What do I need to do and know in order to play a game by email/ forum?

@frasil18 Hi frasil link text

can also play live on triplea lobby or look for ftf players here: link text

But keep in mind the following exception:

@rulebook:

If a Japanese industrial complex is built on a Chinese territory
and that territory is later recaptured by the Chinese or liberated
by another Allied power, the industrial complex is removed from the game.

(If you play 1st Ed. it is on page 9.)

russia is that really big basically empty country above china, and japan is that weird island chain to the east of china. just messing. i was going to send you the cards but wasnt fast enough. drive on!

I think you need to uninstall Direct X 9.0 and get 8.0

The game does freeze your comp. occasionly and it sometimes right when your about to win :evil: ! Don’t know why it does it but there are “pathes” to fix it…

Greetings all,

Yesturday I read the rules for Axis and allies and I finished my first game today at the Allies (playing my brother who beat the living daylights outta me). Anyways, I am familiar with Diplomacy PBEM (www.redscape.com I’m Blitzkrieg) and I am interested in playing A&A online.

So… if anyone is willing to play a game with me, or four players if you please, I would love to go. I do not know, however, about opening bids (i’ve heard them mentioned as I fish around this site for info) and a couple other tid bits that I don’t yet comprend. The ideal situation would be 1 experianced player and me and 3 other newbies possibly so that we can be babied through a quick game to get the feel? I could trade dip lessons for A&A lessons :D.

Any takers?? Anyone?? We don’t have to play a game but I’m very interested in learning to play A&A PBEM.

Blitzkrieg

i dont know what your talkin about. i played as allies vs my friend who is very experienced and i won (wasnt easy tho)

u need to employ tactics man.

for example i made a raiding force, and built up like 6 bombers, and a strong navy, beat the japs out of phillipines and then built a factory there (dont worry if they did take it its not very useful to build there) and i kept strat bombing them (6 moves to japan and back to phillipines) and sending troops to sumatra, borneo, and the rest, until u have a decent invasion force, then its cake

jap player only got to 40 for one round in my game. be a coward in china, hold all your troops up in schechwan since rest of china is worthless and u cant attack to get korea or manchuria. build a good force of arty and infantry in india, hold back britains navy until its strong enough to severely damage the jap navy. use combat air patrols to protect your boats. watch for the strategically significant naval bases and airfields.

keep in mind tho no strategy is 100% in axis and allies. its like chess… on steroids… with luck involved!
