I dont know if this is off on another subject but I wanted to post the results from this weekend……    the Axis have another victory!  Barbarossa on G3. They had better rolls at most of the key battles  A couple of different rolls at a few of the key battles and It would have been diff.    Especially in sea zone 6 for me, Oh well what can ya do. Next time It will be different

I don’t have time for another for now but I will def keep you in mind :)

Hopefully Some new stuff is out by winter season!

@Krychek:

no scrambles if attacks is exactly the same

I straight up copy/pasted!

For Russia …… Slash and burn, move the factory back one spot, then there is nothing for the Axis to Capture.
For China … destroyed!!! anything would have to be rebuild.
For Germany & Japan …damaged, pay for repairs this would also be the fate of the rest of the Axis and Allied Industrial Complexes
  This is just my thoughts on the subject

Well, that’s it for that.  Thought I had enough to wipe out the Russians if they attacked with enough to counter attack…shoulda run a calculator on it…you had 97.9% odds to survive with 2 artillery, all your tanks planes etc.  There’s no way the Axis can recover, they’re too far behind, have been behind the whole game against Russia…

Regame?

I’ll take Axis again, I want to try something anyway.  I am going to assume no scramble with England since no one ever scrambles with England: http://www.axisandallies.org/forums/index.php?topic=23683.new#new

I will play as the axis :)

PM me just to let me know I’m not too late. Cheers

Makes sense for Japan to take it, of course, but it’s strategically and logistically implausible that they will get the DEI for more than one turn and never again thereafter.

More just trying to give more freedom to the players really.  I just don’t want to HAVE to do this battle on one side of the globe because it is one one type before I can do THAT battle on the other side of the globe.

This would effectively remove this while still forcing SBR to go before actual combat.  I think.

In round 501 there is so much equipment on the board that the players, who are not drunk under the table, decide to put some cloths on over their bikini/thong swimsuits and go to a dance club.  Then men will never know, they’re unconscious and why should we women give up a good night of frivolity just because our genetic donors are asleep?

Russia’s up.

@Cmdr:

I have to admit, I really enjoy the idea of closed dardenelles.  I like tech, but life is SOOOO much easier for Russia if Italy cannot attack them directly.

Perhaps, I guess, 1 allied player vs 3 axis players would also balance things.

I also like closed Dardenelles, but my group will never agree to it.  Allies have to make up for it by landing in France turn 1.  Yes, Italy retakes it, but it keeps Italy away from Russia, and with NOs, UK trades 3-6 IPCs for 11.

Imo, # of players makes no difference.  At least wit the people I play with, both Axis and Allies work very well together.  I’ve seen Italy do amazing things.  UK lands in Poland, Italy retakes Poland.

Djensen:

I have been on other sites (namely DnD Online Games and the Star Wars Gaming Club) where a feature is installed on their SMF forums that allows you to go to your last post in a thread.

The feature is great in that it allows you to go to your last post and read all the replies from that point on cutting down on missed replies that might be saying the same thing you want to say or that you might want to rebut in your reply. (Sometimes you go to a thread and think “yea, I was on page 4 last time, so I’ll start there” but your reply was really on page 3 and one or more were posted under it that you don’t see when you go to page 4.)

Any chance of getting that installed here as well?

Jenny, the most humble one! (And Omni-Radiant, as always!!!)

People are welcome to contribute code to enhance MapView, maybe you can get it to meet your needs.  :-D

Mot

I don’t like $10 NO’s, too all or nothing
Russia should have 3 NO’s, each wirth $5
first as normal (red territorries is interesting)
2nd for allies controlling nor/fin
third for euro territorries

USA should have another $5 NO in pacific

sorry I am short on details, perhaps I will post my ideas better when I don’t have house guests  :-P

I like the thread Jen, +1 karma!

Yea, that is an issue, Axis, hehe.  I chase my kids out in winter too, but I’m an evil person  :evil:

Strat? What strat? Just abbuse from game’s bugs and zero playtesting at China and toast them J1 (1941) and J3/J4 (1942)

Larry should make a fix for whole China stuff instead of nerfing Improved Industry tech. If it works (that tech), don’t touch it. If it’s screaming for a fix (China), fix it

you have to build bombers to carry paratroopers and you only carry one of them and that can only be dropped 2 spaces away from friendly forces. The bomber commitment alone precludes the issue of “flying shock armies from buck rogers”.  Unfortunately some feel that you should be able to build and use them w/o bombers and i know 100% that this is a broken game, however, the OOB is somewhat balanced.

but if you feel its not balanced you can impose a “training cost” of 1 or more IPC every time you drop airborne, paid to model training of these elite specialists. Also, limit the build of one airborne per turn ( example: if you build 3 bombers in a turn you only can use 1 additional airborne drop the turn following placement and 1 each following turn for the next 3 turns)

This would preclude the really stupid and impossible idea of Germany building lots of bombers and thinking they will have an immediate Sealion because they didn’t buy anything for 5 turns and all of a sudden spurged on bombers as some kind of trick.

Our 1939 World at war heavy bombers rules.

HB = special units.
Only UK and USA may produce HB. (Avro Lancaster & B29)

Germany may produce HB as tech. dev.

Cost = 18
Att = 4 (two dice for each industrial bombing attack).
Def = 2
Move = 8
