    What questions do you have about GI Joe: Battle for the Arctic Circle?

    I wish they would do like a modern-day axis and allies with modern tank and planes and heli's. Maybe even cruise missles, lol.

      Good idea! Start designing! Let us know when you are ready to share it. :)

    Happy that A&A tries new stuff! There are so much more wars to cover than WWII

    Battle of the Bulge had some hex action going on, but I like how this uses hexes on land AND sea, instead of being primarily a land battle…. Also as much as I would love to get my hands on a copy of Bulge, it seems like the hardest one to find.
    This GI Joe version looks like a fun variant of A&A. :). Thanks!

    This looks so cool. My boys are way too young to learn yet but they sure love the pieces and map. The new little changes in the A&A system so far have been fun to learn and try

    revised rulebook also had advice written in it

    • @BoardGameNation
      @BoardGameNation  Місяць тому

      Was it advice or just a ton of optional rules? I can't remember.
      Thanks for watching!

      @sirundying Місяць тому +1

      @@BoardGameNation theres optional rules at the end with national dvantages ( we used to play with them, 2 per allies power, 3 per axis power for 6 total on each side ).
      but what i mean is there was some global tips on how each country should play in the section that describe each country ( i went back to check to make sure, page 5 of revised ). today looking back at that, its all obvious stuff but when we were new players it did helped us a bit

    Gary, what versions of A&A are right behind your right shoulder in this vid? Right next to cobra commander’s helmet? Spent way too much time trying to figure out what they are. Lmao
    Also, conquest of the empire is next on my wishlist of classic games to get. Would love to hear your thoughts on it and the other games in the Gamemaster Series from Milton Bradley.

    • @BoardGameNation
      @BoardGameNation  Місяць тому

      Haha! In the square next to Cobra Commander’s helmet is 1942.1, Revised, and Zombies.
      I actually haven't played Conquest of the Empire in decades. I picked up that complete copy in at a game swap for $50. I played Fortress America in the early 2000s, but I haven't played Boarder & Broadside. I did play Shogun about 10 years ago, but that one is coming back around. I hear someone is planning to remake it in the near future.
      Thanks for watching!

    I didn't like the chip representation on the page. They should have just put 2 grey or 1 green. Tokens are so thin really cardboard should be thicker.

    • @BoardGameNation
      @BoardGameNation  Місяць тому

      I noted that as well. I think they were trying to keep the cost down where they could. Seems they put the money into the sculpts and the map. Still, for $60, I think this is actually pretty good.
