Hello all!

I am in my 30s and live in the US. I first got Axis & Allies Classic 2nd Ed. as a gift when I was a teenager, but I couldn’t usually find people to play with and mostly played against myself until I moved on to other games. By chance, I recently stumbled upon @The_Good_Captain ‘s YouTube videos on Don Rae’s essays and general Classic openings. They inspired me to think more about the game and eventually to find my way here.

I enjoy thinking about unconventional strategies for both sides and am hoping to find other novices to try them out against! I look forward to many losses in the future as I have never had the pleasure of playing someone significantly better than myself in this game. I am also intrigued by the large number of new Axis&Allies versions, which seem to be far more popular than Classic and hopefully have a more robust, established metagame.

Nice to meet you! I am not a very “online” person, so this is all a bit new to me.
