What TripleA version to install?
Current stable, best for older maps and lobby players.
https://github.com/triplea-game/triplea/releases/tag/2.5.22294Last version that centers on the active player's capital
https://github.com/triplea-game/triplea/releases/tag/2.7.15025Technology tab split from players tab on to its own tab. (Really good for 1888a as it has a lot of Tech)
https://github.com/triplea-game/triplea/releases/tag/2.7.15256.

Update 1st post to include
15256 Technology tab split from players tab on to its own tab. (Really good for 1888a & Total World War as they have lots of Tech)
Shows any map missing icons as a placeholder square icon.

With the new look and feel website, the Markdown has changed and the 1st post needed to be updated, now looking much better, just like the old version.
Also, here is my recommendation for a stable 2.7 pre-release
2.7.15256
Faster than 2.5
Technology tab split from players tab on to its own tab. (Really good for 1888a & Total World War as they have lots of Tech)
Shows any map missing icons as a placeholder square icon.
Shows on status bar the relationship (war, neutral, allied) of territories (Really good in FFA maps)

Added to the Axis & Allies style table, where;
Complexity where 1 is simple, 4 is complex in comparison.
Features of the boardgame/Triple map.Please correct me, if its wrong.
@beelee
If you write some feature text I will paste it in for your UHD 1940 map.
Should your map have a Complexity of 5, as you have added lots to the base game?Link to see the changes, scroll down a bit to Axis & Allies style

Hi Dog
I'm guessing you're referring to the Expansion mod me and the guys play "Global 40 Expansion UHD Boxes". I would just give it a complexity level of 1 higher than whatever the Global 40 OOB game has.
Edit
I guess something like this is what you're suggesting ?Global 40 Expansion UHD Boxes
It uses the UHD Mega Map based off of the Bung,Veqryn "World War II Global 1940 2nd Edition" Map.
This is a House Rule Mod for "World War II Global 1940 2nd Edition". It was Created by The Captain and Company
