Axis And Allies 1932 seems too unbalanced for me. This was before the Nazis rose to power, and if the game is set in 1938 or 1939, the Nazis will just be killed by the Western Allies-if a game needs to be balanced, the earliest date that can be done is the date that the 1940 game starts with, when the French Army, the biggest threat to Germany, is more or less destroyed. I guess an early 1940 game, after German troops redeployed from Poland, could work.

The political aspect of the war has always been interesting to me. Whilst players simply making deals can work, I feel like it can be better, but I don’t know how. Having shifting alliances, however it’s done, can be a lot of fun though, as it adds a lot of unpredictably to the game, and can make the situation like Diplomacy (which I never played, I’m just basing it off of what I read).

Late war research and development sounds like a good idea, especially as military technology would have advanced faster than real life, as all countries would be at war, trying to advance technology as fast as possible. Nuclear weapons seem interesting, as I explore in this topic:

Switching sides, especially if they already are at the start of the game and can continue to change, can make the war last a really long time, and can make it crazy and fun-I wonder how will victory conditions work though?

@Yavid:

As for me, I don’t mind having 2 colors for the “major powers,” 1 for standard troops and 1 for elites.

When everything is finished I’m going to have 2 color schemes(Europe/Pacific) for “standard” troops of all countries(except China) plus another scheme for certain areas on the map. This doesn’t include the Special Forces units.

For example, the U.K. would have units in a “European” scheme, a “Far East” scheme(shown above), a “Desert” scheme, and specific schemes for their “Airborne” and “Special Forces” units.

America, Germany, France & Italy would also have “Desert” schemes.
Russia, Germany, & China would have “Winter” schemes.
Special Forces units galore.
Etc., Etc., Etc.

Those really are amazing. � Whose your painter again?

“Allworkandnoclay” is my painter and I’m very happy with his work. I love his idea of painting the national ensigns of each country on their Infantry bases. I come up with what I want and pay for them and he paints them. As long as his eyes don’t go blind,…or I go bankrupt from paying for them, we’ll eventually get ALL of the units done. We still have a ways to go as all of the HBG and FMG units haven’t been produced yet.

it would be really funny to see them putting training wheels on the Bicycles just so the molds stand up on there own.

i went through this i got a battlestrip anyway I told them repeatively it wasn’t something i needed but i got another one, they did send me 9 more tac bombers 6 that were missing and 3 more to say sorry

Just realized that I Hadn’t looked at all of your pieces. These ones look nice as always. I want some.

cost 7, if VS land targets:

these are 3-3 units moving 2 and each plane boosts the tank +1 at 1:1 basis

if VS Sea targets:

3-3 units moving 2 ( carrier based)…also possible modifier for attacks on surface ships ( not sure)

They cant move from land or from sea to attack the other on the same turn. So carrier planes cant attack land targets unless they fly first to land on the turn before and vice versa.

this will result is fighters staying on land where they belong with a few on carriers as escorts

Yes but if I play Russia aggressively they will end up with much of China. Additionally, as someone here pointed out the British can keep their navy in the IndianSz and thus keep the Jap navy at home. With the Americans I tend to go hard after Economic conquest, and this is because I can pick up a lot of free infantry that way. However, I will also send all of the navy into the Pacific to defend against the Japs and possibly even withdrawing from the Phillipines as well. If I combine this with a purchased carrier and give them 6 ftrs this navy can be really tough to beat, and Japan is not likely to attack it until turn 4-5 giving the Allies plenty of time to prepare for the war, or they may be forced into war by turn2. In my experience the sooner Russia and America are at war the better the Allies chances to win are.

@tmz70:

Dude, If Japan cannot advance against Russia to make them fight a two front war. The axis will most assuredly fail. The game is already slanted against them. If you play with that variant, will you have another that will even it out in some way. like Germany cannot be attacked by Russia unless they attack first? I dunno, does’t seem like it would be feasible.

Yes there is one variant we played in that regard… the allies cannot enter the baltic unless they control W. Europe therefore defeating there ability to strike E. Europe… I Dunno why it seems like it’s neat but not feasible… in fact in the game I played the axis won… the Russians sunk the Baltic fleet, and missed in destroying Finland-Norway completely(1 Inf. was the only german casualty :-?) by luck and put up a huge defense in Keraila SSR… mabye that’s the reason the axis won, but, I think otherwise… Remember the variant saves Japan 3 Inf. and a Fighter in Manchuria to use on a first turn attack on China, and opens the option :lol: for attacks on India or Ssainking …on T1 if the Hawaii fleet disapears with overwhelming odds from Japan then the Japanese can SOLELY focus on the US because the Russians are not hitting manchuria… Yeah the germans don’t get Japanese support for 1-3 turns and the americans and british most likely are hitting africa and (highly unlikely but possible) W. Europe mercilessly, but hey, if japan is up to 34-38 IPC’s and actually terrizing (or landing) on american shores distracting there attention; Big whoop!!! as long as your wearing down on the Russian Inf. … besides Moscow if just attacked with just one 1 Inf. (no SBR or fighter strafing on the capital allowed) will trigger a japanese assault… :( the russians will be overrun if they don’t defend Novorbisk, Kazakh SSR, Yakut SSR, Soviet Far East + defending against the germans…who could through Persia then Kazakh SSR blitz a single german Tank and hit Moscow, or if germany holds Keraila and survives a counter-attack… the Japanese can even support there German counterparts by hitting the British-American shipping through aircraft attacks by flying (from french indo-china) to Anglo-Egypt for fighters or to S. Europe for the bomber, or better yet Subs through the panama on waiting transports in US SZ when thier there… Germany just needs to buy lots of inf. T1, and tanks T2… viola!!! maybe how I usually strategize both sides is different from yours… dunno to me I can’t see how the axis can lose!!!
