I really need to think how I could crack your fortress! :|

Definitely.  Please ping me whenever you want to have another game.  Next time perhaps I can show you some new Allies Tactics to prove Allies still have an edge  :lol:

http://www.axisandallies.org/forums/index.php?topic=35042.0

Sure I can use Axis this time but do give me chance in later game trying Allies again - I need to try a few more different strategies to see how it works ; -)

Sure I will start one shortly.  I like to explore more different Allies strategy too.

Sure, I’m ready again

I concede : -(….There is no way I can come back with the amount of infantries you stack in Germany.

Well played!  It’s really hard to fight against you now :x

When you are ready for next game let me know…

Very nice!  I have never been in Sweden.  Would love to check out some day.

Let me start one in minute…

You will have good chance to get revenge… :-D  I will start one soon.

Pardon me - I made one start experiment and it was disastrous… and here comes the correct start. :lol:

In this edition, there are 2 winning conditions: 1 is by winning additional 3 victory cites (so total number of victory cities increase by 3 compared to beginning set up; another way is to conquer all victory cities by end of US turn.  Which one would you like to play against?

Thank you so much for explanation.  It is very clear now.

I was curious about that, if a new carrier deck is purchased and will be dropped in the sea zone during the unit placement phase. Thanks for the clarification

Yes - I saw you and tease’s battle - that was huge sea battle!  Seems like you are gaining edge.

And it was great playing with you.  Ping me any time if you like to play again (or other variance of 42) :-D

Cheers.

Sure - actually 2nd edition works almost the same as 1st edition - no research - but with the following exception:

1. Factory comes with AA by default
2. Each AA gun shots up to 3 fighters Max.
3. Price of tank is 6 instead of 5.

I think these are main difference.  Others are pretty much the same.  The map is quite different though.

I will set one up.  have fun :)

Sure, launch another game when you’re ready. I’ll play the axis again then!
