AA is unique to the extent it fits in between light “war games” like the ones these guys like and the real mind buster/hex and counter games. People who want more realism etc go for the latter while lighter players go the former, leaving us who want something in the middle with AA. It’s hard to convince either type to go in for middle when they want something really complicated or easy.

Episode 84
Have you ever dreamed of playing on the big map without the tediousness of not being able to attack your friends and family until late into the evening?
Behold! Axis & Allies Global 1942. Everyone is at war. We scrape through round one in this episode and talk much smack to each other. I got 2 houjrs sleep before the game and had to go right back in for the midnight shift when we finished that day so bear with me folks, my love for this game runs that deep. Enjoy!

Just gotta say love the show! Believe it or not you guys are living the dream. I don’t think most of us here get together for a game as often as you guys do. There’s a ton of podcasts about war games but not an Axis & Allies one. Again, love the show!

Thanks man, that means a lot to us. Last week was the first week we’ve gone without a podcast in almost two years and I apologize, I just haven’t had time to edit the episode. It’s a special one as we have a player who is totally new to the game and we played the 1st edition 42. Should be out this Friday which will take us all the way up to our Remebrance day game. Listen about 5 episodes into that one for sober exploits and then total drunken mayhem after that. There may even be some long distance travelers for that one.
Thanks again for listening and commenting. We could use more feedback.

Yeah no problem. Sometimes I like to sit and crack a beer while I listen. LOL it’s almost like a “virtual” F2F game :-D

Episodes 101 & 102
Ray and I get together to record a game of Global 1942. These are rounds 1 & 2.
-
You should get Ray to make a cards version of '41. As for the banter and BS it’s what makes the show funny. I’ve been listening to all the episodes from the beginning on Podbean though I am subscribed on iTunes. Good show!
-
What’s your guys take on Global 1942? Any good? Better than 1940?
-
oh, and does one side have an advantage?
-
The game we’re playing right now is hard to tell. Italy got a horrible start which doesn’t help but Japan just took India, spoilers for episode 106 lol. Germany was stymied in the Baltic as UK kept taking Denmark but are out now. It’s taken a twist and this is only our second or maybe third go at it. I’d say it’s fairly balanced but we’re not exactly overly analytic types. We really like it though it speeds the game up tremendously and does away with the tedious who’s at war with who junk of G40.

Episode 103
Almost a week ago I put this episode up. Round 3 from Global 1942 set up.

Love the show. Got it on iTunes and Podbean. Have Twitter covered too. Hell I even gave you guys a good review on US iTunes. Keep up the good work!

Thanks man! your reward is Episode 104. It’s still just Ray and I freezing our butts off in the bunker rolling dice and drinking beers. We still haven’t finished that game as it’s been in the minus double digits here and I’ve been working my tail off at work. Hoping to get a new game of Anniversary going this weekend though with elrojo, Ray and I.
