Yes…… Thankyou all for your contributions in this regard. It is now high noon on November 2nd and I’m not sure what to anticipate, but I am checking harrisgames regularly.

I’m rather worried Larry’s gotten the flu and that’s why he has not posted… He’s usually pretty good about posting at least once every few days…

Maybe he got fed up with all of us and decided to develop a new word association game instead.

Axis and Allies, Scrable Edition?
@Cmdr:
Axis and Allies, Scrable Edition?
I would buy this game. Imagine getting tripple word and double letter score on words like battlehsip or panzer! :-D

Queenofthesea would be worth how much exactly???
(Quizzing on triple word score is my all time best scrable word ever…)
Hey Jen, I just had an idea regarding the Russian NO. What if it were worded that Russia could get the NO for capturing neutral territories in Europe (including Turkey) as long as it was taken by an Axis power first? I don’t think I would have such a problem with it then. I think my main beef was the idea of Russia hitting strict neutrals and getting rewarded for it.
Also, I personally think 3 IPCs per territory is too much, maybe knock it down to 2?
I like knp7765’s idea. It’s like how allies get credit for FIC but only if Japan takes it first.
I’d be better with it, personally.
Jen, Have you ever cosidered that the problems you have with your games are unique to your games? So far, the consensus is that, while poorly worded perhaps, the new objective works well enough and clears up a possible rules dispute.
and I hesitate to say this, as it may come across as a personal attack but please understand it is not intended as such, but with over 43,000 posts (to the tune of 16+ per day on average) one starts to wonder where you find the time to play the number of games to the lenght you do which allow these seemingly mind-boggling things to happen.
As astonishing as these numbers are, they do not include the hundreds and hundreds of posts on Larry’s site. Jen, I so admire your didication to our shared hobby, but when do you ever find time to play? I mean don’t your games last all day like ours, or are you just playing multiple online games at once while posting between turns?
I play one game at night from 9pm to 1am and we lock it up then (either declaring a winner or setting it aside for the next night.) And I play numerous games at the same time here. Hell, I only teach two classes right now: College Algebra (MATH 155) and Business Calculus (MATH 201). Not sure why there even is a Business Calculus…other than they get to use calculators on the final exam…but I digress…
…what I really want is to be a paid Axis and Allies game tester…you think Larry has any such positions? lol. Guess not…

Two cases of beer…… $52
Europe & Pacific 1940… $135
A set of combat dice from FMG… $29.99
Getting paid to play Axis & Allies every day?.. Priceless
I’m a psychology prof (teaching Perception and Neuroscience this term). I wonder how many academic types play Axis & Allies.

I’m a high school dropout, but I’m also a well read amateur historian. I understand the personal curiosity regarding your profession, but I’m more interested to know how many A&A players are there, that don’t know anything about world war 2 history, probably lots.
LOL true that!

I don’t PLAY Axis and Allies, I study it…yea, that’s what I am going with! Think I can get an article published about the statistics of Axis and Allies? Oooh…that would be nice! I can see the discussion with my department head now!
Speaking of…anyone hiring? I think I may need a job soon after getting that article published. lol
a pub’s a pub.
I was a few credits away from a degree as a History major, but didnt finish, now im the number 2 guy at a contract security firm, funny how life goes……
I’m a kid…
I have a degree in Asian culture and languages. I’m studying for a more deep specialization now. The culture part of my degree focus mainly in history of Asia, so my passion for World History is unrelated to my career. Yet… I didn’t bought Axis and Allies 'cause I’m a history geek, I just liked the system, the miniatures, the map. I’m not either a Germany fanboy (I know few here that are fanboying German’s ww2 warmachine) and neither a US one. I enjoy playing this game a lot :)
Oh, I may add, my future wife hates Larry Harris with all her soul lol.
