Games in a Box Notes
From the Avalon Hill / Hasbro website...

First and foremost, Axis and Allies is a game about World War II. With the exception of starting position and IPCs, however, all the powers have the same options throughout the game. Over the years, dedicated players have created thousands of optional rules to highlight individual aspects of the war. With the advent of the internet, websites became a communal repository for these caches of home rules.

The new Axis and Allies learned from this revolution. To reflect the fascinating flavor of the war and to increase the variety of the play experience, Axis and Allies has as many optional rules as we could put in the game.

Appendix 3 of the new Operations Manual contains thirty 'national advantages' for you to try out. They're called national advantages because only one power can use each one. You can roll them randomly (there are six for each power) or choose which ones you want to use. They're nice balancing tools, so if one player isn't as experienced as another, give the newbie a couple of national advantages to level the playing field.

Each country gets a particular flavor of rules. Many derive from the new concept that territories have 'color'. The Germans may be stretched all over but certain of these advantages only work in 'gray territories'. That means they don't work in territories the Germans take but they do work in territories that the Germans have to take back.
