Ok, Two years to late:

Title: Russians need less vodka :-)
Date: July 26, 2013
Special Rules: NOs, tech, China Free mod 0.1
Victor: Axis won by taking moscow
Game Length: 5 hrs
Bias: I don’t think so
Description:
Allies: Adopted a Kill Japan First (KJF) strategy. The American fleet dominated the pacific. The british fleet (from outside gibraltar together with the transport from south africa) was also present in the pacific. In the end Japan had only Tokyo and French Indochina/thailand (which would fall the coming turn to the allies).
Axis: Because Allies totally left Germany alone, it went all out towards Russia, together with italy. It was too much, and Russia fell turn 4 or 5 or sth.
Observations/Recommendations: Perhaps China Free mod is too good for the allies (although they lost Japan really had no chance once the allies focused). Never leave Germany alone :-) Perhaps the KGF tactis is better.

Me and my brother have played AA50 at least 20-30 times (sometimes with friends, sometimes with relatives, and sometimes on our own). It is our experience, that it is very hard/impossible for the axis to conquer ottawa, san francisco and washington. We were thinking the following: Why not add more victory cities, or change the position of the current? Either you add cities like cairo, johannesburg, and Belgrad (saw that one on another site), or you simply change ottawa to johannesburg and san francisco to rio de janeiro. This would spice up the game more :-)

What do you think?
