Game 1 EXP Trout vs beelee

beelee

Since this your first game, I suggest you play Allies, as Germany has the most special units.

I just pinged @VictoryFirst but it's late where he's at. He's been pretty busy, so I don't expect him to have time to play but if he does, he can jump in at any point.

Hopefully he can send some advisors or even a SOG or two

I'm in central USA fwiw

I'll probably go step by step till you get the hang of triplea and how it works with the mod.

G1 coming up

Edit
Oh I didn't get your new game email. You can send it in chat

Edit 2
Just found your email G1 on it's way

EXP Game 1 Trout Start.tsvg

This is just the start of Game with Changer. He's everybody's buddy. Makes the LMs and Increased Pacific Islands work

So, you DL the save and put it in your savedGames folder which is inside your triplea folder. Usually, you want to do a test turn in "Start Local Game".
Once you are satisfied with it, Restart the save and hit "Play By Email". Bottom right will show that "Dice Server" is on.

At end of turn, you hit "View Turn Summary" and ctrlc ctrla. Then make a new save and post to the thread.

Scramble 110 or 111 ?

Hey beelee. I am not keeping up with you so far. I downloaded the G40 map with Captain's HRE and downloaded the Start Game link so my screen is showing the starting map. But I can't tell how to save the file or go from here.

beelee

@trout

yea, so click on the save and download it. Then you want to to

triplea folder
savedGames
put the save in there.

Then you can fire it up in local mode and go to History, top left under Game, or ctrlh and click on what happened.
The first German turn is kinda busy, but their purchase is about 2/3 of the way down on purchase.

Oh yea, just heard from @VictoryFirst and he's real busy but would like to be part of your first game He was thinking he could be USSR and ANZAC and you can do the heavy lifting with Uncle Sam and the blokes.

Anyway, you can discuss here or start a chat with him. You click on his icon/avatar thingy and then start a new chat with VictoryFirst

Edit 3
heh heh late in the day and i got a buzz on So, for right now, just need to know if you want to scramble to the above battles in 110 or 111.

I'll then finish my turn and post the turn summary and the save along with any comments.

Then you can DL save, see what happened and run a test turn in Local mode, then fire up the save again and hit "Play By Email" do your turn. and hit "View Turn Summary" and copy it by going ctrla ctrlc, then make a new save and post to the thread.

We'll get you sorted I struggled my first time, actually multiple times lol but I was an outlier you'll pick it up quick

Trout

Thanks. I am playing a local game now to get a feel for the mechanics. So far I have only come across two issues. First is I cannot figure out how to do Strat Rail Movement. Second is that it appears you can build your units and then move them same turn which is against the rules. Everything else appears to be fine through R1 turn
