the income bonus and momentum is hard to overcome.
I would say that most games I play end in less than 10 rounds.

AAZ with one of these 'older games'?

I hope this is the correct place to ask this.

Did anyone try to play one of these older games (as discussed in this forum) with AAZ?

So say Axis and Allies D-Day (one of my favourites BTW) with AAZ?

thrasher,

Global or Anniversary for better 6 player game?

42 is closer to even balance out OOB, and debatably a little quicker. It may be worth looking at that for the first game and try the more unique(compared standard games) 1941 scenario after.

@Karl7:

@CWO:

@Narvik:

Pacific 2001 was the first game with convoy zones, naval bases and air bases, and my favorite, the CAP, Combat Air Patrol, the current scrambling is by far not that good.

Another novel feature of the original Pacific game was that it came with two types of American infantry units (regular infantry and Marines, represented by one sculpt model in two different shades of green) and two American fighter units represented by two different sculpts (though their cost and characteristics in the rules were identical).

And don’t forget the sheer number of bright red toys you got to play with as Japan!

Or that crazy J1 turn where you had to try to get in as many attacks in as possible while your opponents were defending at 1.

Ahhhh, the memories….

Also, don’t forget the unique victory condition. Could result in real cliffhanger games–the US bombing Japan trying to claw back the VC points while Japan tries to hold on/capture India.
