Maybe its punishment for past misdeeds by FMG? Hopefully those days are done with their partnership with IWNGU.
Anyways, hooray for Gold, Silver, Bronze 2016 patrons!
Poll: What A&A Games do you play?
-
I started playing 2nd Ed. probably in 2000 or so, when I could find someone to play with. Then I got a copy of Europe, and loved playing it. One of my friends had picked up a copy of Revised and we had a session and I couldn’t go back to 2nd Edition so I picked up a copy and have since played the crap out of it. I eventually got a copy of Pacific and have only played 2 or 3 games of it and didn’t really care for it. Somewhere along the line I got a copy of D-Day and love it for quick games. I bought anniversary on day one and only recently have switched over to playing Pacific 1940, which is great now that we have sorted most of the wrinkles out.
So mainly I play A&A50 and A&AP40. I am looking forward to Europe 1940 and the World Game of 1940 when that comes out.
-
yo!!!
-
AAA50th - if it was an option… like Europe a lot.
-
I would have to put global if this poll was taken today. As it is I choose Revised. I still think revised is great and a good game to start new players on.
-
I play revised, miniatures, and Guadalcanal.
-
Second edition, with other rules sprinkled in.
-
both :lol:
-
why isnt A&A 1940 world an option, definetly the one i play most!

The poll was created in 2006. It reflects the games which existed at that time.
-
really wants a Axis and Allies game wich includes Canada as a totally independant nation!!

Hi,
Try Global War 1939. Canada has its own IPC to spend ( as are South Africa, FEC and Anzac ). All buys/movements/battles etc are done during the British/Commonwealth turn.

I voted in this poll SIX years ago…
Revised edition…
-
Weren’t you still in nappies six years ago Garg?
-
LOL.
More like trying to prove I wasn’t the father. ;)
-
Don’t even know what that means. Thank God.
We were all young once. And drunk most of the time. -
Any chance the poll answer selections could be updated? Apparently, my most played game is Revised and I know for a fact I haven’t played that for about 7 years lol
-
Well, I don’t play anything that’s listed in the poll. Obviously as pointed out earlier that this is outdated since it was made it 2006.
I play Axis and Allies 1942 1st Edition on Gametableonline, and I do have 1942 and 1941 boards for home games. (Though I don’t get to play very often.)
I cannot wait for Global 1940 2nd Edition to come out; when I do get it I’ll probably end up playing against myself just so I can play it immediately! :lol:
-
First thing I do is write down every nation’s unit strength and add up and compare and…well loads of analysis. It is heaven.
-
So I’m guessing you enjoy the statistical side of the game? That’s one area of math I’m not good at. All other aspects of math I am very good at, but I just cannot wrap my head around odds and probabilities. But you need them to do good at this game. Which is probably why I have a 30% win rate. :lol: (Though I beat an Intermediate once, when he made a tactical error. Luckily I was able to notice it when I did.) (I am a lot better at HeroScape, with a 55% win rate. Best game ever in my opinion. Axis and Allies would probably be second. :-P)
I mostly like the combat aspect of A&A and how you can rewrite history. Which is especially why I want Global Edition; it starts you basically at the beginning of the war, and gives you a lot of of options. And a huge map to play on!
-
I am not that clever. I just have this compulsion to write down statistics that I read. Then learn them by heart. Like knowing the regiments in a Brigade at Gettysburg or how many from each state. (Is OCD.)
Do love Global too, but my best never stay long enough for us to finish!
I do love history.
