Also, not released originally in 2008. I at least kicked over my first just set up board in 1990. Then my friend rightfully punched me in the head.

CanuckGoonerYou're right, A&A has been around for a long time. I think they are referring to the original anniversary edition released in 2008.

SaeulfI'm sure they are. It is odd though that they don't use the game's long history (and then subsequent editions) to market just how classic the game is.

CanuckGoonerThe "Anniversary Edition" was most definitely released in 2008. This is *not* the original version from the late 80s.

SynapticAcidLOL, thanks for the Axis & Allies –splaining. 🤣 Check out my website that I've been running for the past 18 years: https://www.axisandallies.org 😉
But yes, in responding to the fact that this is not the original, I neglected to mention this is a reprint. Thanks for clearing that up for the next person who reads this thread!

djensen47Ha! I'm almost linked to that site as a reference to explain the reprint, but thought the company press release was more 'direct'.
