Default Axis and Allies Release Schedule for 2007

Discussion thread for the Axis and Allies Release Schedule for 2007 article.


My apologies for the late posting of an article today, but I wanted to get this info to you all today and that required some extra leg work. Have fun discussing.

I just saw the page. I can only hope it's an early April Fool's Day prank. If not, this is so wrong in so many ways.


Cutting the price by a third and the quantity by over 40% is a knife in the back, especially considering 2 of the four missing units will be uncommons.

Also, check out the tank minis on the starter package. My initial impression is not favorable. That could be photo quality though.

the booster boxes are just concept art, stated at the top of the page in the first paragraph, I noticed a lot of things wrong with them too. I wounder why they changed the booster size? The next new mini we wont get until december

I think this is great! thank you WOTC!

A question : Are all the units in the new starter old units? I mean are they exactly the same units, with the exact same paint scheme and abilities?

ALEHLUAH! Alehluah! *drops to knees* I don't believe it! The advanced rules are nice but the next 2 scheduled sets...............I thought they'd given up listening to us on the boards but this has restored my confidence. So let the rumors of the end cease and the rejoicing begin!........At least until we start complaining about the new stuff. But I'm happy right now.
