Hasbro Gaming Avalon Hill Axis & Allies Europe 1940 Second Edition WWII Strategy Board Game, with Extra Large Gameboard, Ages 12 and Up, 2-6 Players

Very professional if you have trouble

This is a great game that I have played many times with some pals. I decided to splash out on both the Europe and Pacific versions to be able to play the Global 1940 variant with some other pals. Sadly the UK infantry (cream coloured rather than tan coloured) and the US infantry pieces (green rather than olive drab) were different colours to the rest of their nations pieces. If this detail doesn’t bother you or you intend to paint them then it shouldn’t be much of an issue for you. The mismatched colours bother me and when paying over £200 for both sets, I’m not going to accept such poor attention to detail.I tried to contact the seller but there was no means to do that so I’ve had to return it and the Pacific version for the same reason.This is not the result of someone swapping the pieces around post manufacture or simply someone at the factory putting the wrong bag in the box because the same fault occurred with two different sets, each bought from a different supplier and both were arrived sealed in their original cellophane.I’m bitterly disappointed.(I’ve given this three stars rather than one because it is still an awesome game).
