Which nation for which player

Hello everyone, please checkout my YouTube video discussing how to become a better Axis & Allies player.

Cheers.

I was just wondering if anyone know of any tournaments that take place in the DC Metro area? I’d really like to try one out, but am not able to go to GenCon or anything like that.

I tried to delete this topic but I guess I can’t.  Mods please delete this topic.  I’m going to ask my questions in the G40 boards, as it seems like that is probably the better place to ask my questions as they pertain to specifically G40

Original Europe.  Just a great game overall for new folks. And still fun for grizzled vets.

Welcome to the A+A boards, BigKahuna!

Hoping that you have your answers already, but here goes:

1.  Strategic bombing raids (SBRs) ONLY attack the industrial complex of a territory, not the units therein.  If your game is playing without fighter escorts (optional rule decided by players ahead of time), the defender gets to roll his AA gun for each bomber SBRing the territory (killing a bomber for each 1 rolled), and that’s it.  If you’re playing with fighter escorts, check the errata to see how many shots the defender gets for the fighter(s) stationed ONLY in the industrial complex’s territory.  Surviving fighters don’t get to bomb the factory.  Other than that, the other units in the territory don’t get to participate.

2.  Usually that’s the case with this game, getting enough people to actually play a 5 person game.  Team up, of course!  Usually UK and Russia go well with the same person, sometimes I see UK and the USA by the same person.  If only two people, obviously Axis and Allied teams.

3.  Shoot, just use a pad and paper, but probably 30 of each should be more than enough.  IPCs usually in the range of 50-60 per side at their highest.

What I used to do, as a high school girl, was to use a white chip under the control marker to signify it made it past the end of the chart once.

Now a days, I use a mapping utility even for face to face games.  No limit on pieces, on chips or on money!  (Also it’s set up instantly and you don’t have to put it away when you’re too drunk to see straight!)

according to the operations manual page 30 the transport may carry any land unit and a infantry… so i don’t reckon that you could carry two arts… unless your using a diffrent set of rules… or updated ??

but then again it seems every set has its own rules… slightly diffrent from the last set…
could be you transports may only carry two men… or a tank if its 2nd edition…

As well Wehrmacht, i woul dnever go for the ukraine as Russia in turn 1. Whoever holds EE has the initiave in the war, so that’s where i would do the battle… and it would become a 1-2-3 punch in few rounds…
