      Hi everybody,

      I'm new to Triple A as well as to the forum.

      I am Belgian and live in Ypres, the well-known WW1 battlefield (close to Dunkirk - just over the border in France). I was a tour guide during 20 years for that infamous battefield.

      I played a few Axis and Allies boardgames (oldest version) I have a few hours to spend right now and would like to play a learning game with someone. Is someone available for that?

      Also open to any advice for a new player.

      Greetings,
      Lionel

      PS. I hope I'm posting this message on the correct spot. If not, please correct me.
      😉

          Thanks a lot for the welcome and the useful userhelp files.

          I'll check them (looks like a lot). Going through the stuff in the coming days.

          I'll still ask the question in general if someone can help me through some kind of chat of ideally for instance through a longer phone call through whatsapp. The best way to learn is probably to go hands-on.

          I only know 1 map and that's from the boardgame. I have a version that is at least 30 years old (spring 1942). But seldom played it lately.

          I am interested in playing online and would like some advice as to which one of that long list of versions is most played. I guess that will be my best chance of finding 1 or more players to play with.

          I'm also interested in giving a game by mail a serious try.

            @lionelr You should try playing against the AI. It is a good enough to be a challenge but you will be able to beat it once you have somer experience.

              Thanks very much, Roger, for the hint. I am going through the tutorial and learning much at the moment.

                Welcome to the site lion !

                You can go to the lobby, hit the "Play Online" button when you first start triplea.

                Say hello and tell people your new and would like to learn how to play. Sooner or later someone will ask you to play 🙂

                I guess the "Play By Forum" as good as any place to ask for a game. You can also ask at the A&A site https://www.axisandallies.org/forums/category/27/find-online-players

                  thanks for this hint too.

                  I'll try both of them, but one at the time.
