@Panzerstahl-Helm-0 Right arm. Looks as if tommy had a tough go of it, although sometimes the stats can be misleading. Just a reminder to Sir Alex @alexander that ANZC up as adolph's thirst for conquest has knocked Italia out of the game Prost

@Nothingtoseehere hey heading to lobby

@beelee Congratulations on your victory! I learned some new things in this game for sure. I had never played against a strategy of all Axis assets converging on the commies before. Which ultimately resulted in my defeat but now I have plans on how to counter that the next time. So with that, FDR and Sir Winston agree to sue for peace. I think this is a game where Total Victory conditions could have the game go several turns longer. But I am good with not going down that road

lol [image: 1788159987511-screenshot-from-2026-08-31-02-05-56.png] Commies should get it back but it's not a given Lets see new rules I think game keeps going even if they don't. Gotta check

@panzerstahl-helm-0 Guten Tag Herr Panzer Just got your mail. I think the colors are to identify the player. I don't think they're necessary other than bringing some color to the page but you have already done that Also, we'll run out of colors at some point so I wouldn't use them. I added my last game with Trout to Victorys. Idk if you want us to post the results in a thread and ping you so you can add them ? Too many cooks in the kitchen type thing is my concern although I don't mind hand editing the turn into the year if it can't be automated. Anyway, let me know how you want to handle that. I'll try and get A-Bomb fixed today. Yea in map properties you can change the color of the Players. The ocean is more difficult to do and may be a more permanent change. I can't remember. Elk has it in one of his player help guides. I think it was in this thread or the multi where I replied about the color. I'll see if I can find it. Edit It was in the multi https://forums.triplea-game.org/topic/4269/multi-game-2-barnee-trout-vs-alex-panzer/321?page=17 and also a few posts up in this one. [image: 1788026235785-screenshot-from-2026-08-29-12-57-03.png] Edit 2 A-Bomb is fixed. Won't work on our game but that's OK. We can edit if needed. I pinged everyone at the map thread, so just make sure everyone on 2.6 before starting any Tourney games. Edit 3 I am unable to reply or edit my post on the Tournament thread. Here is the updated New 2.61 save Wiking-Con World Tournament Qualifier 2027 Triplea Game Start Take 2.tsvg Edit 4 Playing my test game on the lobby lol [image: 1788158253183-screenshot-from-2026-08-31-01-37-13.png]

You can use this one.

That puts G bank at 105. I can fix that on G9 or you are welcome to do it on your ANZAC turn

@Ozymandiaswept said: An unexpected error occurred! IllegalStateException: Couldn't find an account with the username ozymandiaswept in the selected forum. Please double-check: 1) The selected forum 2) The spelling of your username 3) If your account is correctly registered at the selected forum Lol I added that error message to the game. It is supposed to be more clear for users how to fix the problem. Did you check option 2? Either way, it does not matter as PBF on the TripleA server does not work at the moment. You either have to choose PBEM and manually post the turn summary as pointed out by @beelee above, or you'd have to move to the Axis and Allies forum where you can use PBF.

@wc_sumpton Thanks! I will will experiment.

@Trout Oh boy. That sounds rough. Getting ready to look at it now. Had to take a nap. Only had 3 hours sleep and kept waking up every hour. I know there's nothing I can do about stuff out of my control and stressing about it doesn't help but knowing that and being able to do anything about it are two different things lol Game History Round: 2 Purchase Units - Russians Note to players Russians: It is Late 1940 and the Red Army has begun Organizing Army Groups.

@RogerCooper said: It seems strange to not build anything. I understand this. The first problem was that the AI player was not purchasing anything. Now the AI can purchase. Will the AI make a purchase, depends now on the AI logic. Cheers...

@TheDog I have a specirfic TripleA version with some specific xml files for games like TWW and I have 2/3 curent games so it is not so easy....

@panther Please move this topic to the Tournament section. this is the proper place. thanks

@alexander @trout @panzerstahl-helm-0 Here's the save if you guys wanna double check me. Here's the TT and Options. [image: 1787780384411-screenshot-from-2026-08-26-16-39-22.png] [image: 1787780532054-screenshot-from-2026-08-26-16-42-00-resized.png] Note that "King Tiger" shuts off the Heavy SS ones too. Edit Also until Victory finishes the fix, you need to add 2 to the 2nd SBR roll when using the Heavies. The first roll works correctly. Edit 2 Here's the new save with A-Bomb fix Edit 3 Here's the save for 2.61 and the Kazis Wiking-Con World Tournament Qualifier 2027 Triplea Game Start Take 2.tsvg

@CalculatorAuxo are you on Mac ?

Also, you get a NoSuchElementException when doing a battle with the UK-aaGun unit: [image: 1787472150909-c80a9ad1-4141-4dac-a091-41bd276796e3-image.jpeg] In this battle, I gave the British infantry, tank and aaGun the ability to retreat on the first round of combat. When choosing to retreat and selecting a territory, it immediately throws NoSuchElementException and the game crashes. I think that is caused because there is a phase where the aaGun shoots at the air units and that comes after the phase where the British decide to retreat. This results in a phase where the aaGun cannot shoot at the air units. I think it's better to move the decision to retreat for the defender after AA fire, according to the North Africa rules. [image: 1787472563261-4d5afbaa-b922-4031-9a53-9961e87b81b3-image.jpeg] In other words, "British withdraw?" should come below "Germans notify AA casualties".

@malmessi It is in game in the usual place Help> Game Notes

@Cernel Yea I'm not certain either but like you, I thought we were supposed to have 15. The reason I mention it again, besides potentially paying for a service we aren't receiving, there's usually only 1 available bot or sometimes none. I'm glad the lobby still popular but I was hoping to play on it again since new maps are now supported. Anyway, it seemed noteworthy to mention again

@TheDog Many thanks for the kind welcome and quick and considerate reply! I'm really blown away by the depth and customisation that this map has! Thanks again for all your work in making it happen
