What We Want the Next AA boardgame to be.

I could definitely go for a North Africa or an Operation Barbarossa game.

Yes,@Brain:

a Barbarossa game with lots of land zones to allow maneuver.

North Africa seems to be the best option:

1. Chance for new Italian units

2. Cool early war German tanks

3. Fluid battlefront, with strongpoints (Tobruk)

How far should the map go. It shouldn’t show Germany so how would they work. PS vichy France units would be cool.

Well perhaps we will just have to make our own using FMG units.@reloader-1:

@cminke:

for get it. LH said no N africa, although i LLLLLLLLLLove the idea.  :-)

When and where did Larry say no? And did he say what was a possibility?

on a more serious note I would like to see a pacific edition. But not like the new 1940. I would want to see one with several different boards, Midway, Iwo Jima, Philippines, Hong Kong, etc. with several different setups each. I would also like to see a different colour of units for guerillas.

I hate star wars

:| :? :x :cry: :-o

His Mitachlorin levels are to low I Guess

I hate starwars? Dude I feel for ya, that movie was life changing for me as a 9 year old boy from small texas town. It opened my eyes to the fact I could do anything I set my mind to. But at least we all share one common love here…Axis and Allies!

I would buy an AA Star Wars game.

I’m pretty sure you’re not alone on that one :-D.

Seriously, though, I want a Russian Front AA, with the cities being able to be held by both sides at the same time. Maybe rules for the onset of Winter, USSR’s virtually endless supply of men etc.

Stalingrad please!

I’m quite fond of Star Wars: The Queen’s Gambit, though it’s a bit more like Battle Cry than A&A.  There’s a lot more to the strategy than one would think given what people have written about it.  Someday I’m going to write a detailed Queen’s Gambit strategy article.

I would love a good A&A style NATO vs. Warsaw Pact. Does anyone know if this is out there somewhere?

Best game out there is EAST & WEST

Looks interesting. I was hoping for something a little less encompassing than global scale. I’d like to focus on ground fighting from Norway to Saudi Arabia without getting as big as the GDW Third World War Series. Basically, eliminate most of East Asia and the Pacific, USA, and Africa. That way there are more TTs to fight over in the Germany/Poland/Middle East Areas.

Are those Axis and Allies game pieces?

Xeno games pieces, actually. Less quality and slightly smaller than Axis & Allies 2nd Edition pieces, but identical to them.

How about an A&A WWI game?

Imp Games made an amazing game called “The Great War” (never released). Checkout their website for more details
