    @wc_sumpton Yeah, I initially wanted to figure out how to remove AA when disabled, but then I figured removing the AA capabilities of buildings would incentivize purchasing AA guns to protect them. I initially tried using "isAA" = "false", but this has the side-effect of making the game think it was an actual combat unit and therefore players could use them as sacrificial pawns and immediately deny the enemy their spoils if facing an overwhelming force, which was something I definitely didn't want either. You understood the original post correctly. I just decided to take a different route a day or two after posting.

    @falkon-powers Disregard, game as intended, I was mistaken V2 rather than V3 ruleset. Rusty memory on this map, been a few years... cheers!

    @thedog I made a new map, thanks for the encouragement. It's called Alexander350 (world conquest set in 350BC). .zip in Maps & Mods, tell me what you think. It does use modern region names (Oil Wars map), and units from Middle Earth with only minor tweaks.

    The PoliticalStateOverview.java file has the color coding for the three relationship archeTypes, meaning this functionality could be added but of course its not accessible from the mapmaking point of view. As there is no Devs working on TripleA at the moment this will not change any time soon.

    @thedog tooltips.properties is what I was missing. I'll have to review that map further. Looking right off, arena has a very accessible xml file. Thanks for the welcome and help!

    @beornthebold-0 This is the whole logic of being unable to move to someone's territories. It means that you can't move to someone's territories. You are not going to be able to get TripleA to move in some directions and not others. You could use triggered events to simulate the evacuation of a specific base, but it would be difficult to do this on a large scale.

    You need to set the information in the game options, it does not automatically determine AI status.

    @cernel Was there ever a way? Anyway then I guess a second version of at least the two most common maps would be hugely appreciated for us who like tech (2nd Version and 3rd Balanced)

    Been playing this map a bit again, and found a minor visibility issue to add issue 13 - unit visibility in Taiwan can be poor. I missed some Jap dive bombers in Taiwan; they really blend in due to how the territory and unit placements are setup. The unit border ends up in the same place as the territory border which means its outline doesn't really show, and it overlaps with the text of the province name.

    The Atlantic should be crossed in 2 rounds, the U-boat need a chance at attacking mid crossing

    3 or 4 or 6 turns per year but not 2. I would go with 4 turns/seasons per year.

    1941 GCD could have been 6 turns/year, but as we got better, settled for 4 turns/year.

    GCD usually lasts 18-24ish turns, but it is for solo play.

  • Fighters will be the same as in Axis & Allies 1914.

    So the Atlantic shouldn't be crossed in 1 round? The US would join in round 12 if 1 round represents 6 months, and the winner should emerge around round 18. I'm afraid it would be harder to balance the longer the game is supposed to last.

    Russia should be strong enough to last at least 12 rounds, but weak enough to collapse over the next few rounds. That doesn't look easy to balance to me.

    What about making 1 round = 4 months?

    In approximately how many rounds is 1941 GCD supposed to last?

  • @Schulz
    Sea, Air movement and Time all are constraining each other and they must be a compromise.

    In 1941 GCD, time is set at 3 months/turn, but this is only for technology, and as @iratoric says

    steamship of the time could easily make multiple Atlantic crossings in one month

    1941GCD part answer was ships move faster.

    Most Aircraft should move 2-4 TT/SZ, as this works for land, so SZ must fit this.

  • @Schulz I think you’re going to have a problem with setting a time scale because a lot can happen in 6 months, a steamship of the time could easily make multiple Atlantic crossings in one month.
