      @beelee I think I've seen that forum before and it looks kinda busier than this forum but this dev forum is best 🙂

      Hey, that forum, they play the same TripleA game that we play here right?

      I ask because I actually found a different Axis and Allies game years ago and it was very different and more like an arcade game and I'm sure I wouldn't find it again unless its the game for that other forum?

        agree with @beelee and @Captain-Crunch this is the main base of triplea. Other sites promoting the use of this software are just a bit further away from the actual triplea player base and maybe more board-game version centric sites.

        would be the forums to search here at the home site. 🙂

          I like it better over here too :). Not that there's anything wrong with that place but ...yea they play triplea. Mostly global 40 or a mod of it. Lots of FTF boardgamers there too. A few are playing the new 42 on steam but it's still in beta mode.

          @Brent-Stoudt
          I missed the tourney link. Seems as if one is usually going on. If nothing else you should be able to get a game when the next one starts.

              It's a A&A map. One of the earlier ones. It came out earlier this year. The computer version. Triplea World War II V4 is similar I think. Idk. i get confused by all of them.

                Actually v4 is similar to the boardgame "Spring 1942", a game issued in 2009, that followed v3-rules, but is simpler than Anniversary.

                v5 is similar to "1942 2nd Edition", issued in 2012, the current basis game of A&A.

                A&A 1942 Online, issued this year by Beamdog, is an online variant, basically based on the game and ruleset of 1942 2nd Edition, but with differences.

                Don't always trust TripleA when it comes to rules questions. Know the rules before you start … and better check what TripleA has done.

                    @Captain-Crunch Yes, Anniversary is from 2008 and was reprinted in 2017.

                      @Captain-Crunch No, Axis&Allies didn't exist in 1958. The 50-year anniversary is of Avalon Hill, owned by Wizards of the Coast, in turn owned by Hasbro. Also Avalon Hill had nothing to do with with any original Axis & Allies boardgames (like first and second edition Classic, published by Milton Bradley).

                        @Cernel Haha, indeed, I didn't even think about this possible understanding of the 50th Anniversary.
                        I was reflecting to the time back in 2008, cannot believe that it is almost 12 years since Anniversary has been released.
