Axis & Allies Miniatures Set II Previews

If you purchase a case of 12 you will not get a full set, you will get about half. Their cases are prepacked with the same miniatures in 2 different cases. So you would require 2 cases to get a full set of rares, however, there is no way of telling which cases you are purchasing as they are not marked.

Good call. I ended up buying my iPhone last year when it was mucho dollars. I used money from a huge eBay auction I sold. Then, a month later, iPhones dropped $200. DANGIT! Of course, back then, I wasn’t introduced to A&A.

To reiterate, Tide Of Iron is a board game, in that its not collectable.  Everyone gets the same stuff in their box, just like other board games.  They have an expansion that adds some more units and scenarios I think, according to the website.

I’m considering putting ToI on my Christmas list, if I here enough positive reviews of it.

I like both modes of travel but I’m a soldier.  My son joined the Navy instead.  I play both but I play the army game more!

I see your point too,
but damn that’s a really cool feature that gives AT guns a real purpose in this game.

In my area the stores seem to be selling off the old stock and new stuff is no where to be seen.  This is why I buy enough when I start something to last me a life time.

@Mechanized:

Maybe Motdc’s map program will help a lot in this kind of game.  :wink:

We just need one or two test games going and then I can continue work on it!

Well damn……no one wants to play against me.  I suppose I can play a test game by myself.  :wink:

Planes attack the same way as any other unit, with the sole exception that terrain doesn’t block LOS to and from them.

While I don’t hate them, I’m not a huge fan of airpower either.  Things bog down too much when you have to constantly ‘watch the skies.’
