Should I get A&A?

14 is a great age to start playing A&A. it’s not too complicated depending on your group of friends etc. - actually, it’s quite easy to pick up initially. By the time you’ve become more comfortable with the game, you can discern more easily how to deal with more complicated strategies and rules’ nuances.

it’s definitely not too complicated. i’m 14 and its my favorite game :) . it’s not very complicated, i learned 2 years ago and i thought it was pretty easy even then

Guest i’m 14 and i enjoying the Axis and Allies. Yes sure i didn’t understand the rule at the beginning but with some practice i got it! It always fun beating your dad!! :lol:

yeah, i kno it’s always fun to crush your dad. even the first time i ever played i beat him :lol:

if you haven’t played before, i would suggest that you try to be the axis in your first game, as they usually win the first few games in beginner games b/c the allies haven’t perfected working together, and the germans can take moscow easily if the russian player has no idea what he’s doing. if you are japan, then try to run wild on the mainland, maybe building a complex in manchuria by turn 3 or 4 (depending on how well you’ve done against india and china) to pump out tanks to take into russia. if you’re the allies, get ur allies to focus on taking out germany and africa first, and then japan second, and russia should buy all infantry, beacuse they are great on defense and can attack well if there are enough of them.

yeah, it takes awhile to do that. the most annoying game ever to get the pieces out for is diplomacy. it took me at leats like half an hour just to get all the pieces out.

how long did it take you to get out all the diplomacy pieces?

those little things must have been designed to make you go nuts

did u play A&A yet?

try to play it tonight, its friday

guest, have you had a chance to play it yet? i feel sorry for you if you haven’t… a week is WAY too long to have to wait to play A&A right after you bought it
