    • RE: Axis and Allies set sale

      @Gargantua:

      :(

      yeah I know, one of the reasons I don’t order from canada cause shipping is a killer, in the US it would cost under $20 for shipping for both games, but at least Canada is not as expensive as shipping to Australia, whoowhee thats pricey.

      @Gargantua:

      Give me a shipping estimate to Victoria British Columbia please.�  (assume I take 2 games, D-Day, BoTB)

      Postal Code V8S 2N2

      very cost prohibitive about $45 for just shipping, it would be priority since parcel or any other cheaper method not available.

      this is figuring a total weight of about 8.5 LBs (not sure of exact weight except over 2LBs per box all my little scale goes up to, anyone know exact weight of each ?).

    • RE: .

      Well both of us were playing this game for the first time, I let him pick the forces he wanted since I was aware of the axis bias, as it goes he made some mistakes to the point GB took southern Europe on its first turn with troops from India ?(thats a first for me) and as Russia I had them take Western Russia on the first turn.

      Also the part where I got confused was how a countries own Factories could only produce the amount of troops that territories IPC’s says. (wanted to flood India with troops to help Russia out, but could only put one per turn)

      played my first game today, I was Allies and lost but not sure if it was because the game is supposedly Axis Biased or because I had some pretty Cruddy roles of the die.

      Well so far my choices to sell are:

      Fortress America
      A&A: Battle of the Bulge
      A&A: D-Day
      Federation and Empire: complete and unplayed and unpunched
      Star Trek Battles III: Not Complete but has counters
      Risk 2210 AD
      Both LOTR’s Risk games (one has extra set of pieces)
      History of War Pacific and European Starter Decks

      now too figure out what prices to list these at.

      @wittmann:

      Excellent question. We are watching Aladdin with our 3 year old too!
      Nice one Mallery, but has to be Thermopylae. (Not fond of Persians.)

      I’d have to agree with you since that battle while a defeat for the Spartans was a morale victory for Greece, and stipulated Strategy is superior to superior numbers.

    • RE: No love for bulge?

      so essentially the only good thing in the game is the trucks ? the rest of the game can go trash itself?  I have been unable to play the game myself since no one to play which is why it will be one of the games I sell, but so far it sounds like it wasn’t a good system.

    • RE: The HMS Terror

      @Gargantua:

      Apparently it wasn’t the cans - or so we’ve heard lately.

      It was the distilled water system. :)

      So the Brita water systems weren’t up to snuff then ?

    • RE: Ugh i'm an idiot

      Well to clarify a few misconceptions, i’m not looking to sell off all my games, just a few to clear out the uneeded fluff, deciding which ones to keep and which ones to get rid of is the tough part, as to employment i’m well employed (partially also partially retired), but sadly the fist week of the month (or there abouts) is when I make my mortgage payment, pay my utility bills and so on, so by the time i’m done i’m broke (other then daily expenses) till the middle of the month.

      As it goes i’m on contract for special projects, so my schedule is a bit willy nilly, but it works for me, gives me plenty of time to work around my house and spend time with the wife and such.

      @Gargantua:

      Are you kidding?

      I flew across the continent for a game this April,  and recently met up with a group of gamers 5 hours from my place, 5 hours from someone elses, and 2 continents from another friend who stopped by on his way to Quebec, for a weekend of gaming.

      Mind you, I’m not looking to -sell- my games either.

      2.5 hours each way is F-all.  And if you find a basement inbetween, that’s only 1.15 each way for both of you.  That’s nothing.

      I guess there are just different calibre AA’rs…

      Step up, or step out Scar!  Hear my call! :P

      but let me guess it was for more then a day right? if your going the distance for a weekend thats no problem but for just the day ?
