The game's design feels a bit dated, requiring an hour of 'logistical' setup and unit placement. Your reward, however, will be moments like "I'll finish my coffee and then invade Indochina" (provided you combine it into the global version with A&A: Pacific 1940). A compelling feature of the game is the unit technology upgrades; while they are quite difficult to obtain (and unpredictable), they add a great sense of authenticity to the gameplay.
hra je poněkud zastaralá svým provedením, které vyžaduje hodinovou 'logistickou' přípravu a rozmisťování jednotek. Odměnou vám budou momenty typu "teď dopiju kafe a napadnu Indočínu" (tedy pokud hru spojíte do globální verze s A&A:Pacific 1940).Zajímavým motivem hry jsou technologická vylepšení jednotek, která jsou sice velmi obtížně získatelná (a nepředvídatelná) ale hře dodávají na autenticitě.
I ordered Axis and Allies: Europe 1940 in March 2015 and we've played it at least twenty times since then. The game quality is excellent, and the unique miniatures for each nation are a nice touch. The game design is really good. It's a great game, though it's quite long, especially when combined with Pacific 1940 for the global version. It's best played with four people, 2 Allies and 2 Axis. The same goes for Global. However, a single game takes all day, and since I don't have that much time anymore, I see that as a bit of a downside. Otherwise, it's great when you have the time.

Axis and Allies: Europe 1940 jsem objednal v březnu 2015, a od té doby jsme jí hráli alespoň dvacet krát. Kvalita hry je vynikající, zajímavé je provedení odlišných miniatur pro každý stát. Design hry je hodně dobrý. Skvělá hra, akorát je docela dlouhá, hlavně když se spojí s Pacific 1940 do globální verze. Optimální je hrát jí ve čtyřech, 2 Allies a 2 Axis. Stejně tak i Global. Jedna hra však trvá celý den, teď už to tak moc nestíhám, tak to vidím jako docela mínus. Jinak skvělá, když je čas. (Fotografie - počáteční rozložení sil)
