Got it you’re right!

I was only looking in the National Objective section (p. 25-26)

Thank you!

Hi there i just found my old Axis and allies Europe i don’t know if it is first or second edition but i googled it and i think have the first since there is no japan. But i opened it and started reading the game manual and in there it says i need something called a National production chart but i can’t find it in the box or anywhere else. So i was wondering if you could print it out somewhere on the internet.

Well, if it has a blue France, then it is Europe 1940. If France is a light brown, then it is the Original Europe (1999).

There are two versions of Europe 1940. If each country has its own colored anti-air guns, then it is second edition. First edition aa Guns are little cardboard tiles that are all the same color.

As for a national production chart, I am not sure how you get one, but it is easy to make your own. What it is for is tracking how much money a country is making. For example, If Germany lost all of its territory except Germany and West Germany, it’s income would be 10 (5+5), and have a German marker at 10 on the chart. All you do is use excel or something and create, say a 6x10 chart with the numbers 1-60 in order. Use the countries’ markers to track how much each makes.

It’s also possible that 2nd edition has the production chart on the board (the numbers at the top).

I’m as gentlemanly as they come, but I’d check-raise my Grandmother if she sat at a poker table with me.

Not yet.

Yes, but with so much information overload I started doubting my own thoughts and ideas.

@GrayBlaZe:

Hey Keighund, got a question; Why could it not be considered to be up to a nine person global game instead of six.  I do understand that playing France, China or ANZAC will be very minor, however, it’s possible for nine people to draw straws and last three places got it get the minors.  Or am I missing somthing?  I’m assuming that it’s just listed as six because that is the max number that would be a good game to spread playing around equally so nobody is just totally eliminated fast with France or having to play limited China.  Is this correct?  Thanx……

You’ve already answered your own question:

@GrayBlaZe:

When they state the number of players, it is just a recomendation.  You could very well play with nine players except; France, China, & ANZAC would be quite boring, unless a newbe or child was playing with you, it would be good for them to play a minor country.  If you are playing with six then some player would play two counties, however, they are still considerd nine different armies; if you play two they don’t mix there income.  So it always be nine indiviual counties weither you play with nine people or two.

The “official” player mix listed in the rules is what we consider to be the best mix for optimal enjoyment of the game.  There’s nothing stopping you from changing that if you have more than six people who want to play.  I do think, however, that getting beyond six will definitely get into territory that could be at least somewhat boring for players of minor powers (ANZAC, China and France).  A seventh player playing all three wouldn’t be too bad, though.

My hopes jumped for a second when I saw the title of this thread, thanks for the let down lol.

You should know better than that.

A possible example (you can get the idea)
