The Axis Strategy is playing the short game because the longer you wait, the more time the Allies have to build.

I usually do a j2 because you can hit the money islands quicker and several more territories

You opted to put the newly purchased industrial complex in french indo China or hong kong. This is not allowed because ic's have to build on territories you own at the beginning of your turn. So kiangsu is the best option to place it.

Like your new map way better than your previous glossy map. Looks really great!

ty for the step by step play. very helpful. AND I wish I had painted your pieces...lol...

You’ve only got a 37.5% percent chance of winning Phi with your current force. The infantry you sent to Kweichow can’t make it there because you had already moved them from Sha to Anh. FYI

My fav would be UK because they are on both sides of the board and there are so many options. Least would be Italy because they are so limited in what they can do. US is fun to play for the same reason as UK. France doesn't really count because they suck balls in G40.

29:08 those soldiers had already been move to attack. I would advice to always use some kind of chip or token to put in each territory you are having an attack, to avoid this mistake.

You have to own the territory from the beginning of your turn in order to place an industrial complex there.

'United states doesn't give a shit about Russia' hahaha love the historical accuracy.

Where did you get that map, the red units and industrial-naval bases minis from? Thanks in advance.

Helo Handgrenade! This map you're playing on, could you please tell me where I can find that file so I can print it? Or is there a better one regarding this is an older video:) Thanks in advance

Hi. Can you conduct convoy operations against powers that you are NOT at war with? If you do a convoy attack against the UK Pacific for example, it seems that would not trigger war with the UK or others. Is this a correct interpretation ? In WW2, convoys were attacked before their countries were at war. Also, convoy calculations are made in collect income phase, not the combat phase. Thanks very much. Steve

General. First discussion of America not being pulled into war if UK is attacked was correct but second mention seemed too definitive the other way. Just to be strait, JP attack on UK or ANZAC gives US an excuse to declare war on their next Turn......if they want to.....but they dont have to. Tef

Hi, many thanks for that review. What version of game do you have? Also, is that a commercial game board available for purchase?

Mr Handgrenade, I dig your video, thanks for posting! I have to ask though, why are you bothered by the idea of Japan invading the Soviet Union? You cited history, but isnt the fun of playing AA 1940 the chance to change history?

ok, getting addicted here. holding off til next week

what do you think about taking Honolulu on J1 instead? Technically it's really possible

Nice vid again! The Japanse infantry cannot reach into keichow. You moved them from shantung into anhwe. And then from anhwe into keichow so they moved 2 spaces which is not allowed.

Great video. I have a few questions. Mick B Great video. Thank you. I have a few questions. 1. If Japan invades French Indo-China will that bring the allies into the war? 2. What if UK and or ANZAC declare war on Japan, in rounds 1 or 2, would that subsequently bring America into the war? 3. Can America ‘liberate’ the Dutch territories? Say UK takes Celebes but looses it to Japan. If America captures it, does Celebes revert back to UK control or is it now an American territory?

great video. question - what is your favorite power and your least favorite power to play. mine is the US and France

General, I know this was made a while ago, but a few rules were broken in this video. I am not criticizing, just letting you know so you can get better 😉

General I'm a new player and I have a question. Can I stop a Transport with full load on a SZ and not move it for the next turn. And after that, at the other turn move it again?

Mr. Handgrenade, i typically end up building a port in Hainan as Japan. What are your thoughts on the merits and cons of building one there?

Handicaps: Japanese oil field -Borneo Has 5 turns to control it Without it all mechanized units -1 movement ability. Watch what happens

Ayy, I'm playing in BC too, Axis ftw, Canada is mvp on real world map tho. Japan is my fav

what setup is this????? its nothing like the one on the backs of the boxes

Why does Solomon islands have a New Zealand roundel?

I have maybe a weird question. Is naval an air combat only limited to one round of combat? I thought I saw this somewhere and in a video but I'm not sure. me and my friends have been playing for a couple months now and have only played by that rule and I'm not even sure if it's a rule or not. It would be awesome with your clarify this for us, thanks!

Where do you get your flying stands?

where do you get those things to put under the airplanes?

