Start of a new v3 anniversary tourney?

Blasherke

@prastle Ok I understand, no problem. Regarding your statement about less interest in AA50, may I ask what game version is hot nowadays in the lobby?

Greetings,

B.

Blasherke

@prastle Never tried it, but maybe "play-by-forum" is a go-between option?

prastle

@Blasherke its same as per always a lot of revised and nwo rest a mix and a
lot of global

Hi All - I thought that it might be helpful to explain how PBEM works, because in my personal experience, a lot of people like to play live, but they may have a perception that PBEM is too difficult, or don't know how to do it. So, here's an easy to follow guide !!

The process to play PBEM is very simple. First, you just need to register on the Marti dice server. This will allow you to get the dice rolls for each and every round of battle. The link is here:

http://dice.tripleawarclub.org/

Next, the process is the following. Your opponent will make his normal moves, and any results from the dice will come to you basically real-time. Your opponent will then save the game file (or the program has an automatic option as well), and send you an email with the newly updated game file.

Once received, you simply follow the same steps:

download the file that your opponent sends to you in an easy to find folder
start TripleA software
click "open saved game"
click on the file and then click "open"
then, click on "start PBEM"
then, click on "play"

After that, you just make your moves, and then save the file and send it back to your opponent in an email !

Very simple, once you get the hang of it !!

If you have any questions, please feel free to let me know, and I am happy to play a few sample moves with you by PBEM if you need assistance. My email = 5683deltium@gmail.com

Cheers, Deltium

Well, it is quite variable from time to time.

Better you just join the lobby an see yourself.

For example, as now, counting all games in progress with 2 or more players inside (some might be not really in progress):

1x Big World 2
1x Big World
1x Neuschwabenland
1x New World Order
3x World At War
1x WWII Europe
3x WWII Global
5x WWII Revised
1x WWIIv3
1x WWIIv5

Lately prastle accounts for the majority of the WWIIv3 games played, maybe. It is not as popular as it used to be. Normally I see more game of the Big World v3 Rules mod than v3 itself.

prastle

@Cernel true cer i left out waww and tww

prastle

@Blasherke sadly play by forum still broken but
@RoiEX has a fix that needs to be installed and then all need a new dl

i imagine this will occur once they release a new stable

just what i know i could be incorrect

Off topic again but, since there is a BW tournament going on, I would say that is the big absent, that was also the default TripleA game when it had installed maps.

Right now I can see going on in lobby:

Big World games (basics and 2) = 3

New World Order games = 1 (not the normal one, but Lebowsky, actually)

World At War games = 1

Global games = 6

Revised games = 4

Big World, in all its variants summed up, is definitely more popular than v3 and it is pretty close to New World Order, in popularity.

Revised and Global are for sure the most popular games, tho. Yet, nobody ever hosted a ToC Global.

prastle

@Cernel completely agree cernel Thus I mentioned to a few players to host their own tourneys. Its np opening rooms for more but interest is needed first. The example being your mentioned bw tourney that hasn't been posted here. He is just using the chalonge bracket. (Kinda sad about that) Hopefully it will grow.

@prastle Game 1 of Prastle Allies vs Raville Axis

Ravile Wins with Japanese Taking Moscow rnd 9. Allies could have retaken but it would have been retaken again by Japs.

Excellent game as always my friend. Looking forward to our Game 2.
