Lets try this game..

@Topmat:

Hope your game goes great!  :-D

Thanks we had a good time. We finished that game and played another on Sat.  Then I dug out my Axis & Allies Navel ships and Wings of War (WWI & WWII) we played all those too. So we played a lot of games over the weekend I really enjoyed the time glad I never got rid of those things.

Joe gets Germany, which means Charles gets the U.S.

Axis:
Joe = Germany
Ty = Japan

Allies:
Brett = UK
Charles = US
Chris’ friend = Russia

The last starfighter is a fun movie, but it’s less of a controller than it is an Arcade game.

Great article marc!

@Imperious:

Cheating is stupid. Victory with it always has an asterisk next to it.

It’s just a freaking game and if you have to cheat, you have major psychological problems and should address them rather than play games IMO.

Just like all the steroid use!

Metal!

@Brain:

Looks great. Can’t wait to see the video of the new game pieces.

Can’t wait to make it!  :-)

well I went back and checked again and must admit I was mistaken. The tanks can only pull back from a blitz, which I guess has always been the rule. My bad. Anyway, having played with that rule for a few games of the kind described above, I still say it makes for a very interesting match. Germany benefits, but so does Russia since Russia gets to use her tanks more often.

I got ****ing lucky. First turn, Germany and Japan each take no casualties in initial attacks, Germany has enough stuff to hold eastern Europe. Third turn - Germany attacks Ukraine with like 10 infantry and a boat load of fighters, gets no hits, and 7 out of my 9 infantry hit. By turn 7 Germany was daed
and he conceeded. Japan was still in Yakut.
