    @Panther I don't use either as I use Windows 10 But generally, I believe the majority of Chrome OS is Chromebooks not full desktops and I don't think I'd ever choose to install Chromium OS on my PC. I'd probably go with Ubuntu personally but when it comes to linux flavors I think its more about what you are comfortable with and if there are certain things you are looking for since they are all a little different.

    @tinfoil666 For the most part, I agree with you though whether you have limited battle rounds plays a big part in this as if you don't then the difference between weakening attacker and strengthening defenders isn't much since they fight to the death. I don't believe there is any easy way to have a fortification increase the HP of other units. You could either have the fortifications increase their defense or have fortifications that have 0 attack/defense and just HP or some combination of those. You might be able to do something with triggers where units in a territory with a fortification are changed into a unit with more HP after your turn and then a trigger to change them back at the start of your turn. I believe what you are getting at would be something like adding a new supportAttachment option that could increase HP instead of just attack/defense. Its an interesting idea and you could create a feature request to see if others supported it as well.

    @Frostion I think it would see them as free if they have "0 PU cost" so would buy as many as possible but not positive.

    @MartyMoose Global 50 No wonder the Canadians are going first Yea you need to activate "Tech Development" in "Map Options" before you start the game or it will skip the tech phase. I don't remember tanks being able to move infantry. I thought it was they could just blitz with 2 mechs or maybe mech boost the inf ? Anyway, just click on both and move them together and see what happens : )

    @zlefin @Cernel @redrum I dont have access to test it (no PC at the moment), but if I recall correctly, you can mouseover and then slightly move the mouse pointer around every 1-2 seconds, while inside the boundaries of the unit picture, that way keeping the pop-up alive. Anyway... a good solution/engine fix could be a to have the pop-up stay popped up by default until the mouse is moved like 10-15 pixel or something?

    @RogerCooper Thanks for bringing The Grand War to my attention. It looks interesting. Also, I didn't know about the option of choosing a random scenario at fandom.com. I'll give that a go. TripleA is great & has an informative forum.

    @Cernel A simple graphical addition to the map could solve the problem from a visual standpoint, without having to redraw the map or make any compatibility issues.

    Going full force Atlantic and Pacific should be equally good. Going only Pacific must result guarantee falling of Japan and Russia but going only Atlantic musn't guarantee falling of Germany. But as I said before; balanced manner should be better than focusing only one front. It doesn't have to be %50-%50. For Making Pacific front more tempting and variety, its better to make Australia and New Zealand American hence USA would be closer to East Indies. Otherwise Western USA is too far away to reach here. Western USA is even too far away for to protect Australia. hawaii can be overvalued too. It wouldn't be even too unrealistic. Some cities could be much more important than their actual values. Strateic locations, historically imprtant towns etc... Verdun in ww1 is a good example. The same can be applied to Hawaii. Had the Japanese captured it, it could be major blow to American public morale.

    Low Luck and Kamikaze Fighters

    @ubernaut It is well known that in all basic games (as well as the NWO series) there are absolutely no "kamikaze" related limits at what you can do during the conduct combat phases. You can freely take carriers out or retreat them with no regard to what will happen to your fighters. This is why I said that, substantially, the item primarily discussed at the topic is unrelated to low luck and easy to clarify: no kamikaze limits during anything happening in conduct combat, while you are in the course of that phase. As said, the only indirect element is that, while you are in the combat movement phase, you may have to think in term of what might happen during conduct combat; and here indeed the rules may be reinterpreted based on low luck.

    @RoiEX Excellent. I just got done packaging a win 32 JRE. I hope that will suffice for some time until we can more reasonably drop win32 support.

    @Michael-Vitale Is port 3300 open? Maybe a firewall blocks incoming/outgoing connections on port 3300. (Assuming you did not change the default port when setting it up.)

    Yes, you are supposed to place them in the "house name". It used to work, and now it does not. Are you going to report this problem?

    hi, never seen this game, installed just to try helping you but I cannot place too, it seems a bug because I have played so many games in TripleA and the process to place what you purchased is always the same, maybe this map is not working fine with recent tripleA version

    but there are so many other good games you can play with triplea !
