So do I. But only the original version. The newest one sucks.

Axis and allies is better than Risk because it's more like a real war and there is less luck invloved. It takes more strategy than Risk and you can't go suicidal and win like in Risk you can.

Not better, just different. I personally prefer A&A because I like the additional elements of strategy - air and sea power, counterattacks, etc. If it was A&A v. purely classical Risk, I'd probably say A&A. But this is Conquer Club, and it is significantly better than purely classical Risk. So... not better, just different.

Axis

Allies is a lot better than Axis! If I'm Great Britain I can't be beat! Axis is only ok if you can be Germany. Japan sucks!

On my PC version I win playing Axis or Allies. Guess I have played it too much and now its boring to play vs. computer as victory is always achieved.

wtf is Axis and Allies ??

A WWII based game. Started out a board game. 5 Nations (2 Axis, 3 Allie). Simular to Risk but more types of troops from infentry, tanks and fighter planes to Bombers submarines and battleships.

Yeah, The 2 axis countries are Germany and Japan. They have the advantage in the beginning if they can achieve a swift victory. Otherwise the Allies(England, America, and Russia) have the advantage

cheers, i was a bit lost lol

Give me the japs any day

Absolutely - I've never lost as the Japs. They are ridiculously strong... my friends started handicapping me every time I played Japanese.

The Japenese are only good in the original Axis and Allies. If you play the revised you have to play them perfect or you will lose.

Does anyone Know of any Axis and Allies online game clubs?

Possibly so... I'm not sure if I'm familiar with "revised" Axis and Allies. Can you clarify what the difference is?

My question is:

When, if ever, do you go for the weapons advancements?

Personally, I only go for them when I'm guaranteed a win and just "mopping up", but if there is some strategy I've always missed, I'd like to hear it.

I like A&A better than Risk, but CC better than both (map variations make CC better for me).

Depends on your game strategy. If you like bombing them out of money, buy upgrades. If you like sub blockades, buy upgrades. If you like to buy tons and tons of infantry, it's definitely worth a try. The difficulty is that you can't commit to one strategy when you buy upgrades - you have to wait and see what your strength is going to be. Personally, I just buy a lot of infantry on turns that I roll for upgrades, since they could change my entire strategy.

The revised version is the new version w/ destroyers and a few new rules about money, etc.

Also, has anyone heard of any online Axis and Allies clubs like this except w/ Axis and Allies!?

Also, has anyone came up w/ a good strategy for being Russia?

Does noone want to respond!

Sure, I'll respond.
The new version sucks, no I haven't, and yes - buy nothing but infantry and live until the US kicks Germany in Africa.

Attack Germany relentlessly and hope USA and UK hold off Japan.
