I would love to play against you.  We only did it once on a whim…and we were drinking…but it was interesting.  Ive acxtually never played against someone online.  How would that work?

Yes, we played that the allies could “dump” units into Russian territory all of the 5 turns before russia would go active.

This may have been done already, but Im not sure.  Looking past any historical inaccuracies at the start of the game, My roomies and I and have fond a fun way to play. 
Lets say history was different and Russia was not attacked by germany (becasue of the 5 yr(This is how we played it) non aggression pact and they also could attack japan(which actually happened). 
My room mates and I played a game where russia could not attack Jap and Ger, nor BE attacked by jap and ger.  They also only collected 50% of the IPC’s they would have collected (this way they dont build up massive forces unchecked.
So after turn 5 it turned into a normal game of A&A.
it was rellay fun and the axis came REALLY close to taking UK on turn 3, and the japanese were taking it to the US pretty good, but then russia came into the fray and turned the tide.

thoughts?

yeah, ive tried something like this and it went pporly.  like…japan taken in a under 10 turns poorly.

I disagree…surender i your only option…

one questions….what?

trying your strategy, had a bid of 21 to me.

We are fairly new to the whole “bid” thing, so maybe we jsuthavent figured it out yet.

wow…so you use Japan as your main battle force huh?

agreed but its hard to find the perfect bid I think.  If you bid TOO high it can get out of control and germany could just put 8 tanks in easter europe and pretty much march unimpeded into russia.
