@panzerstahl-helm-0 Glorious forces of the Rising Sun attacking Burma! You have six land mines there. My engineers clear two of them so you get four dice rolls to blow up my infantry's feet with sir.

@crockett36

Ok well you attacked with 5 Ftrs and 1 Inf. JPN got 2 hits so that leaves you with 3 Ftrs which is what we have now.

@ubernaut Okay. Good to know.

@beelee I will give it a shot seeing if I can finally figure out how to post screenshots. If so, I can complete the game report

Edit
Another Fun game Panzer. I didn't know if the J 2 would work or not. I used to do it in solo games and had some success. I tried it once against Victory but forgot some dudes to the PHI attack and then rolled poorly and didn't take it, so not a real good test of it.

Do you wanna do the Game Report for this one ? Maybe you can have your AI buddy help 🙂 I know you have a young Familie and work, so I can if you just don't have the time. I think it's good to alternate though 🙂

I have some more work to do now for the next update. Should be ready to roll again in a week or so. I'm sure you will want a crack at revenge 🙂 so we can battle again when you're ready 🙂

Edit
Here's a new place for the Air Boxes if you want. It didn't make the last update. I guess a Ftr Ace will still cause overflow but that's ok 🙂

I think it'll be most efficient to have both Ftr and Tac ACs in the same Box. Then just move which one is needed instead of edit back and forth

Here's a link to the dice roller if you're not already registered https://dice.marti.triplea-game.org/

Also starting with triplea+15028 the battle calc doesn't work. It is fixed in 15032. I am on 14962 fwiw 🙂

Latest Game Version is 2.41.

Edit
I suggest you be Allies for your first game as Germany has the most special units and is the hardest to learn. I find it handy to have a window with the rulebook https://drive.google.com/file/d/1jI_1JdIC-1KiTihBICJAbtX3GpVYnNgf/view?pli=1
that I can click to at anytime for clarification. Actually I have two with one on table of contents, the other to scroll to where I want to go.

The "Game Notes" are under the "Help Tab". It will explain in detail how EXP works in triplea.

Let me know when you're ready to roll and I'll start us off.

@trout

I'd be a Yukonner if I was 🙂

Yep I'm a yank. Living in the Heartland. Actually was born in Cali but only lived there for six years.

I try to keep that kinda quiet these days lol

@VictoryFirst

Now that you back, might as well see if Pizza can defend the Old Man's Honor 🙂

Hey here's a @Black_Elk Star change to the map.properties.

just add the last two lines, then when you fire up, you can hit blends and it'll give you a lighter look.

I still like the neon 🙂

I feel like I already said that somewhere lol

map.properties

Screenshot from 2025-04-15 05-19-06.png

you can change to .05 or .1 or .15 etc ... .2 the lightest Elk liked it best

Just buggin to remind ya this one still going too 🙂 hee hee

Edit
Oh yea you gotta turn it on under "View" in "Show Map Blends"

It'll stay on blends all the time until you change it even if you restart game.

OK I did my part to resurrect the thread 🙂

Edit
The dudes show up clearer in Italy and DNG. I Could get used to it I guess 🙂

Edit 2
Last ones 🙂

@sirsilas

Hi silas

It's ok if you don't want to finish the game. Hope you didn't get taken out on your business trip by a distracted driver 😲

Anyway, you still welcome to play on triplea with our small gruppe.

Hope you give it a try again 🙂

@panzerstahl-helm-0 Thanks Panzer. Yes, we can start a game whenever you want. I honestly would need a little tutorial in how to get it started. Is it something as simple as I can just post a new topic and then send you my G1 via Play by Email?? If so, then yes I can send you my G1 in next couple of days. As for your victory, I think my downfall started when you knocked out ANZAC. Japan knocking out ANZAC is not a killing blow by itself but since I was completely unprepared for it with your brilliant disguising of your intentions, it happened without me having any plan to counter it 😞 Then you introduced me to the "Gibraltar stack" which was new to me also. In any case, congrats again on kicking my fanny.

@wc_sumpton

Boxes seems like AA50 and Mega Global lol

@trout

yea no need to go to big on the report. I always do 🙂 I'd try and use The Captain's as a guide.

Don't worry too much about pictures. There is a small < > upper right where you can go full screen. Select a certain area you can tune out the History or just bomb the entire screen in.

I usually zoom out to get a bigger picture. The save game has all the info but most won't want to fire it up unless they're real interested.

Anyway, be a couple days probably. Need to fix a couple things and update the Notes again.

Fun game 🙂
