I mean if it helps I can provisionally offer you a mulligan on this game, or at least a redo if things get further along and there are no equivalent major swings in your direction.

I very much appreciate that but I’m trying this out across multiple games and I, of course, need to see it function in different conditions. I think very highly of you for offering though. Another note - TripleA doesn’t run sub combat order of operations correctly. Subs that are hit can/should fire back but subs that are not hit can submerge in lieu of returning fire (which TripleA does not support). I have to ask that if the French decide to engage those subs off Canada, could you please use the dice roller under the “Game” tab, select “Roll Dice” - and based off the hits/misses, I will decide to submerge or return fire. Hope that makes sense and apologies for the inconvenience.

I bungled the coastal artillery mechanic again but here’s the breakdown of what ended up happening:

UK Battleship Bombard: 1 hit
UK INF fire: 0 hits
UK ART fire: 2 hits

UK total: 3 hits

Edited in Coastal ART + 3 neutral INF + 1 INF fire (all @3): 2 hits.

So since no UK INF hit anyway I just accepted the outcome of the battle and edited the Coastal ART back out of Persia once the battle was over. Fortunately this time there was no actual impact on the outcome of the battle (Persia survives with 1 INF remaining). LMK if you’re all-good with this, otherwise just make whatever adjustments you need during O1.

What is it with these games between you and I in conjunction with consistently skewed results? If it makes you feel better/worse, I can assure you that this funky stuff isn’t happening in any of the other games I’m playing. With one or two BATTLES within each game as exceptions - these anomalous results are the exception and not the rule as they should be… lol

I’m not quite sure how it happened, but somehow SZ17’s mine got shifted to Ottoman ownership. I corrected it during France’s move.
