Sovietschat (A) vs Ichabod (X) - Game3

@Ichabod:

Maybe if the Africa token was scrapped all together or completely changed it would make sense to me. I don’t think you’re playing Global 40 if as Germany/Italy you’re going for a North Africa token rather than London or Moscow. Last time I checked there isn’t an Allies’ capital down there.

Perhaps if Cairo, Iraq, Persia, and NW Persia were Axis controlled…maybe; it ties into the “oil” NO objectives and you can theoretically fight up through the Caucasus towards Moscow. But that would be more like a middle east token. And in a game like that, the Axis are winning economically anyways if they reached that far, so my idea here is mute.

On the allies side, I guess it would have to be something along the lines of controlling those territories plus all of the islands in the med…I don’t know.

I just don’t like the Africa token and at this point, these comments are purely academic. I like stuff like Philippines liberation, no capital ships on the board, ect.

For tournament purposes, the token system makes sense to me.

I agree 100% with you, it is not a way to play axis and allies at all! I wish you had been there as well so we could have met in person and you would have played with these tokens! We had players coming from Las Vegas, Hawaii, it was nuts!

Maybe we can plan a table top game next summer together  :-)
