Axis & Allies can either be a board game, a miniatures game as well as an electronic game! I did mention board games and miniatures gaming, but obviously there are far too many to name them all. But feel free to share with us any stories and/or piccies you may have of your A&A gaming.

Some people that I've played Star Wars Minis with are also Axis & Allies Miniatures players (I think some of them also know how to play the board game too). It's not a game I've ever gotten into though... Collectable miniatures war gaming is an f'expensive hobby, and alongside collecting Star Wars Miniatures and Transformers Attacktix, I really wasn't inclined to start collecting _another_ expensive miniatures war game! (>_<)

I must confess that I don't really know much about how Axis & Allies works, but I wonder if it's at all cross-compatible with Star Wars Galactic Battles. Cos regular Star Wars Miniatures is cross-compatible with Dungeons & Dragons Miniatures. I've played Star Wars Minis vs. D&D Minis twice... it was interesting. Star Wars units totally pwn in terms of technological superiority (i.e.: blaster shots have no range limits) but D&D units can totally pwn with powerful sorcery/magic. A single Beholder and a Death Knight killed off an entire squad of my Tusken Raiders and Imperial Stormtroopers! Damnit! I'd like to try another game using a Republic squad (i.e. Clone Troopers led by a Jedi).
