IAAPA Complete Unabridged Rules - Part 1 New Player Information

Last Updated July 25, 1999

Questions and comments should be directed to our Minister of Law John (law@axisandallies.net).

We are always encouraging new members to join the IAAPA. We have players from the age of 12 to 92 in our Association, and all who know the rules of the game are welcome. Please take a look at one or two of the game logs to see how it is played.

MAKE SURE YOU HAVE 2ND EDITION RULES WITH YOUR AXIS AND ALLIES GAME! ALSO MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THE "CLASSIFIED" RULES CLARIFICATIONS THAT COME WITH RECENTLY PURCHASED GAMES. IF YOU DON'T HAVE THIS CLARIFICATIONS BOOKLET, AN ELECTRONIC FORM OF IT IS AVAILABLE ON THE DOWNLOADS SECTION OF THE IAAPA SITE.

In order for new players to begin play:

1.Must contact the IAAPA Minister of Recruiting by taking the Final Hurdle on the Web Site (Click on the Start Here button and follow the instructions).
2.Must get the Axis and Allies board or CD-ROM game, 2nd edition rules and 'classified' rules clarifications that come with game (or download it from the downloads section of the IAAPA Web Site once they become a member).
3.Must be willing to log and and monitor email regularly (bi-weekly at a minimum) and be willing to GM at least one game after the initial 'rookie' game (and GM one game for every game they play where a GM is assigned).

For players that who have never played via computer before, they should look closely at PBEM (play-by-e-mail) games by either accessing them through the IAAPA Gaming Area on AOL (keyword A&A) or the Downloads and Online Stats Pages of the Association Web Site.
