I got this to keep my 2 boards of Ancient Civilizations of the Inner Sea together. Works really well! I found it a bit tight on those boards but as long as I don't push too much on it, it's fine. Exactly what I needed for that game.

Ive not heard of this boardgame before. Its must of flew under my radar like a vampire bat. I must investigate this game further

I did the KS. Excellent product. Others were a strong clamp. Some had ridges that pressed into the board. These are a solid straight wedge design. So you press to fit and it works well with different thickness boards. If you have a lot of multi board games get these you will be happy.

This is one of the first games I bought as a gamer

I'd really like to know what kind of discrimination you exercised when you decided on that music. Holy f man. The first riff jarred me out of my seat. The clip a few moments later had me mashing mute. Protopunk (or whatever that was) has a very narrow audience. I wonder if you'd have more views if you chose a more broadly attractive jingle. Your content is solid and probably some of the best game videos on yt. Im sure as stubborn as any professor, you'll scoff with a grumble, respond with a snarky quip, and sally forth ignoring my completely unsolicited advice, but hey great video!

Does the notation "4 Activations" on Fraser's formation card refer to the number of Fraser's cards in the Activation deck?

AAAHHH that joke at the end was even more painful than I was anticipating. xD

Is the inability to keep track of IPCs really that big of a problem? Do these folks need chips for monopoly as well?

Come on, promoting plastic chips is a little blow to your trustworthiness. You're better than that. That's the most unnecessary product. 101 hack: Use simple Pokerchips.

The chips was a great idea from Renegade!

Thank you so much for this timely review!

Cody, have you played A&A North Africa, thanks.

Today's joke, I dig it.

🐍.

They’re really nice. Haven’t had a chance to use mine yet, either.

Makes buys better…

Wait so in poker the green ship is worth $25 but in A&A it is $1 Does the anniversary edition still use poker chips for unit count too.?

Great joke at the beginning! Laughed my head off!

Great review of my favourite board game, that in its Day was the most highly selling board game topped in sales only by monopoly. Sad to hear that you didn't love the game as much as I do. Though I think the reason I love this game so much is, as it was a Christmas present when I was about 10. Back in 1982 and I have alot of Christmas memories playing this as a family with my dad and grandad. And driving my dad wild when every time he was escaping outside the wire and I as the Greman security officer, would put on my helmet on then play my shoot to kill card, whilst pointing a toy mp40 at him and say 'For you Tommy zee war is over' and then shoot him lol. As for what you say about a lot ot luck is needed, yes I agree but I feel that this realy reflects the reality of most real escape attempts. So for me personally I think it adds a little realism to the game. But that's just my opinion. Great to see you have a first edition, I have both a first and second edition. The second edition the board comes in four peices and the colours of pows represent, British, Dutch, Polish and French prisoners. Looking forward to seeing more of your videos.

Do these chips have stickers, or are the images “baked” into the chip material? My concern is the stickers could peel off after use

I've been using chips for many years from I Will Never Grow Up Games. They are so much easier to use and track. You don't have to flip through your paper bills to count your money because you can just look at the side of a stack of chips to add them up. That's handy to be able to look around the table to see how much each of the nations have in their bank. Kudos to Renegade Games for bringing A&A into the 21st century with this huge upgrade on the game's accessories. Love your vids, Cody.

I find this to be a great idea, i always disliked the paper currency

What one version of A & A would you recommend if one wanted to try this game system? Never played the game, although I have played a lot of wargames.

First time I have seen your channel, you have a new fan. Very interesting top ten. Can't wait to play some of these games. As an ameuter WW2 historian I've always had a keen interest in war gaming. I'm looking to get more into board games of WW2. I have a couple of questions. First Are there any games about the Burma campaign, secondly my favourite board game that I have played since childhood, I'm now 52 is Escape from Colditz. I have an original second edition and a first edition original. Have you played this? I love this game its so much fun. Anyway great video I look forward to watching more of your videos, Dan from Great Britain.

Thats a chonker! But looks like a great game

I found a copy for $35!

I have Arabian Nights along with 'Agents Of SMERSH' (and it's "Big Book"), the 70s Bond-esque over the top spy game using a very similar system. The solo experiences I had with them were ehh.. so-so. Had more fun playing them with other people. Especially SMERSH which got some laughs out of us regarding how some of the emergent situations turned out.

Looks cool. Was very interested, but the board size kinda kills it for me. Seems like everything will be a bigger footprint than I have table space for. And the small text.

I pre-ordered this game 2 months ago. I hope they release it soon. I never got a chance to play Arabian Nights, but like you, I wanted so much to play it. Super excited!😊

This is the second opening I’ve seen of this game, for me it’s just too much. My main issue with a lot of new board games in recent years is the size of most of them. They put too much, I find the games become too unmanageable and they put them at stupid high prices. I just prefer not getting involved with these type of games

I bought two boxes of the Hit Dice and the IPC Chips

Thanks for making a video on this that wasn't over an hour long!

Thanks for the info! Along with purchasing from Renegade for $40, you can find them cheaper at other FLGS on the internet or locally, just FYI

You still have a great collection

Did you manage to get the crowdfunding extras from the Desert War campaign? It's over on Gamefound and ends on Oct-4th! Thanks for the review, Cody. I'm gonna go with your recommendation on this one and pick it up :)

This game is actually 1-5 players. The app allows one to play solo. Great fun!

This dice is compatible all version of axis and allies ? Even with 1914 and zombie edition ?

What a great idea!

Do you plan on making a review of the new Renegade IPC chips? I am eyeing those, but am reluctant to make such a purchase on speculation a/t/m.

I have 80 of these but they don’t have the numbers on them only the targets. I going to buy these now after watching this video. You just cost me $35!

I just got mine today! I love them.

Cody I love you.

Just received this today! Love them already! The numbers on the dice will help those with color blindness.👍

You shouldn't hit your dice. They may end up hitting their own dice.

Made my own but these are nice. Critical enhancement.

I first I thought dice color matched country color. With the italians having less chance to hit than the germans. That would have been more historically accurate to have such system. It's my main complain about A&A

I opted not to get them when I ordered the Anniversary Edition reprint since I’m fine with using regular dice (and they were a bit pricey). But they do look really cool! Reminds me of the animations from the old A&A video game.

I agree, these hit dice are fantastic. Really like the dice bag that they included as well.

It's 180 degrees laterally.

Ask and you shall receive! Thank you.
