If axis conquer moscow is not a victory?

About Axis and allies 1941
Much has been criticized about this version, and much of the criticism is correct, because it fails in its main premise: to be a gateway for new players.

-A manual that wastes a LOT of space, and does not include a complete developing of each face for a power as a example. It also does not include a glossary showing what the unit models are, such as if it is at the end of the 1940 manual. It does not include an IPC management table and industrial capacity, as if there were in 1940, for photocopying.
-There are no aid cards for players.
-And yes, there are not enough pieces to play optimally.
All this makes new people get a bad impression of the franchise, even asking, if the other versions have the same shortcomings. Now, videos say that there are missing pieces to play well, but they don’t say which ones or how many.

Those are my ideas:
How many more pieces should the edition have (or you need to add).
11 more gray chips
1 die
1 infantry and 1 destroyer, for USA
1 destroyer, 1 infantry, 1 transport, for Japan
1 submarine for Germany
1 USSR infantry
What pieces to subtract:
2 green chips
1 USSR submarine
2 USSR transports

If Zombies has money, I don’t understand why not 1941, which is supposed to be a more important issue, because it is introductory. They require:
18 CPI of 1
5 CPI of 5
5 CPI of 10

I would also add aeronautical movement counters, as in the revised edition:
4 of 1, 4 of 2, 2 of 3, 2 of 4

I tink a new production an sell cost increase, but now is in Amazon $18us, with those new pieces i believe, no more of $28us. ¿What do you think?

@Playing-Kid said in Axis & Allies 1941 Trivia:

@CWO-Marc Found the video you were talking about. Here’s the link, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YmBo8q0akGo

Great, thanks for the link! That video is a classic.

the allies cannot win with russia so heavily crushed. The gain in IPC’s for both the axis countries should ensure victory. As germany, take the rest of russia in order to close that theater, even if you lose another West europe germany. After closing that front, focus entirely on GB and take back Europe. You should be able to do this with the gain of IPC’s. Build your navy and keep using the economy to your advantage. Obviously you have more IPC’s than britain, which means you should be able to slowly overrun them. As japan, a navy would serve well to repulse the Americans. BUT make sure you don’t lose japan. So before you build a navy, make sure you have adequate defense on your mainland, and make sure the americans can’t land in Asia (screw Australia, you can take that back, not important) Once you are secure from landings. Use your IPC’s you took from Russia and the Middle east to build a navy that can cleanse your waters. With Both axis focusing on a Navy, you will be able to take the war to their doorstep by giving yourself an offensive fleet that can land troops onto the American continents while forcing the allies to play defensively

And more fun rampaging around the map with Japanese Inf and German Tanks, feeling the exhilaration of a heady victory in the making.

I’m pretty sure it’s allies biased

At least if they do that the UK can take some extra IPC and what not, thus being better suited to take on germany.
