Well “back in my day”, growing up as a teen/young-adult in the 1980s, we didn’t have much in the way of computer games. Back then every game was a board game of some type for the most part, and while I did play extensively the more “grognard” hard-core board wargames like just about everything from Avalon Hill and SPI, and Axis and Allies was just another game I got into in my youth which was simpler to play with my friends. There was always something “beer and pretzels” about Axis and Allies back in the 1980s that to this day still attracts me to the game. I’ve recollected (is that a word) and customized my current 2nd-Edition version of the game, and spent quite a bit on extra units, printed game-boards and the like… all with few people to play against, but it’s part game, part collectible, and its fun either way.

I pulled off an 18/20 getting the questions about A&A being published by a small indie game company wrong and the question about the allies being able to launch a joint strike wrong (I swear that’s a rule in A&A revised!).
The B-17 thing I just figured, all the pieces are supposed to be based on some historical unit, lucky guess for me :-D

Actually, in the ORIGINAL Nova Games version, the allies all went at the same time.
Again, this person needs to be converted into a corpse. What insults!

I want to find this person in real life, and beat them with my anniversary edition box, until it’s decorated with their blood.
A little much… no?
Sometimes excessive violence - is the immediate and ONLY answer.
Such is the case in this situation…

I always cover my maps with plexiglass for protection during really serious games.

I cover mine in Red wine. Works almost as well!

It’s hard to quiz on the rules, since there are some many official versions as well as optional rules.
For example, National Advantages made unit capabilities differ by countries (one of the quiz questions)

17/20 I miss understood what they were asking in the 3 I got wrong and guessed right on 3 others that was kind of hard to understand what they were asking. Again it’s hard to ask about rules when there’s been so many games and rules sets.
