@LaFayette I could also just leave it white and let Russia have a special one. I don't know how to hue shift.

Been playing Europe instead of the whole world. Couple of thoughts.

I am playing all of one side against the AI.

Seems to favor the axis quite a bit. As the allies it went to turn 15 before i was tipped the scales. As axis, i feel like i am in the winning position on turn 5, just a matter of time. I think part of that is the size of the navies.

The rally points from IW could be a good addition to this map. USA had difficulties finding a place to put a new factory.

Germany and USA had fairly similar colors. Germany was also similar to one of the Balkan nations, but that isn't as big of a deal, as they are allied.

After like 2 turns, iron was not much of a factor for me. I don't know how much you wanted that to be a factor, but the fuel is what really limits things for me. AI seems to use more of its iron though.

SS troops seem to need a higher TUV value. They are picked first for casualties.

@Mas-N

line 2922 of POS2. Wouldn't that do what you want? Or am i reading something wrong?

@AprilForever It is fun to play Australia and to optimize its play. Well-timed attacks and retreats can throw the Japanese off-balance and divert the Japanese enough to give the Allies victory.

I general, it is more fun to play one of the Allies with everyone else on AI and try to depend on your AI allies.

I've saw overall negative views for this map campared to revised and anniversary no idea if it because of balance or fun issue. The vanilla one is biased towards Axis. Even inTR set up they still give 6 bid to allies.

I think it would be better with Italian presence and reducing armour cost to 5.

@ff03k64

In the unitAttachment there is the 'canAirBattle' option. Setting it to 'true' should allow those unit to participate in air battles prior to the normal ground battle.

Cheers...

@eregister I looked at that save. The USA player doesn't have the buyTank production rule. Looking through the history, it doesn't show a trigger having run after the armour technology was gained.

I looked at other turns when technologies were purchased and I don't see any triggers running after the technologies were purchased.

I played one round where I used "edit game" to give the armour technology to USA. After the technology activation phase, the history showed the trigger having run.

What version are you using? And could you make a save on the turn after you purchase the armour technology?

@Trevan That looks like a good generalization of the AA rules.

Here is the fixed version. AAZ.zip

@RogerCooper

I did not find a connection between '18 Sea Zone' and '29 Sea Zone' for 'Suez Canal'. Also there is no connection between '20 Sea Zone' and '12 Sea Zone' for 'Panama Canal'. There is a connection between '18 Sea Zone' and '19 Sea Zone' for 'Turkish Straits'. Maybe adding the following connections will help.

Not sure just guessing here.

Cheers...

Im on Windows 10, Java 11.0.6 and AAA=2.3.21895
I too had to dl it, it works for me, I too have never played it.

In general, 1941 has more options than 1942, while 1940 can have too many options, making it hard to balance the game.

On my Wiki here my articles by year (not all are scenarios)

1937 5
1938 0
1939 124
1940 73
1941 204
1942 233
1943 11
1944 21
1945 16

@Trevan
Thanks! Im on your factory building v2.3.21895

I will raise an issue on GitHub.

Thanks for finding that. I think the fix is for AA to not shoot at air transported units. On the flip side we should be sure they are removed as casualties if the transport is shot down.

It works now perfectly, unfortunately both Great war and GW1918 lack of png image. How do I can create relief tiles?

@Numetalfan That is from the wrong XML. Please look into the

It starts with

Just an observation but the AI Pirates and Indians are very active in early turns and make for really interesting dynamics, but after about turn 6 they become incredibly passive. Perhaps they assess the Player Nations as having strengthened into a threat not worth fighting against? It's a shame though.

Thanks for the insight. I totally take your word for it about balance of gameplay, not having played it yet.
Interesting, I went back into the map just now and saw something I had missed before. The banner page says "Version 1.9.3, It's December 8,1941", not the 7th, so perhaps the whole premise is that indeed the carriers and some battleships survived, which is reality, and the Japanese retained the option of going back in for another strike to finish what they started.

@Black_Elk cool sketch. 🙂

Oh wow...didn't know those. They work perfect! Thanks to both of you!
