Later Germany also took Caucasus, which had the industrial complex, and had been heavily defended throughout most of the game. That big battle was a big blow to USSR, killing off many Russian tanks, and USSR immediately got on the defensive. I had been careful in the positioning of my German troops, in pushing my infantry forward, and in preserving my tanks as much as possible. USSR had some initial successes, but Germany won one big battle, using its big stack to kill off USSR's big stack. USA only sent forces to Africa once and after that ignored the African theatre to concentrate on Europe. Germany's excursion into Africa was slow but steady. USA mostly ignored Japan in the Pacific and both UK and US concentrated on preparing to attack Germany.

It was a good game, but unfortunately I didn't take any photo. We started at 11:30pm, explaining the game took some time, and we finished at 5:30am. That's how keen we were.Īctually I was so anxious for some Axis & Allies action, I asked Simon (who has played many games with me but is in no way a gamer, and has never played anything like Axis & Allies) to play with me when he was in KL, on.

We planned for this session about one month beforehand. Since neither of us had it yet, we decided to play the 2004 edition, to at least temporarily quench our thirst. We both planned to buy the Axis & Allies Anniversary Edition which just came out end of last year, and were keen to play it.

On when Han came to play, our main course was Axis & Allies, the 2004 edition, which is also called Axis & Allies Revised.
