Very interesting to see this opened up. My friends from high school and I have played A&A together since middle school. Every time we get the chance to meet up since college, we play some version of A&A. We're so used to playing against each other and know regular strategies, that we usually try strange things in our games to see if they'll work. Even after a little over 10 years of playing with them, I still have fun every time.

@@BoardGameNation I remember the game, because I played it quite extensively with neighborhood friends. I also remember it was the most expensive board game that I ever purchased -- like $59 or so new. That was pretty expensive back in the mid 80s. Especially for something that had no electronics. I figure what...15% costs to produce, and 85% intellectual property profit margin? I wonder what the store paid for it before marking it up to $59? And you're right. The molded plastic pieces looked of the same type used in models that you glue together. They had really good detail for their size.

If the sea combat ends with the sea zone classified as "friendly" to the attackers, the transports lands, offloads the troops, and they conduct combat. The types of troops or their origins don't matter. Hope this helps!

I still have my original 1981 copy. It's not in mint original condition because I opened it and played it as a teenager, but all the pieces are there. I never saw it in a store. I only knew about the game because I saw it advertised in a brochure from another Avalon Hill bookcase game. You had to order it by mail, which took a few weeks. It is made of Acid paper, so unlike paper products made today from Alkaline, it will "Yellow" over time once unsealed. It's crazy to see this original game being sold on Ebay on rare occasions for $1,000. Best of luck with your game.

This is really neat. I was surprised to see Spain and Sweden considered pro-German neutrals, and it appears Iraq and Iran are pro-British, with Mexico and some others as pro-American neutrals given the shading. Here I thought it was an innovative and creative new system added in the 1940 games, but apparently it was one of Larry's original ideas that just got left by the wayside until he brought it back.

I dug a little into this version and I discovered that sheets were printed for French and Chinese units as well, but Nova evidently sold out before it could publish any additional rules for incorporating these nations into the game. It seems that was another early idea of Larry's that was finally seen in the newer versions.

Exactly. It will show any changes from the 1942.2 (ie, Carrier take two hits) and all the new stuff (At War, Mongolian Rule, etc). Everything else folks can find in the 1942.2 video. So, for example, if a viewer doesn't understand the idea of Offshore Bombardments. The difference video won't explain that because the rules are the same between the two games. They will need to go to the 1942.2 or other more specific video we have made on the topic. Does that make sense?

Board game nation can i do that in axis allies g40 version I start game in 1939 with each round meaning 6 months of actual time ipcs will be based on ipc value of land territory of nations and instead of following setup nations will start with no army on board they can buy and place armies anywhere in their home nation no non combat move and no mobilization before going to war but after going to war units can be placed only in territories with factories and then non combat and mobilization will be allowed Is this good idea Love from India

@BoardGameNation Жыл бұрын
First, you bought the game. You can do whatever you'd like as long as everyone playing agrees to the same rules. Starting with no units on the board creates an entirely new dynamic to the game. I would be curious how that would play out. I'm guessing there are some strategies that might break the game if a player could buy whatever they want and declare war whenever they want. Considering the IPC generation starts in the Axis favor, I would imagine giving them several turns of Collect Income phases before any combat was declared would also be an issue. Interesting idea! With a few tweaks, it might be fun! Here is another idea along those lines: Add up the value of all the units on the starting cards and give that many IPCs to the corresponding player. Players then take turns placing units in their territories or adjacent sea zones until they run out. Then, start the game as normal. Have fun!

"So, you know how to play 1942.2? This is what you need to know to play 1940." Lay out the rules differences without rehashing everything in the 42.2 video. Would that be helpful?

While the Swastika isn't used on the roundels in the classic Milton Bradley version, it IS depicted on the box in what appears to be a Kriegsmarine flag. I'm not sure what the laws in Germany permit but the Milton Bradley version might have been banned too, or they might have had to make a special box without the Swastika for sale in that country.

I appreciate your confidence. Here's the trick: nearly everything in the 1942.2 rules video will transfer over to Global. A "difference" video would be much shorter (and easier to produce) if it can refer players back to the giant rules video for 1942.2. It took months to make that video and it the idea of re-making all the examples and explanations for a game that has the same basic rules makes me want to pull out what is left of my hair. :) I'm traveling to a A&A event this weekend, hoping to come how with a ton of Global content. We will see how it all shakes out.

I appreciate that! We are definitely giving that some thought. Do you feel comfortable with 1942 Second Edition? If so, made a video explaining the differences would be helpful. What do you think?

I'm hoping to start publishing more content in September. I am also planning a new interview with Larry Harris in mid-August that we try to put out as quickly as possible. Lots great stuff in the hopper... but first, I have to finish up the renovation so that I have a place to live!

Ive never minded swasticas inn ww2 games its the flag they used so id rather it than some weird fake flag.

To each their own, but in my opinion the swastika is still a very active symbol of hate that for some is a source of pain and to others is rallying point for acts of violence. I understand that it is historically accurate in a WW2 and other feel differently, but I would rather not spend my free time playing with them. Now, if I went to a friend's place to play and he had them on the board used appropriately, I wouldn't make a big deal about. It just isn't something I would include in any game I host. Thanks for watching!

Tell Shannon to make an email for 901 games, so I can email him about axis and allies and some of his stock at his store, I can't call him, cus it would be long distance:( if that's possible it would be fantastic! But totally understand if not.
