    2. USA can't attack Germany before Germany attacks the US (Germany declares war on the US if, for example, it has a fighter in Russian controlled Karelia, and Germany attacks Karelia).
    That rule virtually guarantees an Axis victory - but as long as I'm Axis I don't mind

      damn... wish i had my game of this. i bought it when i was eight (i had hoped that if i got a board game or some sort it would force my family to do something together for once but that didnt work) and I never really got to use it. I played it by myself a few times. Damn wish i had it with me.

          Probably a bit late to start tonight. We can organize now, and regroup to start sometime tommorrow...

          As for the dice thing, do you mean online dice rolls, or standard?

                I seem to remember and old Axis & Allies Windows game that somebody from Apolyton sent to me. Don't remember whether it was really called Axis & Allies, but was a carbon copy. Really small (3 MB), with internet play...

                edit: It was called Dogs of War...
                I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt.

                  I should be online this afternoon.

                  Dan, that'd be "Dogs of War."

                  I've never seen an experienced set of allies lose without these rules, unless they had horrible dice rolls.

                        Ramo: Yeh, I just read the first page and you mentioned it earlier. Doh!

                        I played it a long time ago, but don't have a copy. I still have dogsofwar.ini on my machine.

                        I would be up for playing it, if anybody has a copy lying around.

                          You don't want 6's, they are misses. What you want are 1's.

                            Acutally it doesn't, depending how you interpret that rule. For example, there is a whole bunch of US infantry units in one of the USSR areas. When Germany launches at attack against it, does it count as an attack against the US?

                              What people do on GZ. Is they play Restricted Russia. Which the SU cannot attack on its first turn into Ukraine, Finland, or Manchuria. That usaully equalize's the playing field

                                Cool, I found Dogs of War from Lycos (dogwar.zip). I'm up for a game in an hour or so, if there's anybody interested. I can serve.
