Well, it is the most ridiculously large and expensive version of the game that I know of...

I've never played Axis & Allies, so I don't know how much it's worth, but I suppose for that price (Even the lower one) you can get a whole bunch of other very good games.

BTW, what does age have to do with enjoying a game like that?

yeah but I can get it for a little less than 140 bucks pretty much the price when it first came out.

And that's not the most expensive tabletop game.

There are other more expensive tabletop games.

The most recent is this


I have the non collector edition and it's a GREAT game! It really is. Gameplay is top notch it really is LotR on the table...by the soul I mean.

Older rarer tabletop games may even sell for more!

Umm for one I no longer cheer at playing monopoly or snakes & ladders
Never played risk but I assume likewise too.
read a comment that it's a kids collection game umm but so far I've seen more older people playing it than teenagers or younger.

Even at the standard price I could get two very good board games with the money . . . so thus my doubt and cautious approach to buying it.
Tempted to buy it and try to sell it on ebay to make bucks but I've seen people selling it for 300 bucks or less and no one's bidding. I must assume at the current crazy prices that Avalon Hill is going to have another reprint. It's just too tempting not to and there's the expensive shipping from here to Europe or US or even just Australia as most who would want the game at that kind of price must not be local.
