Game 1 EXP Trout vs Johnny Cat
-
@beelee Oh I See: CHEATERS
-
So you can try different things and it will make your real turn cleaner instead of undoing a lot stuff. If you mess up, you just do it over
-
-
@beelee OKIDOKI. I'll do a turn or three then gotta go to Hawaii for the holidays as I told Trout. Too bad Trout and I will have to start a new game as I liked my odds of that start...
-
@beelee Uh Oh - so why does the saved game start me as Germany? Or rather, I see a Germans Turn Summary. What exactly am I supposed to do next?
-
@beelee Not sure where my last post went but I was saying that I got from you a turn that still shows Germany up to bat. Is that intended?
-
So latest save I made is EXP Cat Test Game 2 G1.tsvg
That is end of German turn. Load it up and click through any prompts and SSR will show up
-
-
@johnnycat two files. Did I do it correctly ?
-
-
oh ? Maybe you got the save I missed it
Edit
Success ! I got the save. However, you are not allowed to place the dudes in the first place. Only special units and Infrastructure places in 1st place.
Elite Armour doesn't place either. I have fixed it for next update.
Edit
Ahh I see you did the turn summary too. I would separate them by a line or a space in the future. It's a little different than what we're used to but might be a mac thing -

@beelee Elite Armor doesn't place... and a million other things never worked for me in the months that I played this game.
Is there some sort of manual that specifies just these differences that require the editor to be used? That would be most helpful; even knowing it is buried in the standard rules for this game would be worth knowing.
-
Yea the Game Notes explain most of how triplea implements theCapatain's Expansion Rules.
It's under the "Help" tab top left
I always drag it down and make it bigger
Sadly, that window stays open when you go somewhere else.
Didn't used to. Sometimes i just narrow it if I wanna keep it open.I also have the Rules in a separate window that I can reference. Actually two. One for Table of Contents and one to scroll where i want to go.
-
I have no idea what to do next.
USA and China were easy turn 1.
But now I am onto the Brits and from the games I have played I recall seeing LOTS OF DEFENSES in India and other places but I have no idea how to buy that stuff. I thought I saw sea mines in India but that makes no sense.
And what are the two wheel Kaku things in China? Trains? How to use them?
I need some hints here. Obvious is to avoid a Sea Lion OP, and equally obvious is to buy a UK fleet too soon.
So what I should do next to make it challenging and how do I get those defenses going?
And how do I repair my battleship?
-
heh heh no worries brother
We're in test mode here Yea the wheel thingys are Rail units courteous of Hepps. Click on them and move to where the unit you want to move is and then click on the unit you want to move as well as the rail and you can then move to where you want to go.
Player Enforced movement as triplea will allow you to move through Territories you didn't control at the beginning of your turn.
I have to run a errsnd. Back on in about 20
Edit
I would give the Game Notes a full read. It'll take a while but will answer a lot of your questions -
@beelee Read that but still not much answers for what I need so I will ask you:
-
Do planes attack ships?
-
Are bombers still one of the best units or are they nerfed in this game as they are in other tripleA games?
-
What is with the cool pictures and boxes up top?
-
What happened to getting free painted game pieces?
-
-
@beelee ok so I ran the USA and China and not sure if I was supposed to break there but that would make little sense so I kept at it with the Brits.
All looked good until I see I bought two forts that could not place. I placed the 3 land mines in India and will have to use the editor later to active them I guess.
My battleship got repaired and I decided to wipe out the German fleet. Of course it wants to know if you want to scramble planes.
Here is the game. what I should do?
-
@johnnycat Oh yea, what makes what I am doing official and not just practice? I do not see anything tied into the dice roller...
-
Uh oh - I guess that was tied to the dice roller hahahaha
This is so confusing mate. Do MANY people really play this way ? I would think it too tedious. I love it tho... but still I am guessing it take months to finish a game. lol
