Stop the presses: Glemax has Axis and Allies revised… finally!

Hi all,

First time posting. Must say, a very robust site with lots of A&A content.

If anyone is still interested in playing A&A Revised by email, I encourage you to check out the International Axis&Allies Player Association (IAAPA). We are the oldest online A&A club, still going strong for almost 30 years. Our club is free to join and games are free to play with other club members through our website and online dice roller. We also host numerous club tournaments throughout the year that all members are welcome to play,

The only requirement is that you pass a simple test to make sure you understand the rules. That, and you want to have fun playing the best game in the world.

Please visit www.axisandallies.net for more information, or email me spud@axisandallies.net if you have any questions.

That’s good news - it would have been a shame to lose such a good online gaming site.

Glad you like them

Like someone else stated:

when a newbie plays, he has an advantage to play axis.
more experienced players will have a better time playing allies.

why? because the coordination it takes as allies to make it work!

Or, if you are like me, just raid chips (and extra Japan INF and ARM, something else I have run out of in the last 2 games I played) from your Milton Bradley Classic AA game.  Exactly the same size and style :-)

since owning Revised… I just don’t have the feel to play the old game… Revised is better.

@prof_tc:

1: Are you sure the Superfortresses aren’t too strong? Then again, it is historically accurate.

2: what happens as you lose tanks with the Ger. heavy tanks?
I know you tested all these new rules, and I’m sure you made a decision. I assume that the first is a heavy tank, and then every 4th after that.

1. The superfortresses advantage is now counterable for the Axis, but cost a lot to develop Jet Fighters! However to old rule of mine that I have in these revised NAs may be a better choice since now the U.S. needs to develop heavy bombers as well. This variant with one additional die per bomber in a SBR is not really playtested! But compared to the original one, I am sure it wont be worse to the Axis as long as they can counter it with jets! :wink:

Damage caused by heavy superfortresses (Heavy Bombers development and Superfortresses advantage) against an IC protected by jets (Jet Fighter development):
5/63(1/61+1/62+1/63+1/64+1/65+1/66) + 5/61/610 IPCs = 10,1 IPCs

Damage caused by AA fire and intercepting jets (on a 1:1 ratio for fighters and bombers) on bombers in a SBR:
1/615 + 3/615 = 10 IPCs

This means that the German and Japanese player needs to develop Jet Fighters to an average cost of 30 IPCs and have as many fighters protecting each IC as there are U.S. heavy superfortresses within reach for a potential SBR! The allies would just have a slight advantage to the axis if conducting a SBR with heavy superfortresses, it is even less then for a regular bomber that conducts a SBR on an IC only protected by an AA gun!

2. this is from another thread about “Heavy Tanks”:

First cycle of combat:
Put the first 2 tanks on 3 and every third tank on 4. Repeat this until all tanks are on your battleboard. At the end of the combat remove casualties.

Second cycle of combat:
Remove all remaining tanks from battleboard and redeploy them by putting the first 2 on 3 and every third tank on 4. Repeat that until all your remaining tanks are on the battelboard… and so on!
