WAR ROOM II - The Sequel

@MajorJoey

Hi Joey,

Thanks for your comment - I can confirm, that it has been time consuming to get this far with the Axis & Allies War Room.

But most importantly - it was worth the effort - and we continue to have tons of fun & challenge playing Axis & Allies.

You can find more pictures on this forum at the House Rules section - look for Global 1940 & 1943 Game Reports.

Best regards
Captain

Anybody have any liks to non HBG World War One naval and air units in Axis and Allies scale???

Need Konig Class Dreadnoughts and iconic ships of the period

Iv’e always felt that in the game axis has to win by a certain turn to win. Once you go be on a certain turn then your going into late 45 46 47 etc.
Victory city’s and or points seems to get a quicker out come in our games. If axis don’t have 30 points by end of any turn up to 10 rounds they lose. Now of course this may change based on better players. We usually can see if the axis will get 30 points on turn 10 or not or maybe 11.

Your probably looking at a bit different scenario.
Losing side

But then all players have to agree but the winning side will say we won but losing side got the end win.

Something to that affect ? But then game may drag on.

@Midnight_Reaper well, i use the 3 pieces of the first image, they serve me well, for that they are.
Now, the system and the mechanics of the game are made for a fast gameplay, and map and combat are more a -ww2 in europe- theme or abstraction, instant of a true 100% historical simulation.
Yes, random dice can by a problem some times, but rock-paper-scissors system can minimice the dice factor. And there are some post-production official optional rules and ideas, i find in the forums, to engance gameplay.
Wen i playtest all options, i can put here, if you want to know, my full opinion on the game.

@SS-GEN yes they are my victory city markers, a nail, in a 1/2 wood plug (available at any hardware store) with a flag printed in colour. I use the same 1/2 plugs as flight stands, by adding a dress making pin, 1 inch for fighters, 1.25 inches for bombers, 1.5 inches for tactical fighters. If you cut the heads of the pins after hammering them into the plugs, you can heat them with a candle to lance the planes… works great.

@CWO:

if the Imperial War Museum still operates its “Blitz Experience” feature (if I recall the name correctly), I recommend it.

Didn’t see it when I went there last summer, but I might just have missed it.

Roger that - I’ll hop on over there now.  Thanks!

Game time this weekend, Axis won with Japs taking India, Pearl and Filips!  8-)
