Larry mentioned a gribralter naval base.

I forgot to mention what about a Russian sub is it still there?

It seems to Me that the Japan player isn’t of the greatest skill level. Only a minor factory in mainland Asia?  No wonder the Chinese are killing them. With hardly any new land units coming all India needs to do is hold on from the initial surge and them it and china are in control.  It also seems to me that the allies are going to need to combine their fleets quickly so the uk has enough time to build a strong enough fleet ti repel majority of the attacks the Germans can throw at them. The Russian battleship sounds nice, but once it conducts an amphibious assault I would just put it in the uk fleet. The Italians in the new game sound like they are going to be a very tough nut to crack for the allies.  I think the Americans will probably be left to deal with them after turn two. Any uk units in the are will probably attack the italian fleet. I do hope that the Russians in the east are there at start.

I took some damage tokens from aa50 and use then to mark damage in PAC40

yea i made some and they work well. The only downside is I made mine from paper so the pieces won’t stay in their compartments while the game is put away.

Yea I’ve seen that before and always get a laugh out of it, but he is right Axis and Allies is the most frustrating and complicated game I have ever played. I like the part where he is playing with the bomber.  Honestly, how many time have you found yourself playing like that with a piece on the board.  Here is the link to another video that is pro- AA and mentions that video.

I programmed by TI- 83 calculator to keep track of the IPCs for me.  I even programmed it to track the total amount of money spent and received. I makes it nice because then all we need to do is punch in a few numbers it will do all the tracking for us.  For instance in our games the average income recieved for ANZAC is around 150 if I remember correctly.  If I had a usb to calculator cable i would post the program, but i highly recommend it.

I would hate that if I was losing side my group calls the game as soon as all hope    Is lost. Any longer and the losing side is being tormented and focusing more on our iPhones and iPods.

I mean in all seriousness the game is usually called before all the needed victory cities are captured.

So if really think about it, the fact that no one really plays by the victory conditions,  the end result will all ways be the same as it was in AA50, quit once all hope is lost for a certain side.

Yea I made a banking program for my ti-83 graphing calc. All I need to do is enter the numbers for spent Ipcs and collected ipcs. It will even keep track of the total ipcs spent and recieved. If I had a USB to calc cable I would post here but I don’t.

i will add more details to the plans for the A and a table im going to build

@calvinhobbesliker:

Connect the boards and set up everything and take in the epicness!!!

.  Yep that sounds good

Ok the good aa50 that all of us knows. America doesn’t line up in it and no one complains.

+1

the scale between the two pictures isn’t the same.  If the scall was correct it looks like the everything would line up correctly and look good

Well at least this ends the long time we’ve had of nothing

I second that

For the price of this game and the fact that china is wasted after three turns and France is gone after two three turns they could release it with a larger box and dedicated country boxes.

Well think about it if china is still alive and taking territories after uk has fallen. What does this suggest? I mean really us this a poor axis player because they can’t take out China. Or is the allied player so poor that they can’t see and invasion of the uk coming. Or is the allied player so good that they can keep china    alive or is the axis player so good they can kill the uk very quickly.
