@lafayette My changes for the following are still not refected; Uploaded a much smaller preview.png to 1888A_steam_and_steel, 2MB to 721KB, it is still not listed. shogun_advanced renamed Preview.png to preview.png where no image was shown before, hopefully that displays the image as expected. Please check and advise.

@RogerCooper I think the ahistorical presence of the Bolsheviks in Siberia makes the game more interesting and provides more options to both sides. I haven't played against the AI in a long time. All I remember is that the AI is worse at handling naval stuff, not necessarily specific to the Americans on this map. There used to be a tech that gave transports +2 movement, but it was nerfed to +1. Not sure if that would make any difference to the American AI's behavior.

@Ted-Self Check out https://axisandallies.fandom.com/wiki/Axis_%26_Allies_Wikipedia for a list of every mod (except a rew recent mods). For ahistorical mods see https://axisandallies.fandom.com/wiki/Category:Hypothetical (although that includes a lot of maps I thought looked interesting) and https://axisandallies.fandom.com/wiki/Category:Fictional

@Roybot https://github.com/triplea-game/triplea/releases This should be on the downloads page, not hidden in the forum

@McMoney To credit wc_sumpton for his genius help, here is how. Download The Pact of Steel 2 (PoS2) seen as The Pact of Stee Open its xml look at the end of the xml to see how its done. [image: 1780296578574-7e74acde-165d-476b-a7c3-d0c430bd036e-image.jpeg]

@GREGOREK What I think you are after and I too, is more control over the production_tabs.XXX.properties Here is an example from 1888a_steam_and_steel production_tabs.Autocrats.properties If only the tech researched units would appear in the order defined in the production_tabs file and just added to the end. Also the Edit Mode unit display should be consistent, with no production_tabs with production_tabs

@GREGOREK yea I've mentioned that as well. Not sure where it's at but I think Dan said they're gonna go with a new one. Blue something. Returns it back to the previous size roughly. Still wish one could customize, as my eyes are gonna just keep getting worse Edit Here it is https://forums.triplea-game.org/topic/4306/switch-to-flatlaf-for-look-feel-updated-skin

@VictoryFirst How bout "Onward Christian Soldiers" https://www.hymnal.net/en/hymn/h/871 Edit Or some sort of drum beat https://audiojungle.net/search/war drums but yea, the air raid kinda harsh. Not to mention it's still used to this day. Don't wanna freak anyone out in a current warzone

This is now available through the in-game downloader.

@beelee Again, I reference PoS2; isAAforBombingThisUnitOnly values: allows this unit to be an AA gun only when this unit is directly attacked by a strategic bombing raid (currently defends against all strategic bombing attacks in this territory, not just against this unit). it will not defend against a normal attack. There are 2 units in Germany with "isAAforBombingThisUnitOnly" so both units defend against SBR attacks against that territory, PoS2 clearly states not just against this unit. And again the PoS2: typeAA. values: any string which identifies this type-group of aa guns. Only 1 aa gun per group may fire (unless you've set maxAAattacks). (defaults to "AA") Warning: all units with the same typeAA must have the same dice sides, or else you will experience weird results. So, if both units have the same "typeAA" as "AA", the default if missing, then they fire as a group, with only the best unit defending. SBR units attack a territory, only the damage is applied to a selected target. This is how aaGuns work in 'classic' style maps. They can defend against SBR, even though they are not targeted. Cheers...

@VictoryFirst I think I recovered that one hmm ... well maybe not lol You wanna send that one too Edit Or just send everything you got

@PeleKen Hi Pele Let us know if you have any trouble. Have Fun Gaming

@mickAAMOUSE yea it took me 2-3 turns to get used to some of them at first as well too Now I can't play with the old ones
