Bugs: Recent Topics Paging, Uploading Images & Preview (11 Dec 2020)
Recent Topics paging, uploading images and preview bugs require a patch which has not yet been released.
This is part of a series of bloody matches to the death. Show support for your favorite game so it will do better in the fight. You can support it by writing why you think its the better game and more importantly by betting (i.e. voting for) it. Please make it clear for when I check the bets later. You have until Friday when I tally the bets and declare the winner. I will reserve my bet for any tie-breakers.
Although you should be familiar with both games, there is no rule that says you have to have played both of them. The only rule in Trashdome is this;
Two games enter! One game leaves!

WELCOME TO TRASHDOME!
This is part of a series of bloody matches to the death. Show support for your favorite game so it will do better in the fight. You can support it by writing why you think its the better game and more importantly by betting on it. End your first post in this thread with the title of the game you're placing a bet on (i.e. voting for) so its clear to me when reading it later. You have until Friday when I tally the bets and declare the winner. The winning game may return for future matches, the loser will be dead. Counting expansions or not is entirely up to you just as playing with them or not is. I will reserve my bet for any tie-breakers.

My youth was spent playing A&A. I've only gotten to break into Starcraft once.
Never played the Anniversary edition, but I think that'd go above and beyond Stacraft. Just too much awesome. Starcraft vs. the old edition (the reeeeally old one) and Starcraft would probably come out on top.
But since I'd have to imagine either way (playing Anniversary edition or playing Starcraft more against the A&A I have played) - I'll vote: AXIS AND ALLIES.
Great global WW2.

Axis & Allies is a great introduction to DOAM games, but it certainly feels samey after multiple plays. Also, it sucks to be Russia.
StarCraft, with modular board pieces, totally assymetric armies, a much better technology system than A&A, and a rockin' theme is all kinds of awesome.

I love A&A but starcaft just has so much new and awesome going on that I can't vote for the old guy.

Scientists have proven that Axis and Allies is the best board game known to man. Sure, some misguided fools might dispute this, but you can't argue with science.
Whew, I was afraid I pulled a Barnes on this one and would be left holding the bag.

I enjoyed playing A&A 4th edition last time, and I have the D-Day version which plays well. Also have Battle of the Bulge version to yet hit the table.
Starcraft went down well when I played it the once, but something just didn't feel right. There were new ways of doing things and clever bits but it felt like something was missing. I won't be giving up on it though and will grab a seat the next time it hits the table.
On personal fun and satisfaction my vote goes to Axis & Allies - 'cos I do like WWII games.

What's not to like. Planning phase is so angst and interactive. Totally asymetric armies and technologies. Modular board. And fighting from turn one!! No turtling here, no no.
Great stuff.
