When it comes to naval bases/ ports how will these be handled when it comes to takeover. Does one simply control the seazone that its in or do you have to launch an amphibious assault on the adjacent territory in order to capture it?

I read this a while back, I forgot which Forum. Anyways is it true that if naval ships move from a naval base/port that they gain a move of 3?

Try playing aganist yourself then you have a challenge. :lol:

True, especially when it comes to attacking a capitol, have the enemey spend more IPC on repairs rather than forces

Thanks for the advice… As far as ANZAC forces are concerened I think its a great addition to the game but I just might suggest the U.K. player controlling ANZAC forces, unless there is a person who wants to play in the game but dosent want to controll large armies?

It has never worked out for me playing as the U.S. If I attacked Europe Japan ends up invading Alaska and all hell breaks loose. If I attacked in the Pacific (which I usually do) Russia tends to fall and my U.K. buddy can never handle Germany (he isn’t good). Finally when I tried to balance both theatres my carriers in the Pacific were destroyed before I could launch an offensive and in Europe I always encounter a failed D-Day. Never could establish a foot hold in Europe, while at the same time fight the Japanese in the Pacific (unlike history).

That may be true in just the AAP40 version; However, in the global version how is the U.S. economy going to look? If its still strong it’s going to come down to the U.S. to decide what he or she wants to do. Attack Europe full power, attack the Pacific full power or try to balance both theaters out.

I agree. I’m probably the only one that does this, but I like repeating history when it comes to Axis and Allies. So for me I just make my own house rules and what not to make it seem more historically accurate. I usually come up with ideas from what you guy post on here.

What would be really intresting would be an Atomic bomb rule, but I guess with tournaments and stuff it would be too big of an advantage. Not to mention complicated

Really Japan may only have to watch out for just the U.S. and China. From what I’ve read the ANZAC player will only have an IPC count of less than 15. With that much money I dont think you would be able to build up a powerfull navy to challenge the Japanese. The U.K. has India and other territories yes but unless it has an Industrial Complex built on them, its going to be hard for the British player to re-enforce Southeast Asia. So if this stands true and there isn’t a bold Russian player then maybe the Japanese player can just worry about the U.S. and China.

I know thats right. I took a break from Axis and Allies and when i finally started playing again i had just missed AA50. This times going to be different though ima make sure i snag one copy of this game. Im pretty sure everyone here will as well after all none of us dont want to end up paying $200 for it on ebay.

You would think that as long as these games have been out they would’ve tried advertising by now.

Ya i would agree after all AA 42 is only $29.99. Well guess i better pre-order it i do not wanna risk this game being a limited edition deal.

Just like AA 50 you can already pre-order this game online or buy it when it comes out. Does anyone know if this game will be available at stores such as Target like AA 42?
