      @beelee I wonder if that "notification" is some popup that gets blocked? No that makes no sense... I just don't get it.

      Anyway I have the same triplea engine so I think the issue is in the game number because all my new stuff does not see @trout 's files and complains that this stuff is from a newer game.

      So where can I download older versions of the game/map not the engine?

            one other thing to try. Notifications could be disabled. You have to go to "Engine Preferences"

                @beelee ok well I will redo on that map tho I made no changes.

                Also note that I cannot find any way to show a window like you did that shows "engine Preferences". could you tell me how you showed that window?

                    this is how to get old versions of the "Game" https://forums.triplea-game.org/topic/4025/how-to-dl-old-map-versions-in-git

                    Start triplea and show me what you get when it first starts

                      yes mac and triplea don't play well together. Actually it's basically a windows world we all have to live in whether we like it or not 🙂

                      Perhaps you could do a self help for mac users post and put it unde rPlayer Help

                      Edit
                      as others will surely have the same problem and Idk what you did to make it work

                          @beelee I would LOVE to help Mac users. The entire point of Mac, however, is to be easy to use. So I am not sure that I could say anything of value... hmmm. I will think about this.

                            yea i just mean for now what you did to resolve your recent problem.

                            I will test your save now. Screenshot looks good 🙂

                            Edit
                            hmm ... looks clearer than the windows and linux ones. The in games look good with them but posting shots with them not nearly as clear

                            looks like that ss fckr wanting to go into Switzerland too lol Good thing they got a Artillery piece pointed at him 🙂

                            Edit 2
                            Yea that fires for me. I'm sure it'll work for @Trout too

                              @johnnycat Yes, I can open that one! Eggs fully scrambled in SZ 110. But only over easy in other SZ's. The boys in Wales and Scotland are too busy watching rugby to fly today.

                                  just a heads up but the upgraded Fctry should be placed 1st Placement Phase. No biggie here, as you don't have enough dudes to place to need it.

                                    You two are cute - total Axis and Allies synergy posting at the identical time, lol...

                                    OK Here is my first German turn knowing more than my last first German turn... is this a somewhat typical opening? I guess I have to play more German games to see what the opening should be. I'm tempted to ignore the UK and France and just plow to Moscow but I dunno.

                                    And there are some special Capital Taking rules or just Moscow?

                                      @beelee OMG - so that means that I could “use” it the turn I place it. Like that magic aircraft carrier right!

                                      So some units are totally use and abuse and some are like, wait wait, gotta wait your turn…. I LOVE IT !!!

                                      As I said I don’t care about makes sense or feels like should be or not… I just want to learn what IS and use that to victory, Moooooohahahaha

                                        Not a bad startegy well except for the France part 🙂 However the Soviet Conscription usually slows the Wehrmacht down for a couple turns and the UK with Paras and LCVs, if not blocked, keep the Western Front active to a certain extent.

                                        My guess is that is done for Historical reasons mostly, although Dieppe did happen. But primarily to force the Reich to leave some Forces in the West.

                                        Otherwise Conscripts or no, SSR would be fckd 🙂 Idk though, I usually get caught up playing with the U-boats and have never done a full on fck everything else attack on Moscow.

                                          yes

                                          however you would have been better off spending the 3 bucks on a Inf as you have plenty of current placement capacity.

                                          Also, if/when you move the Fctry Underground to avoid Strategic Bombing Raids, SBR, you will lose the upgrade.

                                          So the better move is to move underground and then upgrade capacity if needed 🙂

                                            If you take Moscow, you win. Unless I take it back on a Soviet counter-attack. The only special capitol rules are Flak Towers which are normally only bought when the capitol is threatened but it's the best defensive build in the game. But since they cannot attack and not move from the capitol, their only role is capitol defense. The other one is that two Panzer Generals can be active in capitol defense instead of the usual rule of one only. Besides that nothing special. Take the capitol and you get all of his bank vaults. Then if you survive the counter-attack you win the game.
