Anyone ever play this game? Looking at it, it seems to me it's a WH40K style TT game, the biggest difference being a lack of painting needed to play the game.
Is it any good?

Play Flames of War instead. A&A is just another in a long line of clickbase bastardisations of much better games that have been made L.C.D. by WizKids.

The frak? A&AM is made by Wizards of the Coast, not WizKids, so there is no clickytech involved. Not knowing 40K, I cannot say how they compare, but to my knowledge A&AM sacrifices realism for ease and speed of play compared to Flames of War or Squad Leader. A 100 point game usually takes 1-2 hours. Less expensive, and the miniature quality is good up through set 3. I personally tend toward HHR, a fan made set of reworked rules and unit stats.
