Alpha 3.5 vs 2nd edition

[capnstak]

I see alot of the guys on youtube that post global games of axis and allies play with the Alpha 3.5 rules. I have 2nd edition of global. Is there a significant difference between the two or could I use the videos from Alpha 3.5 rules and apply the same way as with 2nd edition?

This is the video I am talking about.

It should work.  The big difference is that the UK has 1 less Infantry in Egypt in 2e, and 2e has the rules about the Soviet-Mongolian defense treaty.
