Axis & Allies Miniatures
Encyclopedia
Axis & Allies Miniatures is a miniature wargaming
system including both a rule set and a line of 1/100 scale miniature armor (15 mm figure scale) collectible miniatures. The game is set in the World War II
era with units representing individual vehicles and artillery
or squads of infantry
. The system was first released in 2005 and is currently produced by Avalon Hill
, a division of the game company Wizards of the Coast
, which itself is a subsidiary of Hasbro
.
Aimed at the collectible miniatures game
market, the title Axis & Allies drew on that game's historic strength and notoriety. However, the miniature game bears little resemblance to the widely sold board games and other Axis & Allies items. Instead of a game of grand strategy, the miniatures game focuses on the tactical battle, with units fielded on either side of the battle being rarely greater than a company. Each piece is assigned a point value so that balanced matches can be constructed. Tournament play
is typically done with 100 points per side, with infantry units usually having values of fewer than 10 points each and vehicles range from less than 10 to 50 or more based on relative strengths. Scenarios may alter these numbers or otherwise determine the constitution of each side. The map board consists of 2" (5 cm) hexes, with different terrain types represented within. Most set-ups are fewer than 20 hexes in either dimension. Combat resolution is done by rolling pools of standard six-sided dice.
Rule books are included in every starter set. For the Ground Sets, Expanded Rules were published separately. For the Naval Sets, Advanced Rules are available online.
The initial release included a broad range of units for Germany
, the United Kingdom
, and the United States
, with a more limited set for Japan
and the Soviet Union

and Italian
forces. The second set added Nationalist China

, was released around the time of the fifth series of miniatures. This game follows the same basic concept of collectible miniatures played on a paper map, using Six-sided dice to determine battle results. Like its predecessors, it features a wide range of miniatures, from submarines to cruisers to aircraft carriers.
Infantry and Aircraft have always kept the same scale (15mm and 1/240 respectively), so those units from older sets (I to V) are "compatible" with newer sets (VI and on).

Air Sets
A second sister series, Axis & Allies Air Force Miniatures: Angels Twenty, is due for release on February 21, 2011. It will focus on air combat, with scale models of fighter squadrons and bombers. The scale is expect to be 1/100 and will be compatible with ground forces games.Scale sizes of miniatures
Originally, the scale for vehicles in the Ground Sets was variable (10-15mm). Because of players and fans complains (and possibly for commercial reasons as well), Avalon Hill has been re-scaling vehicles to 15mm since the introduction of Set VI (1939–1945). However, there are still some slight variations between models (probably for technical reasons).Infantry and Aircraft have always kept the same scale (15mm and 1/240 respectively), so those units from older sets (I to V) are "compatible" with newer sets (VI and on).
