5 Russian Openings - Axis and Allies 1942
As this video about a wonderful historical game is being published, the real life, modern day nation of Ukraine is under attack. Led by a power hungry and delusional Russian dictator that has filled his people with lies, the Russian military has brutally killed thousands and displaced millions in a backward attempt to restore the long fallen USSR. Board Game Nation believes in the principles of democracy and national sovereignty and that those that violate these principles of peace must be condemned and resisted with every possible means.
We sincerely hope that the viewers of this video understand the context of the content and know that we stand firmly with the people of Ukraine in their continuing fight against the Russian aggressors.
