Need help getting started again!

I tried to begin a multiplayer session, but i couldn’t because my code was already in use… BUT didn’t insert the code anywhere!! Why?? How can i resolve this problem?? Thank you!

@harry_beast:

I have a 98edition A&A-won’t run on my P4with WinXP-runs on my old P3with Me2000.It also doesn’t seem to have the capability to auto join multiplayer games.
  I would assume a newer game would be in order!
  So–---------What all do I need to play on-line?(real-time )

There is a patch for the multiplayer game at http://home.centurytel.net/khb/aa that is needed to play Hasbro’s A&A with the latest versions of DirectX.

http://www.axisandalliesworldclub.com is a site devoted to playing the Hasbro version online–you can find information on getting it to work as all, as well as find online games, there–check the message boards at that site.

@nefi:

hi. my question is: i atack whit 5 infantry units and 3 artillery units. then, all infantry units are supported by artillery

3 infantry units are supported by artillery.
you then have
2 inf rolls on a 1
3 inf rolls on a 2
3 rtl rolls on a 2

Artillery supports on a 1 to 1 basis, each artillery pairs up with one infantry unit to give the infantry a +1 attack bonus. This does not apply when defending.

@Revelade:

Can two or more bombers hit the same indust complex? And if so, assuming the area that the IC was on had a value of 3 and both bombers rolled 4 and 5, would the IC player lose only 3 IPCs, or would that damage stack, resulting in a 6 IPC loss?

This depends on what ruleset you are using. I see that theres a lot of confusion in this post regarding bombing raids, so I’ll try to make most of the questions clear.

If you are using LHTR the maximum combined damage inflicted in one turn by both strategic bombing raids and any rocket attack on the same industrial complex is the territory’s income value.
You can then attack several complexes to do more damage.

If you are using the out of the Box rules, the bombing raids are a bit more effective. Here each bomber can inflict no more than the territory’s ipc value.
This means that if you attack Caucasus with 3 bombers you can do up to a maximum of 12 damage, as the value of caucasus is 4 IPC, besides if you have the rocket tech you can still inflict up to 4 more damage with a rocket.

I should say that most players uses LHTR (Larry Harris Tournament Rules), as these are commonly agreed upon to be more fair, it should be obvious when you think about the bombing rules in the standart rules.

Regarding heavy bombers
In the standart rules, heavy bombers do 2 dice of damage both in regular combat and in bombing raids. That is 2-12 IPC damage, depending on the territory’s ipc value, the bomber can still only do damage up to the value of the territory.

In LHTR heavy bombers rolls two dice and then you get to choose what roll you want to keep. When Heavy bombers are in bombing raids you get to roll 2 dice, choose one of the rolls and add 1 to this value, this is for a damage of 2-7 per heavy bomber.

Hope this answers all your questions,

First off, i agree with Big Blocky. He’s right. You don’t go very offensively as Russia, but pick up the odd dead zone if it is offered to you. You want a buffer between the German front line and Caucasus if you can get it - if only to slow down the tanks.
Also it is a major pain for the allies to take (and retake) Eastern Europe. Rather than just land troops on West Eu which is a turn for the US - this move requires 2 turns for the US. It also makes boats more vulnerable to German planes. What i mean is that it takes a while to do anything on the mainland outside of west EU. Also i generally leave Manchuria alone. Unless it’s an easy pick with few expected losses, you’re simply spreading out your forces.
If you want to see some good strat as Russia - check out the games section and look in on a game where Darth Maximus or Kobu (both) or Big Blocky are playing, and generally you’ll pick up some good early moves.

I thought Wizards of the Coast did…

I think Mr. Ghoul is correct. Furthermore it has come up that one might even exceed the number of stacks as there are units - some kind of addendum, i believe.
