@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

@VictoryFirst heh heh exit code 1

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.

@Ozymandiaswept Oh i missed ya . I replied to the other thread. Let us know if you still need help. We'll get you sorted [image: rock-on.png]

@CalculatorAuxo are you on Mac ?

Also, you get a NoSuchElementException when doing a battle with the UK-aaGun unit: [image: 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: 4d5afbaa-b922-4031-9a53-9961e87b81b3-image.jpeg] In other words, "British withdraw?" should come below "Germans notify AA casualties".

@iratoric That's great. I can't wait to produce the game, but I'm so busy nowadays and don't have much time. But it will have to be created one day.

@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 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

@Galloca You may want to checkout my thread, https://forums.triplea-game.org/topic/889/roger-s-scenario-thread/983. I discuss mods that I play vs the AI.

@RogerCooper I think the option you are looking for is "maxConstructionsPerTypePerTerr" as there no "maxConstructionsPerType". Cheers...

@wc_sumpton said: Have you tried switching around the connections. @victoryfirst this makes sense to me, so I'd try it, or look at how they're listed which would be the same thing. Idk though. I'd also try it because that's what wc suggested lol but Infantry usually show first in the purchase window in most games and they are usually listed first in UnitList and Unitattachment so maybe some sort of similiar thing is going on with the connections

@wc_sumpton Thanks! I will will experiment.

Late fighters are balanced around with other units and techs.

@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....

@Kindwind A neural net certainly makes more sense than a LLM. I didn't see anything obviously illegal in the play, but you didn't document the non-combat moves which caused a problem with your previous model As you noted, your neural net is inferior to your algorithmic WeakAI, which is itself comparable to TripleA's Easy AI. However it does attack and would beat TripleA's Do Nothing AI, which is something. (I have seen a GGP (Ludii) that plays Chess so poorly that it has trouble against random play). However, that it can't beat the training AI seems to point to a fundamental weakness with this sort of neural net. Note that AlphaZero played 44,000,000 games of Chess in its training process (600 years on your computer), and Chess is much simpler game computationally.
