Please declare a casualty,
The first round was an obvious choice, but if you clean me out in this battle, one could argue he would have saved a transport. Unlikely, but I want to make sure, thank you!
-
I didn’t know you could post to the forum in the middle of your turn. I’ll have a look.
-
Max defense (so transport first)
-
Thank you,
I’m glad you’ve discovered the mid-game posting.Now I wonder (because some very experienced and successful Triple A players are unaware) whether you know about the game notes feature in Triple A! I’ll explain a bit more after posting my turn.
And I feel bad, I am exploiting the very bad luck you had, but I’d better or you could make me pay, later. Classic is such a crazy shoot from the hip game compared to the later ones - a reminder that A&A should not be taken too seriously

The dice did deliver you a 33% result in the big air/fleet battle, so I won’t feel QUITE as bad, but the China J1 dice were just devastating.
So if you go to view -> show comment log, you will see that players can enter notes that are kept.
Since I learned last year in my re-entry to Classic about the whole limited units available thing.The_Good_Captain tells me the goal is to implement a feature into TripleA that will track the remaining units (not an issue at all if you’re playing on a board with no missing pieces!) in a year.
Until then, I think game notes is definitely the way to go.
If you buy an AA or IC, enter a comment that updates the count.
This way we can also watch out for bombers and carriers, especially, as well.Watch out, there’s only 1 IC left!

I used to be indignant, years ago, when some would refer (online) to Axis and Allies as a “beer and pretzels game”. Well I don’t remember what version they were referring to, but I see they have a good point if it’s Classic.
It’s great, compared to the much more complicated versions, Classic kind of forces you to just have fun. @The_Good_Captain
