CRUNCH time with my work. 6/30 deadline for a type of job that I haven’t done in more than 12 years. July will be better for my gaming needs.

OK, 6/30 ended up being a triple deadline. All done 6/29, so I’m feelin’ good now!

I remember the options I ruled out last time, 9 days ago, so aiming to complete R4 now

R4 attached

I apologize for the break. I hope it’s not too much trouble to get re-oriented. And thank you for your patience and understanding, much appreciated

Hey fellas,

long time no see:-)

Just wondering, is the post turn via tripleA client feature including showing turn histories in the posts gone for good?

[JDOW]

Just realized Gamer bought 3 Carriers with the US in the first 2 turns. Feels like a novelty as Gamer taught me to not overbuy carriers as they cannot fight and to leverage islands as carriers as good as possible^^

[farmboy]

@jdow its not, but to put it in you either need to use the prerelease or copy paste it manually.

[gamerman01]

Hi, JDOW, what a welcome surprise!

Something happened with version 2.5.222594, to some of us, and the summary doesn’t work. 2.6 whatever (there are various) that aren’t official yet, it does. And they made some nice little improvements like it actually keeps track of which ground are amphibious or not, but the battle calculator doesn’t pull in the units it’s supposed to (for me at least).

So… Me1945 and I discussed it and went with the .5

[gamerman01]

What a smack in the mouth, you pop back in and call me out for hypocrisy! :fearful:

It was a nice break for a while, here. Without you or Bold, nobody has been poking me.
A guy can adjust his strategy a little over the years, right?

(You are most welcome to comment as long as it doesn’t interfere with Me1945’s zen, don’t get me wrong)

<cough> I bought only 2 in the Pacific theater, though. The carrier buy US1 in the Atlantic is especially when I scramble G1 because Carrier can go out to sea with 2 planes US2 and that is the only way you can get fighters to London or Scotland US3 (crazy JDOW1’s excepted). I don’t know if anyone else ever takes advantage of the little 102 while USA is neutral rule :sunglasses: - I take some pride in that one.

I also like to think no one goes as light in the Pacific with carriers as I do but of course I can’t know that for sure either. :thinking_face:

Oh. Never thought of that, cool.

[gamerman01]

Oh, that’s right!

Me1945 did J3, so with only 3 production capacity at California, you tend to buy more expensive boats, so that is a factor, too <cough again>

[Me1945]

@gamerman01
NP. Thanks for coming back with the turn. I would need a couple days with my turn.

Nice to see you here.

@gamerman01
I am fine with the JDOW’s comments.

Also happened to me, I just searched to see what was going on. Seems like there was a forum update that messed things up.

[farmboy]

I imagine we just need to give them a bit of time and it will get sorted. But it does seem to be an issue with all the files.

[Me1945]

@farmboy Is there a hot line to place a ticket? Please share.

[farmboy]

@Me1945 I’m not sure. You can probably reach out to Panther or post in the forum discussion page https://www.axisandallies.org/forums/category/15/website-forum-discussion. Because the problems seem pretty widespread, I’m assuming that they will be aware pretty quickly and fix it.

[Me1945]

Thanks, farmboy. Just post/sent PM to Panther / djensen. Hope it’ll help.
Gamerman, as the moderator, can you please advise what is the best way to settle such the issues?

Yes, absolutely. There was no poking intended, just the opposite. I wanted to share once more who taught me countless lessons in A&A and whose style always inspired me:)

I agree no one goes lighter with Carriers than you and as said, I only wanted to express this always reminds me not to overbuy them. Always ask: what juice boats with attack value, planes or amphibious units I can buy instead:)
Vs J3 there isn’t much the US can buy in the Pacific and as the German fleet is still active, Allies need at least some kind of naval defense when trying to join the action in the European theatre.

Interesting game so far, will be fun to watch.
Good luck to both of you. See you around!

Ah and regarding no attachments can be posted: Back then, this happened frequently when the forum server was simply full.

I guess the admins have to run a purge and remove attachments from older games, that’s why, in case you browse the forum to look up older games, you won’t find any attachments in those threads.
