Scale Variations
There are currently five sets of pieces available in the game in the original scale. Each one has basic units and expands the game, but can also be used as the basis for armies only from that set. In 2006, Wizards of the Coast changed the scale of the minis. All future expansions will be in 15mm scale.
12mm Scale Expansions
Base Set
The core for your War - troops, tanks, and more that form the basic building blocks for the game.
Set II
An expansion that introduces three new unit types (snipers, paratroopers, and cavalry) as well as troops from China, Poland, and Romania.
Contested Skies
Help from above. Contested Skies features fighter planes, antiaircraft guns, tank destroyers, motorcycles, forward observers and more.
D-Day
The assault on Fortress Europe begins with D-Day. Highlighting units and nations involved in Operation Overlord – including the debut of Canadian troops – D-Day features the introduction of battlefield obstacles: immobile, non nation-specific units like pillboxes and tank traps that add to the realism of game play. Fan requested favorites like the Supermarine Spitfire and Jagdtiger also roar into action.
Reserves
Escalate with the experimental. Deploy some of the most innovative and unusual units developed for the war, scramble fast-moving jets, and establish superiority with support units. Includes fan favorites such as Ranger and Fallschirmjäger units.

Axis and Allies Miniatures provides an excellent gaming environment in which we can simulate historical struggles. Re-creating the battle of Stalingrad or Kursk, however, would be on such a giant scale that even I would shrink from it. So, my goal is to introduce the historical flavor of each 6 month period, by creating a scenario for each period that has elements of the real battles.
Basically, I have 9 scenarios, two for each year 1941 to 1944, and then one last one in 1945. The overall campaign is won based on total prestige earned of all scenarios combined. The later games provide larger battles and more opportunity for prestige, so even if you get a little behind at the beginning, the campaign isn’t over until the end. There are no “winners”...
A Historical Axis & Allies Miniature Scenario based upon the defense of the Sinimaed Hills of Estonia in late July 1944. The Scenario pits the enrenched but small elite units of the III SS (Germanic) Panzer Corps)against the massive and well equiped Soviet 2nd Shock army of the Leningrad Front.
Suitable for Team Play
I will be updating the campaign often.
At the moment it contains the first 4 scenarios, 3 land and 1 naval, up to the 16 Dec. 1939. Stay tuned for the invasion of Norway, which I'll include next week. It will be both naval and land.
For all scenarios I include all the cards you'll need, ready to print on a single sheet.
Enjoy and stay tuned for the updates. Next update should be in January.

Developed By HHR commitee and others on axis and allies forums. this is the most uptodate rule set. The goal of the rules and reversioned cards was to give a more historic feel to the game through revised stat cards.
