Im selling a bundle of A&A50 + Revised. Both sets are 100% complete, and both games have been opened but never played. (Revised pieces are still in the sealed plastic)

PM if interested or for additional info and pictures.

Fair price in mind and ready to ship.

In the process of moving Lozmoid, and I’m cutting down on the huge amount of games and music equipment I have.

PM’s sent to those I havent responded to in the last 30 days, sorry for the delay, been extremely busy with work!

Next time you ask a question like that, you should start a poll.

See this thread in player help.

I recommend getting the 1939-1945 Starter, four 1939-1945 boosters, and two Eastern Front boosters, and two North Africa boosters. I found with this game, it’s not terribly fun if you don’t have a variety for pieces for a couple of opposing armies. You’ll broaden your opponent base by having enough stuff to share with an opponent who has no pieces (obviously). The 39-45 stuff is essentially a “greatest hits” collection of pieces from previous sets, so you get some good stuff there. EF has a lot of fun, new, heavy hitting stuff that’s widely unavailable in 39-45. I’d focus on those 2 sets until you have enough stuff to play a good game, where you can diversify armies and not have to pick units over and over because you don’t have enough. If you can’t have 100 points vs 100 points, you won’t be having much fun.

I’ve found that I first started really having fun with this game when I had about 50-60 pieces. Trades rounded out my USA and Germany (the two forces I focused on initially). I’ve got about 1200-1500 pieces now, and in all honesty, nobody needs this many. I got hooked on the collecting aspect of it, and decided “I’ve got all the older pieces, may as well get this whole new set too”… Try and avoid that mentality if you can.

haha, just bought Anniversary. get this, im taking the pieces out of the cases and getting things in their trays ready for gameday this weekend and I turn around and my dog is chomping on the edge of the cover box!!! 100 bucks and the corner of one box is ripped off. what a bummer. (though at least she wasnt munching on the board!)

anywho, im going to get revised this weekend as well. found a cool shop that has all the versions and im going to pick one up each week until I have the complete set!

Hello everyone,

First post. Played my first A&A game as a kid if the late 80’s. Stopped playing in the early 90’s and was re-introduced with the game with the PC version in the late 90’s. Since then i go through phases on interest in little spells once a year. Long lost my PC version (just bought one from Ebay!) and have been in recent times using TripleA.

Anywho I got back in my A&A phase and see so many new developments in the board game (Revised and Anniversary Editions) and just realized a fe minutes ago TripleA has a Revised map but my question at last is there any plans to do a formal PC release of the Revised and even Anniversary editions?

As good as TripleA is, the AI is very week. (which they readily acknowledge as the only option is “Easy AI”) Ive longed for a new PC game not only for the new rules but also tougher AI. The AI can never cope with standard strategy “infantry push mech” and is not very sound with dead zone concepts.

Just wanted to see if anything is in the works.

Also if I may, are there any essays or published strategies for the Revised game? I used to love reading Don Rae’s strategies for the Classic game and would like to find something similar for the Revised version. (which i plan to start playing now)

BTW, what do fans prefer Revised or Anniversary? They look much different, what is kinda the default game for fans these days? Is Classic Dead?

Thanks in advance! Glad I stumbled across the site.
