@Screamer hope you do soon.
I have set up and run 2 Turns , but had to pack it up .
Will try again soon.

@simon-tressel Enjoy!

Let’s take a break from 1914 then. Thanks for the games everyone.

Alrighty, I take ze Reich. My turn will follow later this day.

@Driel310 thanks for explaining.
Looks like we were all unlucky , here in Europe, because of a naval transportation problem.
I was almost eating my hands , I was so impatient to receive mine!

@abworsham4

That is a lot of money. Yes, in Netherlands the original Axis and Allies and Shogun both were pretty expensive.
And Fortress America? All we could do was look at the small picture at one of the sides of the Axis and Allies box and imagining what this game was and was about?

Remember: these were the pre-Internet years…

Enjoy, my friend.

France - Colt.
Spain- Seb.
Sweden- Matt.
The Turks- Witt the Elder.

@CWO-Marc said in WW2 Generals’ November birthdays:

Along similar lines: General Joseph E. Johnston, who had surrendered his forces to General William Tecumseh Sherman in the last days of the Civil War, died just a few weeks after Sherman. He had attended Sherman’s funeral and had kept his hat off during the proceedings (despite the cold and rainy weather) as a sign of respect to his former adversary; he caught a cold as a result, and it developed into pneumonia.
True Marc. I also remembered that they, too, were born in the same month. Was February, actually, but 13 years apart. Funny.

I would be overwhelmed with excitement had I seen this plane in flight.

PP’s Allies have retired hurt. You cannot trust witt to make the mistakes you are hoping for! :x

If only we had had you commanding our forces and not FM Haig. The  war would have been over so much sooner. What were the Germans even thinking? Shame the game gets it wrong and allows amphibious assaults so easily. In reality, see Gallipoli, landing amphibiously was nigh impossible .
