Axis & Allies: World War I 1914 is a strategy board game published by Avalon Hill in 2013 that carries the long-running Axis & Allies series back to the First World War. It keeps the familiar, time-tested rules of the series but adapts them to the armies of 1914, so players move units across a map, buy forces, fight battles and try to hold territory for their side. The game gives players command of eight major powers. The Central Powers of Germany, the Austro-Hungarian Empire and the Ottoman Empire face an alliance of France, the British Empire, the Russian Empire, Italy and the United States, on a new board that stretches from Washington, DC to Bombay, India. The box includes 22 all-new unit sculpts, and the period brings units such as biplanes into the series for the first time. The publisher lists it for two to eight players with a playing time of roughly one to three hours, which makes it a large, multi-player conquest game that suits teams on each side of the war.
