Have you ever beaten the Union militarily? 😄

So who made the map?

Also wondering if there is any negative consequence for having negative manpower?

@LovePlayingAAA Good catch, it appears we missed a few updates on some of the HeavyDestroyers and will fix that in the next minor version.

ImprovedDestroyers and AdvancedDestroyer techs still exist and have been updated to make different improvements for destroyers now. This post outlines the sub/destroyer changes: https://forums.triplea-game.org/topic/493/total-world-war-december-1941-beta-2-8-0-5/392 (there were a few adjustments to that original vision).

The notes haven't been updated yet for 3.0 but are in-progress and hopefully be added shortly.

Please use the new TWW 3.0 for discussing the new version: https://forums.triplea-game.org/topic/1181/total-world-war-december-1941-3-0-0-0-now-available

@Frostion Just the new pizza delivery feature! 😃

Did you guys get permission from sieg for adding additional sea zone into Pacific during WaW update process? If not then wouldn't be possible to divide Belarus and Arabia in the update like you had done similar thing in WaW?

@Panther Thanks : )

Not sure why this was moved in tournaments, but moving it to Maps & Mods, if that's fine.

zod's explanations don't account for it at all though. his stuff applies to ALL sieg maps, by his own statement.

While the situation we have here is TRS receives very little play, while NWO and WAW receive a good amount.
In order to be an explanation it needs to account for that discrepancy.
which means it needs to point to something that differentiates TRS from the other Sieg maps.

@hepps Yeah, I saw a nice bf109 model with that paint scheme. I'm glad someone noticed it. 🙂 As the infantry goes, he is glistening in the sun and sleeves rolled up ready to fight. The tiger is much nicer than original too, added the german cross and high lighted some areas so the tank pops a little.

These were little experiments to see what it takes to improve units. It's quite difficult to work on tiny scales where a few pixels is all I have to work with. But I learned a lot.

Too bad we don't have a vectored graphics for TripleA, then can do all kinds of stuff on any scale.

Hello scallen1 I am huge fan of this game and I had several attemps to improve the current dom 1914 for years but I did generally failed. Then I really realize what dom players (or TripleA players) want to see and what they don't want to see in the game. You can improve any game greatly but in term of the taste of people that's another story.

These are general opinions of most dom 1914 players (or big map players) (including me)

Historical accuracy: It is not as important as you think coz nobody really care. Also making these map historical would make the game significantly more unbaşanced.

Declaration of war: Another bad idea. Every nations definitely should always start in the first round. These triggers slow downs speed of game.

Increasing the importance of techs: Not good idea because some players can prefer playing it without techs and the current tech rolling system is already very dicey. Boosting these techs makes the game more aleatory.

Different units/costs for different nations: People usually don't like it. They like great variations of units but generally better to give every nations to the same units.

Too many country: Again, it just slow down games, they don't provide more strategic options.

I would liek to see to share more my opinions if you are interested in.

Thanks.

@redrum The most areas on a world map is the World at War Map. However it does not use the AAG40 rules.There is no map that uses the AAG40 rules with more map areas. However, it would not be hard to change an existing large map such as World At War,or Ultimate World/Global War to AAG40, by cutting & pasting the xml file. Note that v3/AA50 rules differ only in small ways from AAG40 rules. You could probably play Ultimate World or Global War without making changes.

@scousemart You can download mapskins like maps. This mapskin is available in the repository, under skins. Map skins are a view option, of course.

@hepps That's the way it goes. I'll add this information piece to our thread.

Axis vs Allies. Who will be victorious?
Good to know: TURN ORDER in World at War - Variants
Addendum: Axis nations go first, Allies go second.

ALLIES TURN ORDER
Chinese - Russians - British - French - Americans - Anzac - Dutch

@mario-rafael-herrera-vaca
received it....

when are we playing...pbem

@general_zod You're right. Recruits are used as a mechanism to build other units only. @Mario-Rafael-Herrera-Vaca Recruits have to be regarded as a resource item only like iron or fuel. Recruits units are produced by Factories, depending on the maximum production unit value of a specific territory at the end of the round. They will be consumed by producing specific units. When @sneakingcoward first implemented the resource item "recruits" into World at War variant vXXX map and second in The Rising Sun variant vXXX map, gameplay became once more realistic. Both maps belong to TripleA maps that are state of the art. 0_1534581074462_wawtrs_postcard.jpg

@mario-rafael-herrera-vaca Moved to maps and mods, assuming it doesn't necessarily entails modifications to the TripleA program itself.
I would update the title to be more specific, also on the account that there are several topics about this game.
The referring mapmaker is @sneakingcoward.

@schulz no I got it to work. Just took a long time for my computer to have the map blends show up. Just waiting on the PR to get merged

Little one is a galley, big one is a man of war. Both can fight, I really dislike the instantly killed dedicated transports of some games.
