@gamerman01 Yeah, I know the rules but I also think I understand how you mean AAA does it wrong. Something to keep in mind. Thanks!

[gamerman01]

OK, finally got it. And I feel your pain.

All defending units should roll at once after any defending subs’ surprise strikes and corresponding attacker ship casualty choices.

In person you’d roll air and naval separately because attacking subs can only be taken as casualties to the extent defending ships scored hits, but you don’t require a casualty choice after only rolling the ships. That’s the problem in TripleA

[AndrewAAGamer]

@gamerman01 Thanks!

I was asking how to restore casualties during a TripleA battle for the reason you mentioned, incorrectly having to choose casualties too soon, and for the sometimes I fat finger a button and accidentally pick the wrong casualty and go “Noooo, not that one!” Good to know there is no secret way to fix it that I was unaware of. I do like your idea of rolling additional rounds outside of TripleA and fixing it that way. Learned something.

TripleA is wrong in lots of issues, this being one. You need to know the rules to make sure you are playing the game correctly. I can’t even count how many times in face to face games I have had to point out something a person was doing was against the rules only to have them say “TripleA does it that way”.

I agree with you I think the reason TripeA screws up is it needs to determine air hits versus ship hits just for the subs with no spotting destroyers present. Would be nice if it would let you roll all dice and know which ones could go anywhere and which ones could not go on a sub. Asking too much probably.

[gamerman01]

You might want to experiment in local. Roll a round of combat, take a casualty choice, then edit some units out and some in.

It freaked out when I did it with our 97 battle, but I do know if you edit all the defending units off the board, Triple A will stop rolling dice. Unless it’s changed in a newer version. Oh shoot, I’ll just try it out now.

@gamerman01 One hit in SZ97?

[gamerman01]

Eh, I’m not even able to get into edit mode during a battle now. So yeah, my solution of going straight to the forum dice, wait a bit so you can prove the MARTI dice came at a later time than your forum dice, and edit to correct result at the end.

Maybe what I was thinking of is I have edited all of the loser’s units off the board after resolving on the forum, and then Triple
A doesn’t roll any unwanted dice. But now I can’t access edit mode in the middle of the battle.

So it still works, if you resolve the rest on the forum, then wait so there’s no dispute about MARTI e-mails, then delete the rest of the units

No map - did you hit it with all Italian naval and the bomber?

[Pejon_88]

@gamerman01 Yup, three boats plus bomber.

[gamerman01]

You’re getting such bad dice it’s making my casualty choices hard

[gamerman01]

Did the sub hit?

Good point. Wouldn’t want my opponent saying I was only rolling in the forum because I didn’t like the real marti result.

[Pejon_88]

@gamerman01 I reckon this game is over unfortunately, so had to do the only thing I could at his point. A desperate two-nation attack.

[Pejon_88]

@gamerman01 Nope cruiser.

[Pejon_88]

@andrewaagamer Haha yeah that would be bad. Be extra careful announcing the intention in such a situation.

[gamerman01]

Just a few more seconds. My OTHER kid called about changing job advice :)

[gamerman01]

I think the decision is difficult because they both are about the same…

Lose the cruiser

[Pejon_88]

@gamerman01 two more hits with CR and Bomber.

[gamerman01]

It made you choose casualties before rolling the fighters, didn’t it?
Let’s see…
