I found this on a random site. I’ll post if I get my hands on it again.
Closest to classic
-
Hi, I was an enthusiastic A&A Classic player for many years, and didn’t even know that the game has so many variants. Now, after years of not playing I want to buy my cousin a new game for his birthday – A&A that will look and feel as similar to classic as can be (a new classic is to expensive for me at the moment). Among the variants, what would you say looks and feels closest to A&A Classic? A&A Second edition?
Thanks,

Revised is most likely it, but the best is still global 40

Axis and Allies 1942 Second Edition is what you want.
GLobal is too big for beginners, and 1941 is lame.
