You probably figured it out by now but the card deck was a missprint. It's weird how the printing company would print most decks properly but somehow manage to get a few wrong. You'd think it would be all good or all bad. Sorry for the mishap.

I haven’t watched your full video yet but when the opportunity presents I LOVE buying a minor IC with Germany in Greece, for exactly the reasons you said. The thing that makes it dominant (but costly) is to add an airbase. It allows a huge amount of flexibility for German or Italian air, plus protects fleet if you need to tuck in you forces away from a combined US/UK fleet off Gibraltar, which in a longer game is a near certainty. Most games this money is better spent on other material, but if you find yourself getting the upper hand in that region it presents a ton of options.

Haha, unfortunately, that is correct. Historical Board Gaming sells their game as just the map to play on and all the player aids. It is a good idea to use Axis and Allies 1914 pieces since it is a similar game in so far as the style of the game which will take care of most of the playing components, but then building out the rest of the game takes lots more money and time! Great game in my opinion, but surely one that cannot be purchased in a single day. I have slowly upgraded my game from colored chips to units over the course of a few years

Nice video! I like tech, as long as it doesn't tilt the game. The tech in GW36 is a good system, as you can see what might happen before it does, and you can prepare. Just FYI: the AA dice to happen as a First Strike in battles, but not in Strat bombing, just to be confusing. I'm in the middle of a remote G40 game with a guy who is way better at it than I am, but that's the best way to get better! Italy is boxed in, but Japan just captured Calcutta, and my IJN is keeping a massive USN at bay...for now. He has done a masterful job at protecting Moscow, so I am sort of playing defense on the Eastern Front, as he doesn't have a lot of punch, and I can feed infantry into the area for cheap. Good video - subbed!
@EliteGolden2 ай бұрын
Thank you so much for the view and the comment, Hilltop Pillbox! I have found that my technology house rule does tilt the game, but proportionally to the way the game was already going. What I mean by that is if a nation is collecting a lot of money, then they get to roll a lot of tech so it speeds up the game in favor of those who have more money and are presumably already closer to victory. I still have A LOT of playtesting before it comes close to being more balanced, but I rationalize the pitfall as speeding the game up where one side can more easily snowball to victory instead of being forced to slog out an already lengthy game. Thanks for the rules clarification, I have so many rulebooks in my head between all the Axis and Allies titles, Global War 1939, '36, and '14 I may never get through a game perfectly! Your remote game sounds like a fun one for sure especially with tipping points about to take place on both sides where Russia is holding and the Americans are at bay, very interesting! I always love to hear how games go for others and what strategies work or do not go so well. Perhaps the path to victory for you in that game lies in the Pacific with the loss of the FEC and the dormant nature of the US. If you are wanting to get a game in and are looking for another player, just give me a shout!
@TheHilltopPillbox2 ай бұрын
@@EliteGolden Interesting thoughts. I think the main reason tech works so well in GW36 and GW39 is simply the D12 system. By increasing attack or defense by 8.5%, it's not game-breaking. A 16.7% shift can be. Yes, the G40 game I'm in right now is compelling. He is a stronger player, to be sure, as I play every version out there and haven't focused on getting strong on any specific one. I understand the troubles with multiple rule books swirling around your head! The U.S. isn't "dormant", per se, just having to pause and reconsider, now that I lured him to Johnson Island (no port) and have a massive fleet in the Carolines. He can't attack, and I really can't attack him when he returns to Pearl. But, the longer that stand-off goes, the more Japanese tanks rip around the Middle East and (hopefully) into the USSR. If you are interested, please send me an email at [email protected] and let me know when you are available. I have another guy on the line wanting to do a GW39 game in September, so that might work. Let me know! I'm off to Italy tomorrow until August, so I won't be putting any content out, but feel free to leave me an email, and I will catch up when I return. Cheers!

The Allies did a great job capitalizing on the unfortunate situation MP7 found himself in after each round.

Are there any thoughts on balance? After a few games it feels like the Allies have an advantage. The games the centrals have won had everythinggo right for them at the end, but playing a long game just to try and get lucky at the end, or basically throwing the game with high risk/reward move early feels not fun. Anyways I'm sure I could have it all wrong. Any thoughts?
@EliteGolden6 ай бұрын
I have only played two games and neither lasted past 1916, but my thoughts on balance for the game is that the game is very Entente weighted. I think the game tries to make up for that fact by handing so many of the random events to the Central Powers, but those do not make or break the game especially when you can plan for certain ones in advance to mitigate the possible effects. The Central Powers can do well enough in the beginning, but with enough coordination, the advances on all fronts can be ground to a halt. Even if the Central Powers got Japan and Italy on their side, I think that would not be enough to win. Funny enough Japan going Central Powers feels like a death sentence since the USA climbs in income so much faster with every action the Japanese take. An extremely fun game all in all though, and perhaps my playgroup was playing with too many WW2 strategies, but until I can find a decent Central Powers strategy I think that the Entente will reliably win.

Thank you for the comment about the technology, I also like when players can just receive the ability to go for tech rather than seek it out for money. When that burden is put on the players I find that they will almost never go for technology. As for the reason there was no aggressive Japan or naval battle, that can be chalked up to Japan wanting to face one challenge at a time. I almost always go for a defeat of China first (which has its pros and cons) then turn to India and the USA. I am currently beginning to record another gameplay video so perhaps I will make Japan a bit more aggressive just to see how Japan with the tech rules plays out against the Allies. Maybe Japan will get some good luck on naval tech!
