MOVED: Axis and Allies browser-based

After making bigger maps for Global 1940 and Anniversary, Renegade is now putting up an enlarged 1914 map for pre-order:

@jim010 Looking forward to adding some IPC chips to my collection in June, and of course for North Africa in August! Great stuff!

@all-encompassing-goose Well everyone know A&A is a gambling game. Thats why Low Luck attempts at all the various games break the game because the setup was based on gambling dice, not bean counter types who wear white shirts and thin black ties and have their hair slicked back like Pat Riley circa 1983.

The only possible game that LL might work is Global, but that’s not fun either.

Triple A has had time to work out bugs/kinks, as well as having all game versions.

To me, the # of games available + the AI are most important.

If you’re referring to this board section…

…as far as I can tell it was set up by Larry in October 2004 under the very general theme of “What are some MUST HAVE’S you like to see in an advanced game?”  When someone on the board asked “What is this anyway?  Is advanced axis and allies really being designed, and if so, about what percent is it done? Would we be able to expect to see this this year? Next? 2007?”, someone called Lobo answered “It’s something that Larry is interested in doing. It may or may not see fruition.”  Larry confirmed this by saying “Lobo is correct. There are no definitive plans or time line for such a game. There is however an identified need for this baby.”  So the board section seems to have been just intended for brainstorming purposes, not for the development of a specific game.

Just to put those threads into context: October 2004 is a few months after Revised and D-Day came out, four years before Anniversary came out, and five years before the first 1940 game (Pacific 1940 1st ed.) came out.  So this notional “Advanced A&A” may in fact have generated some ideas that were incorporated into some of the A&A games that were published since 2004.
