Trigger FreeUKTanks: British has 2 shermen placed in Atlantic Ocean Convoy
This is quite funny - the unit is called “sherman” but TripleA apparently has an in-built plural feature where it creates plural forms of words on its own. As far as I know, it simply adds and “-s” to all words except for the word “infantry”, because the plural of “infantry” is also “infantry”. But if you change the word “infantry” slightly, it does add an “-s” again (“mech_infantrys”).
But for “sherman”, it detects the word “man” in it and its plural is “men”, so it turns this word into “shermen” instead of “shermans”. This is most likely an error in whatever code deals with this.

I4 combat.tsvg im attacking bir hachiem. did you want to spend one supply to defend with him?
-
You are crossing the land mine in BIR-SIW, which is now if I am not mistaken controlled by me because I am the only one having land units there.
So first the mine should be detonated for before I should decide whether to stay or retreat (I choose to detonate the mine).
-
@VictoryFirst huh, wow - guess you’re right. I guess that’s something that’s more obvious when you’re on the physical board and I absolutely would not have put that there last turn with this information but shrug yet another learning experience… detonate my mine? lol
-
@VictoryFirst this is probably too much to ask but is there anyway to allow the line of the territory to cut through each bubble? Then at least the side on which the mine is placed would be more visible?
-
@VictoryFirst i just read your discord notes - lol nice
-
@The_Good_Captain I already suspected you were not aware of this 😜
Yep, in the end, what you just said works best (splitting the border territories into two). This makes it immediately clear in which territory the land mines are. Now it is pretty ambiguous.
Let’s just play on for fun. I feel bad for taking advantage of your oversight, however in this case I don’t see an easy way to correct it. And we are mostly playing this game to test for bugs. We can always play more game after this on a more polished module and then you can take revenge on me 😁
I will detonate the mine, however I will give you the possibility to your Italian turn, now that you know about the mines. Do you want to make any changes to your turn?
-
@VictoryFirst all sounds good, no changes necessary. lets proceed.
mine roll [dice 3d10]

3d10: 10, 2, 6
-
@VictoryFirst ill leave an infantry behind. will you defend?
-
Yes I will defend here
-
Actually I think I am forced to defend because the only territories I can retreat to have the maximum stacking limit.
