What are you guys doing ?

The Allies can’t lose :-D, you just park aircraft over the central city and annihilate anything that tries to get into it.The other two cities are either swamped by the British , or cut off by the Americans….

he probably meant an $80 purchase LOL!

So does anyone want to participate in a 5 player play by forum game ? :mrgreen:

Death !

LOL!!!

AD&D ! I used to play and run that years ago !

First edition was okay in its day, but ‘Feats’ RULE!!, 3rd edition all the way… (I’m not hearing a lot of good comments about 4.0 apparently its just being made to make money for wizards, they’ll stop making stuff for 3.5 , forcing gamers to shell out hundreds of pounds for new books, and its all apparently geared towards getting people to use the minatures… AD&D is now a business more than ever… not much room for roleplayers in it anymore ! :cry:)

…sure the system falls apart at about 15th lvl+ and ‘Epic’ is completely unplayable, but at low to mid level its a lot of fun and your characters get tons of options., I could never go back to playing first… no way.

I guess that rather than spend my time trying to convince one or two other people that ‘my plan is the best’ I would rather spend my time trying to outwit a single opponent in a game of tactics and skill, something that is lost when you are arguing with the ‘rabble’ over whether to attack germany or reinforce russia.

For me, whether it is an accurate reprsentation of WWII or not, I get more fun out of the game in a one on one situation, rather than ordering or being ordered about .

Maybe it’s because my main opponent and I are pretty evenly matched, and taking on another player is a handicap that neither of us would look forward to, Among the gamers I know , any game with three people playing the Allies would be an automatic Axis victory, perhaps it’s different if you have opponents who are happy to co-operate with one another… but if that is the case, it’s like playing against one opponent anyway ! :wink:

@Imperious:

The game is for 5 players or the intent is to have 2 teams of players each with different ideas competing to create the same result. Thats why i like the game.

Who said that ?  :-o

I’ve been playing One on One for over a year !, and it’s immense fun coming up with new plans and ideas, If you ask me playing with more players swings the game heavily in favour of the axis… since Japan and Germany don’t have to co operate half as much as the allies do… and the people I know have egos that won’t let them take a back seat , so if three of them are playing the allies they will be arguing over a course of action, or all doing their own thing…

A game for five players ?  I don’t think so…!  :-P

LOL  !!!

Look at these results !!!

I’m loving it !! :-D

“Excellent shot Carstairs, got the blighter right between the torpedo tubes…”

“Thank you Hornby…Hun deserved it… Totally unsporting launching an attack on us like that…”

The Germans refuse to give in…

(Germany loses another sub and the transport… there won’t be any ‘sea lion’ stunts now, …but the russians press on, drunk on victory …and vodka !!)

Who are you?

I’m a die hard Axis and Allies fan looking for an online game, I may need a pointer regarding ‘bidding’ , but otherwise I am fully capable of thrashing the living daylights out of some poor soul, and driving his retreating units into the sea (That should be an option…  :-D)

What do you want ?

I would like to play an online game , I’m only active thursday to sunday, so it would get the most attention across that period.

I see that there are a few Babylon 5 fans around here, so maybe they would like to engage the shadow forces one more time…

Weeerrreee Baacckk!! :mrgreen:
