Why not an Axis and Allies Stalingrad?

@superbattleshipyamato said in A&A: The Blockgame? (Axis and Allies Eurotrash Variant):

@all-encompassing-goose

I don’t get that last part though. So tipping them down shows the unit and the number of units is shown on the side facing the opponent?

Yup

@the-captain Oh damn! I never read the book, but I did see the HBO flick with Rutgar Hauer in the mid 90s hehe. It had a good set up in the intro, playing the film reels, but with an alternative narration. Failed D-Day as the premise right? And then everything going to hell after. Seems like a potentially interesting scenario. Like that one and the Man in the High Castle both work a similar “what if” angle. I always thought A&A in 1942 was a bit like ‘what if Japan had won at Midway’, cause like Charlton Heston and Henry Fonda couldn’t get the job done, and that explains why Japan is all Globe trotting in the endgame lol. That would be like my head cannon to explain what’s happening on J1 in 1942.2.

For a PvP game you never really get the chance to see it unfold, but in SP vs the AI in tripleA, the endgame of virtually every WW2 map can go like Alexa Davalos straight through the portal into Invasion USA lol. Like that boardgame Amerika right, but with a Global map instead of just North America I guess? Seems like it could be cool!

Yeah, lock Larry in a small room so the game wouldn’t have crazy stuff like capturing capitals and collecting money at the end of a turn.

Start in 1901 and let the powers go at it as they will.

@Gargantua:

Or an American invasion map. The UK and Russia both lost to the axis powers. While fighting some smaller battles in Africa and the middle east, they now focus on taking over the Americas. With the only ally to be Argentina on the Americas mainland, they now face a coalition of the remaining American powers with the United States, Canada and Brazil as the most important ones.

COOL

A what if the Americans stayed out of the war, and the axis won scenario.

I like it.

It can even include a tech race for the bomb.

Sounds like Fortress America in 1940s

@empireman:

I am starting a new series called: SPEED AXIS AND ALLIES

It’s hard to tell from so little information, but it sounds as if your concept may be similar to Axis and Allies Express:

@Gargantua:

When you go to make a post….

You know the big white box you are typing in?  Just to the bottom left of that is a button that says, + Additional Options  Click that.

That OR, where you click POST, look just slightly to left, and slightly up.

I tried that in the first place! and it said it was to big of a file…… I ment a DOWNLOAD LINK. YOU KNOW, BLUE WORDS YOU CLICK ON.

I agree with Jim Napoleon in Europe is a good bet.  I do think a strict axis and allies component system in a  Napoleon era would be awesome.

Did this game die off?
