I live in Northeast PA, so way too far away to make the trek out to Pittsburgh on a regular basis, but there is an Axis and Allies (Revised Edition) tournament coming up near Pittsburgh in July (21-22) of this year. Last year we had about 16 people turn up so you’ll have plenty of players to have a game with.
Good question about the definition of a long session. :-) We’ve played 6 hours or 12 hours. Depends on how much time we have to play, or how good the game is or how focused we are on the game. :mrgreen:
We play a modified version of the AA50 rules as we’re not big fans of the current tech rules. Would you like to see our rules that we use, and we can go from there is you like what you see? If so, you can PM me your email for exchange of the word docs. We also can converse on a more private level if you would like.
BTW, my friend is in Aurora and I am in Homer Glen, but travel to Elgin/Hoffman Estates to me is no biggie if the game play is worth the ride.
I’m in Lenexa. I’ve not played any of the 1940 games, but I like the idea of the global game and am not opposed to learning it. I’m typically a Spring 1942 player.
