Huh, so now it breaks no copyrights?
Lol, anyone can see through it though.
Is there a way to override the system in tripleA (to allow for house rules)?
there are some house rules that are coded for, and they are available in the “options” menu before the game starts
and for everything else there is “edit mode” which allows you to do a ton of stuff
you can switch tabs in edit mode to move units, etc, not just the usual things (most people don’t know you can switch tabs in edit mode for different effects, i only found that out recently)
well, besides no longer referencing hasbro material, the game engine no longer ships with any maps that contain possible copyrighted material.
also, it is much more of a general war game engine than previous releases, which can be attested to in the wide variety of maps and rules that we have
i mean…. try downloading ‘zombieland’ and you will see that this is not just axis and allies anymore
Is there any AARe map for it. That’s the only Revised I ever play, and I would hate to be using edit mode every turn for it.

There is an enhanced Revised, but I think it is different than the one you are referring to. Give me a link to the rules or description of the one you are referring to, and maybe i can mod it for you.
WWII Version 4, is the same map as Version 2.
which one is the map for spring 1942?

in triplea
Spring 1942 is “World War II v4”
in case you are curious on the history of Spring 1942, it uses the exact same map as “Revised” does, but uses the rules from “AA50”
(there are a couple of changes, such as a UK bb that got turned into a cruiser, a couple destroyers that became cruisers, and slightly different borders in north america)
revised is ww2v2
aa50 is ww2v3
spring1942 is ww2v4
Umm….
Hate to say it,
But the maps, optically are significantly different, like if you look at them side by side.
Revised vs 1942.
Unless you mean to tell me, different look aside that, that the territories and sea zones all line up, and match in perfect accordance, for purposes of unit movement, even though they may be of a different draw?
If you dont agree, go look on IL’s tag and dload his maps. Or check out pics of the eastern front for example on www.boardgamegeek.com
Or am I missing something here?

while larry did change the shape of africa, etc, the look of africa does not change any actual territory connections, etc.
have a look at revised and 1942 side by side, you will see they are the exact same map with the only exceptions being iceland and formosa are added, slight change in connections in north america
I started a sourceforge project to host all the known maps.
And I made this kind of cool website for it,
check it out:

(my website making skills are limited, but i think it looks pretty badass!)
Any chance seeing AAG40 on TripleA? I would even pay money for that ;)

If you pay Comradekev (TripleA developer) he will probably do the necessary coding within 2-3 weeks.
Or you can try to get a cheaper coder in India to do the job :-)

I’m probably not going to pay as much as Comradekev expects, so I’ll let him do it for free, if he wants to that is ;)
Has anyone played the latest downloadable scenario about the Eastern Front? It’s where you play as Army Groups North/Centre/South, plus ALL the minor Axis powers versus the giant Russian bear. The Russians are played by a very competent AI which is beating me. Anybody have any tips on how to play this game correctly/what to buy/best strat that kind of thing?
Several Triple A questions:
Which version is Spring 1942? OP says WWIIv2 Revised = Spring 1942, somebody else says WWIIv4
Using WWIIv4, I can’t seem to use transports. When clicking inf/art/tanks it says “land units cannot both load and unload on the same turn” what gives?
I can’t figure out how to perform bombardments on ICs
Thanks guys! Trying to get up and running here on a Mac. Are there any other maps that host macs?
Several Triple A questions:
- Which version is Spring 1942? OP says WWIIv2 Revised = Spring 1942, somebody else says WWIIv4
Spring 42=v4
Revised=v2
Using WWIIv4, I can’t seem to use transports. When clicking inf/art/tanks it says “land units cannot both load and unload on the same turn” what gives?
You load and unload by right clicking the unit and loading it onto the transport. As far as not being able to load and unload, what you can do with the transports is limited by what’s allowed by the game rules. The game engine enforces the rules, so you can only perform moves that would be legal.
- I can’t figure out how to perform bombardments on ICs
Bombardments are for land units, not ICs, so nothing wrong with that.
Several Triple A questions:
- Which version is Spring 1942? OP says WWIIv2 Revised = Spring 1942, somebody else says WWIIv4
Spring 42=v4
Revised=v2
Revised will appear with the name of Revised when you are choosing the scenario on TripleA. The V2 designation only appears on the description of the game.
- I can’t figure out how to perform bombardments on ICs
If you mean strategic bombings just move the bomber to the territory where the IC is located. The game will then ask you if you want to attack or bomb the territory.
Ah! Much appreciated.
However, WWIIv4 - has several map differences from the 1942 map. Ie. Kenya as opposed to Rhodesia in Africa with different maps lines.
Anyway, thanks a lot.
and here are some pics:
most of these pictures have been reduced in size to be a quarter to a fifth of their original size.WW2v2 (spring 1942)
WW2v2 (revised)
Veqryn, you probably want to edit your second post so that the title for the first map reads WW2v4 (spring 1942) to avoid confusion, as can be seen from the couple questions confusing spring 42 with revised.
Well, I can’t seem to host a game. Before I am accused of not putting effort first. Yes, I did port Forwarding 3300 even 3300-3310. Ipconfig lets me know what the local IP of machine is. My external IP of the router is also known, matches the IP TripleA can’t connect to.
I tried a DMZ on my locale IP, with and without combinations of port forwarding. I have downloaded a few port scanners, not impressed with the results. Consulted my windows firewall, added port forwarding there. Short of bypassing my router physically I am open to suggestions. I guess a comp sci degree and 30 years of writing code isn’t much help here.
