    @Cernel Yeah, can probably repurpose that thread to be the official one and should probably move the conversation there since this was really about fixing some of the bugs in the map.

    @Cernel I don't see the current patchwork is a problem (it rewards the minor allies for participating). But you could easily create an event that triggers in the current version of the engine, changing ownership to reflect the assigned sphere of influence. Here is the reference from POS2 changeOwnership values: This will change the ownership of the territory, either directly or by conquering the territory (there is a difference). Format is "territoryName:oldOwner:newOwner:booleanCaptured?". territoryName can be "all", and oldOwner can be "any". Can have multiple instances. examples: <option name="changeOwnership" value="South France:Germans:VichyFrench:false"/> or <option name="changeOwnership" value="all:Mongolians:Russians:true"/> or <option name="changeOwnership" value="Danzig:any:Germans:false"/>

    So there doesn't appear to be an appetite to rebalance this map based on the territory differences between RTW and 270BC. So I've taken the improved unit images and dice images and merged them into standard 270BC: https://github.com/triplea-maps/270bc/pull/4 I will also be reviewing the changes in 270BC variants to see if any balances adjustments should be added from those.

    @runman Sadly, I don't think anyone fixed anything. It's many years that several people talk about the Game of Thrones map, but nothing has ever come out of it (I may be interested in playing that map if well remade). If you are interested in learning mapmaking and fixing it yourself, you can do it (whatever changes are probably going to be accepted, I assume, the map being just largely broken).

    @redrum Wow that is seriously Ethnic oriented. There is that single "Slavs" players that groups together Pomerania, Bohemia, Polonia, almost all Russia, Serbia and Bulgaria. Tho, in this case, they got the name "Britons" wrong, as those are, rather, the "Anglo-Saxons" migrants, since also "Brittany" ("Little Britain") I see it is not part of the "Britons"...

    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

    UBr Update: WARNING using this update will require scenarios to be reloaded. Added sorting options. Added a list of game properties used in the scenario. Better handling of complex support attachments. Fixed off-line issues. Production frontiers are now dealt with as groups in the unit list, rather than having them as separate items in the empire list. This allows one to view and filter the frontiers so one can compare. Initial placement units are placed in a group as well as sometimes they are not in a production frontier. Newest version : UBr Link 1.002.003

    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?

    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.

  • @shorogyth Your solution to territory effects is certainly simpler and it would work fine if every territory had exactly one territory effect, but it's important that territories with multiple effects stacked (i.e. Caras Galadhon) should be easier to defend. Also I can't incorporate these bonuses into the baseline stats, because the plains bonus is attack only, while the rest are defense only. A 4/4 unit with excellent tactics acts as a 6/4 on plains and 4/6 on hills, I could technically make it a 5/5 but then the territory effects would need to be +1/-1 and -1/+1 and that's hardly a simplification. Maybe versatility is a better name than tactics though.

    I admit the strategic role of charge is not very unique, it's essentially just "very good at attacking on plains, with a twist". But if I see my opponent buy charging units, I'm not worried for my cities, I'm worried that I'll be forced to retreat from open terrain and keep my army behind the lines because exposing them is a death sentence. I know what to be worried about, so my opponent has made a strategic choice.

    Dragons can't evade, but the winged nazgul can, and yes, they are very scary.

    As for complicated calculations, the battle calculator will do that for you if you need the exact numbers, but most of the time simple heuristics are enough. Charge is very good in plains, less so in hills or if there is a river etc., you don't need to memorize the every single number.

    @mortetvie Anti-air attacks are still a thing. The balance obviously went out the window a long time ago, pretty much every unit will need to be rebalanced. There will also be quite a few new units, while some others will be retired. In general, it's too early to worry about balance at this stage.

  • @alkexr I primarily play evil on the map. Currently, it seems to have too much of an advantage because of the multi-hit units and more units than in prior version. I suppose some balance changes are coming?

    Also, do ranged units still do a hit on flying units like they used to? If so, I think keeping flank is a must because that is pretty much one of the main strategies for evil to counter massed archers responding to flying nazgul/dragons. Also, having cheap goblin archers in a stack is probably one of evil's best ways to deal with eagle spam.
