Summary: axis and allies
Comment: Its a great game, only one spends more time splitting up forces to make enough game peices to battle or to place down for purchases, when one buys for new replacements. I called the company and they dont sell more game pieces. This game sucks only because there is not enough battle pieces to play the game. I am forced to buy another game just to enjoy this game! I want to play not spend 20 minutes trying to figure out where to make ends meet to get the game pieces I need. The company could have doubled up on game pieces. THIS IS THE ONLY FLAW IN THIS GAME !

Summary: The Map is Better, the Pieces are Worse
Comment: Just a quick overview for people who may already have the original Milton Bradley game...

1) Yes, the map is much prettier. The various charts and boards are also much more colorful - more pleasing to the eye, but harder to read during play.

2) The pieces are worse. Far worse. (a) You thought the bombers and fighters in the original game were delicate? If you play with people with clumsy fingers, be prepared to move their pieces for them. I'm thinking that to keep these frail pieces intact, I'll have to get one of those trays that gamers use to store miniature figures. (b) The submarine pieces are now so narrow and tiny that they easily topple over, and are more difficult to pick up and move. But yeah, they look more like the actual subs. So if realism is more important to you than playability, you might enjoy this version.

Bottom line? I wonder how much these new components were play-tested. If I had bought it at a store instead of Amazon, I would have returned it already and looked to replace my original game on eBay instead.

Summary: Hours of Fun
Comment: I play and collect all kinds of boardgames. Axis and Allies is one of the best games I've ever played. There's so much strategy and realism to the game. It's amazing how the conflict setup on the map plays out similar to the events of WWII. Really makes you think, really is a lot of fun. But make sure you have set time out to play or you'll be up till 4am... :P

Summary: Excellent Game
Comment: Axis and Allies is a very playable WWII stategy game. The setup time, which I was told could be as long as 30 minutes, only takes about 10 minutes. As a turn-based game, it can seem a bit slow at first as new players are overwhelmed with a multitude of choices that a more experinced player handles with ease. The replay value is immense, and I have enjoyed and will continue to enjoy this game for many years.
