Units

[Brallervaerk]

Hi Folks,

I’m new to the world of Axis and Allies, and just my first version (spring 1942). I noticed that the number of units are different from country to country (ie UK only has 2 aircraft carriers; the others have 4. Russia has 10 tanks; the others have 8) - is that how it’s supposed to be, or is something wrong with the game I bought?

Hope you can clarify this.

Thanks in advance…

I believe the number of units is based off the possibility for building that type of unit, although 2 carriers for UK sounds like too few. Russia having less tanks also sounds strange.

You can get a list of the unit pieces that you are supposed to receive with the game here:

The distribution of the different pieces varies between countries. Example, UK, Germany and Russia are supposed to have 2 carriers each, and 4 for both Japan and the US.

But some boxes came short out of pieces, so if you are missing something from the list contact consumer support and ask for them.

Hey guys,
