Are countries assigned randomly?
New to this site here, so sorry if this is answered elsewhere that I didn't find. Are countries assigned randomly when a game starts? (I'm noticing in the Championship Belt Game Series that xorxes always plays Austria and captainmeme always plays France, but have not found any setting for choosing a country or assigning preferences or anything.)

Uber is kind of cool
So, I dont actually plan to spend money. But I downloaded this cool app called uber. I think its like, taxi cabs or toy cars or something. But they move. They wiggle around and travel places on this cool map that looks a little like real life. I watched this one car strolling down a highway. This is neat. How do I take over one of these cartoon car thingys

Hiliary rigged her nomination
Former interim DNC Chairwoman Donna Brazile has come out exposing the Clinton campaign of taking over the DNC prior to her getting the nomination as the party's candidate which gave Clinton the control over the party's finances, strategy and all the money raised.

Incomplete orders on the small preview map are a problem.
Not all orders (most notably support orders) are shown on the small preview map of a game and, especially in Gunboat, this is pretty problematic.

Criminal Friends of Trump
http://www.cnn.com/2017/10/31/politics/manafort-3-passports/index.html

Former Trump friend Manafort has 3 different US passports under his own name and at least one under a fake name that's he's used to travel and possibly move money. The first to be indicted and a step up the ladder of Republican lies about what was happening during the election campaign.

Already a guilty plea from Trump's former foreign policy advisor. Trump's going to be claiming he didn't know anything as it gets closer to him.

Really should add a clip from "Hogan's Heroes" of Sgt. Schultz going, "I know nothing. I see nothing. I hear nothing." Trump's going to be saying that a lot.

So by using an exercise of convoluted & illogical conjecture might I then blame jmo &/or BoSox for this blighter Manafort's possession of multiple passports ? Is the Trump "maladministration" an example of multi accounting ?

according to certain conspiracies, the Clintons have murdered over 60 people and embezzled hundreds of millions of dollars over several decades. If this is true, they are perhaps the most brilliant, evil criminal masterminds in the history of the world, especially considering they have done it all in the brightest spotlight of the public eye, and in the face of rabid hatred from the far right that has quite frequently controlled all the levers of power and investigation.

You know Manafort’s crimes has almost nothing to do with Trump. I’m sure the Clintons have some nasty friends too. The Podesta brothers are under investigation too so Trump looks good firing his criminal while Clinton retained hers.

"controlling a majority of the elected federal government from 94 to 2006, then from 2010 to 2017. that's a long time."

So you're directly implying that the entire Republican Party is far-right?
KansasBoyd (25 DX)

You do know that there are huge parts of the government that has power and investigative powers that aren't elected don't you?

Let's put it this way, Steven. Today, Reagan would be a Democrat. He was more liberal than Obama on a number of issues. Yes, with a handful of exceptions the entire Republican Party is far right or right wing extremists. That handful are mostly retiring or losing primaries, which tells you about the voters

There are any number of studies that have domenented this

Well Reagan had acting experience with chimpanzees in a movie so I imagine he would use that when dealing with Trump. Feed the bloated baboon bananas and slap him into line backstage. Then deftly "steal the spotlight" and attention on stage. Reagan might have only been a B grade actor when compared to his Hollywood peers back in the day, but put him beside Trump and in that comparison Reagan is short priced Oscar favourite. LoL. One major difference, Ronald was a gentleman around the ladies, could be trusted in mixed company. Trump is reminiscent of the fat boy who deliberately drops a handful of nickels on the floor so he can look up ladies dresses and drool whilst pretending to retrieve his coins with one hand and rubbing his private parts obscenely with the other.

Axis & Allies general discussion thread
See title. I started playing it about a month ago. It's quite fun and a very different challenge from Diplomacy. I'm still getting my head wrapped around the editions, but I believe my group plays the "Classic" version (Spring 1942 start and there are no artillery, destroyers, etc.)

A friend and I are also working on a "present-day" version.
