Axis & Allies 1942 Online Patch! New Defense Profiles, iOS fixes, and More!

Attention Commanders,

A new patch for Axis & Allies 1942 Online is on the way. 🎲🎲🎲

⚠️OUTAGE NOTICE:⚠️ The game will be unavailable from July 6th 11:00am-1:00pm MDT while the team rolls out the patch.

[h2]PATCH DETAILS[/h2]

[h3]FEATURES[/h3]
  • New Defense Profiles | You can now pick from new options of Defense Profiles for Submarines and Destroyers! Differentiate between lone Subs and Subs with a fleet when automatically submerging, or select the last defending Destroyer to be preserved in an encounter with attacking Subs


  • Black Screen Prevention on iOS | Axis & Allies 1942 Online on iOS will now use Minimal High Quality Sprites by default: only unit icon sprites will be used on the game & combat boards. The setting (which players can find & tweak to their liking in Graphics -> Image Content And Resolution) will hopefully mitigate black screens and constant reloading. The Use Minimal Resources setting will also cause no animations and unit icon sprites only, but at a lower resolution than default


[h3]FIXES[/h3]
  • Game History now shows players who forfeited in Custom games
  • Purchase Panel and Map Notes should be more accessible on mobile devices with unusual screen resolutions
  • Fixed an incorrect error message when attempting to move a transport to a non-hostile seazone in the Combat Move phase
  • Fixed The Victory Cities text in the Help More Victory City list section
  • More crash fixes
