@hengst We have cats in our house so we built a wooden cover to cover our board with but we could only do it for 1 theatre of the war. Do you know if this could be compatible with either europe or pacific? Thanks.

I have the global 40 pieces and some random stuff from HBG but I don’t have any pieces for the actual GW game

@theveteran could you give me the updated link?

@lefishyboi Take the suez, transport your units to India if Japan controls it, go into Yunnan! ;D

@all-encompassing-goose

To clarify, it’s the 2008 version in new condition but without the sealed wrapper

@abates95 Hello abates. I have a copy of Anniversary Edition coming in a few weeks. What do you call a reasonable price for it? EBay is listing it from $325 to $599.

*The condition is new but the sealed wrap is torn but everything else is in new condition

Hello! I picked this up for $120 and I’m wanting to know where I can sell this game and if people will buy it at all? On Ebay there are 3 listings, one being used for $325 and the other “new” ones going for $599. What is your advice, and are there any other places where I can sell this?

Have you thought of introducing supply lines?

@superbattleshipyamato I don’t know why but I keep calling “rounds” as “turns”

Hello @The-Captain I am finally able to try out this Basic Expansion! It’s been around half a year since I have played Axis and Allies and I cant wait to play again. Anyways, I got these printed as well as the decal sheets in the Regular Expansion. Going to try and measure the individual roundel decals and glue them on plastic pieces whenever I can. Only problem is storage I think because we use a pool table and A&A 1940 fits most of it with the exception of being able to have the little supply boxes around the map.

We got a larger container to hold my extra pieces I got from HBG (yes, I went on some sort of frenzy and bought 70 dollars worth of stuff because they didn’t remove shipping from the order.) I got a research development chart from HBG so maybe I can implement some of the features from there with the Basic Expansion.

If I don’t have enough space for everything on the full board, is it possible to only the ones specific to a certain theatre and not be unbalanced? We did this a few times because the full game takes 2 days for an entire turn and it takes 1 day for 1 turn on just Europe or Pacific (sometimes if we go quick we can get by with two turns)

I hope you see this message, thanks.

@radioj45 If that was implemented with the house rules expansion mod by The_Captain, it would be amazing.

@ryandascienti Ping me when you send the map, thanks.

@hungrymoose It’s for balancing purposes. Most of the stuff from Borneo was shipped directly for Malaya so it’s basically 1 IPC for the dutch and 3 IPC for the UK (pacific)

@tincanofthesea hmm

@the-captain I guess that makes a sealion attempt still “possible” by the Germans if it ever comes to it.

@tincanofthesea idk. I am going to try it in the Pacific map and see how it goes. Going to do a allied bid game (our first official one lol) because last game, allies didn’t really stand a chance. I wonder if there are “Blockade” markers at HBG, well if the shipping wasn’t so expensive I could buy those-

This will be my last 40 game before I will use the new stuff I got from HBG 🙂 maybe try to learn the G40 Balanced Mod (TheCaptain’s) + some extra stuff

@tincanofthesea Then maybe if there are:

A total of 5 attack in the enemy ships in a seazone, the cannot build any Navy in that seazone (blockaded)

Example: a cruiser and a destroyer (cruiser Attack: 3 + destroyer Attack 2 = 5)

If there is no port facility, then one unit can blockade the coast (does not have to have an attack value)

A famous example of this is the Confederacy during the US civil war 🙂 but it makes sense that like… 1 sub unit cannot blockade an entire island.

@tincanofthesea I think it’s a lot more realistic if you can do a blockade like that

@superbattleshipyamato Hi uhh… your message didnt update so I only saw your first sentence XDD sorry for the other reply…
