@LHoffman:
Playing with so many people cannot possibly lead to a fun game. There would be 7 people at any given time messing around and not paying attention to the game and turns would just take even longer. In this case, there is such a thing as too many people. I’d say a max amount of players for a fun game would be 6 or maybe 7. Having 5 or 6 might be ideal though. It seems like it would take a while for only 2 people to play this game.
I have 9,sometimes 10 if someone brings a guest, players and we get through games fine. If you have immature people than yes but we are all very patient so we get through games quick. I have 1 AA50 2 AA42 2 AA original 1 AARE and 1 of BotB DDay and Guadacanal. I have almost every axis and allies game and we have to group off. This will eb the first time we can all play!!!