That is horrifying how good that strategy is for aaa pacific

How do you get all of the awesome stands for the planes? Im a monk at a monastery and am getting killed by the Allies, the superior is a Chess fantatic. I don't know what to do with Japan, and could really use some help with Global. I don't know if I should attack with Japan on the first round, or wait until my infantry are in a better position for the United Kindgom (East). IN Germany, I followed your advice, I didn't take out his transport, because he scrambled against my two subs and killed them both. I really need help, is there anyway, you would be willing to help me walk through this? What should my non combat moves be with Japan for round 1? Attack the Chinese on my way to Hunan? Move ships down to the money islands to where they are quickly able to be taken in round 2? Again, I could use your help, I am 0-2 against the Superior of the Benedictine Community i'm in. He has a helper, who is from our motherhouse in Scotland, who he runs ideals past, and I'm left without a fellow strategist. I could use your help. By the way, one of our monks is from Canada! :)

Hey, where did you get that map???

Your kiewchow attack is supper illegal lol how did your infantry make it to a country two spaces away? On turn one??

Good video and breakdown. I also post Axis & Allies videos, maybe we can do a collaboration sometime. I post TripleA videos as my brother keeps the board with him haha If you don't know about TripleA it is a free download game which is just an exact copy of Axis & Allies and has most maps and rule sets.

Hey quick question so I own HBG global 1939 game should I get a bunch of accessories and expansion packs for that or get the 1936-1945 game and get less accessories

Nice video i am a litle bit amazed that peope at forst thought iT was wise to do nothing as Japan, since in most axis and allies game it’s better to attack everything as early as possible as axis and also allies

Thanks for all the videos! I'm in Victoria and looking for players if you know of any?

You don't attack the US fleet. On J1?

Am I allowed to place an Industrial Complex on a territory that I just conquered?

cant place a factory in a space you took this round

J1 , in my humble opinion, leaves Japan dangerously spread out. As the allies player on that side of the board I tend to start sinking the Japanese fleet earlier. By the time the US shows up the Japanese fleet is already smaller. Easy pickings then.When playing Japan, I also only attack the $ islands on my way back to defend Japan with a full navy plus additions.My Japanese navy is quite often double the size of the US fleet. The US navy then becomes the prey. Factories bought on the first two turns take care of China and later the UK. When the US navy is gone I move south once again but never out of range of Tokyo. I ignore the ANZAC unless they get too close for their own good. If they do....squish. Same for the UK Pac. fleet if there is one. Anyway great videos!

US gets 52 instead 72? What? How?

👍🏻

Anyone every encounter allied players building minor facilities on Philippines and Hawaii t1?

25:37 Can't they attack Hawaii?

Haaaa!!!!! Gemhadar and Changelings are Alpha Quadrant. Borg are, or used ti be in Delta Quadrant. 😜

Nane of this board game , where to buy

My 2 favorite nation is japan 1 is germany cuz land supramacy german navy is shit cuz you can build only 2 BB's buut you can build em cruisers

Dude, there is a chinese territory you are attacking with 2 infatry and 2 planes you cant reach on turn 1!

Excellent video, shouldn’t Japan attack Hawaii and make. It a major Japanese base? Has anybody tried it?

You made all kinds of mistake. Putting a chip on hunnan and then putting an illegal infantry on it instead of replacing the chip, moving infantry 2 times. I have a different opening move was just checking yours. I hate China when taking out all the allies because China will pump out infantry and it makes you unable to buy much against the USA. And unable to attack Russia. So the indies become very important. Also Japan needs so many factories slurping up their income. Also I don't understand why sealion would be endangered by Japan doing pearl harbor and taking Philippines. I don't do borneo J1. If the USA goes KGF Japan will win the game. I'd like to see a viable USA round 1. One where the USA spends little on Japan. To do pearl harbor I normally send the J fleet to wake and use 3 fighters 3 tac bombers and 1 strategic bomber and block sacrificing a destroyer so the US sub can't submerge. And if he takes in the 2 fighters on Hawaii they die. He can't retaliate. The fleet can move Caroline and join to attack the indies. This game is much about threat instead of actually making a move. Midway is also an option but makes moving indies so lagging. Plus the USA can retaliate if he keeps his 2 fighters on Hawaii. I have never done the Africa core. Always use 3 transports with Germany to rush to leningrad tho no shipyard in Germany sucks if you want to keep pressure on all sides. Those 3 transports make rushing Russia alot faster. But no africa. Also they defend Scandinavia if Russia thinks that is a good route. And there is way too much income for Russia to earn in Finland let alone Norway too. Going Africa gives Russia room to breathe which I dislike. Anyway thanks for making these interesting videos.

Lol star trek joke
