XDAP-01 Creature Commandos (Axis) vs. Team BoldDutch (Allies)

[dutchmand]

Bold’s is: kirkwag@hotmail.com. mine is legalstore@hotmail.com, for gaming anyway…

[dutchmand]

When u go to post a turn, u enter in everyones email. Then when u save the file before u post it will automatically save everyone’s email as part of the file. So there should be only the need to enter it once by the German player. If you have any issues I can start the map, post it and then you can save it and “load saved game”.

[ghr2]

Does it have to be e-mail?  cant you just upload the saved file to the forums and we download it?

[Make_It_Round]

Thanks Dutch.

Just waiting for ghr2’s email addy, and then we’ll be ready to go (assuming that everyone’s registered with the dice server).

I’ll try to launch the game myself (need the experience, frankly), but if there’s any problem I’ll ask you for your help straight off.

By the way, have you two chosen which Allied powers you’ll each be controlling yet? Please let us know, if so.

Best regards,

MIR

Tested dice server, getting the following error message:

“Error: email  has wrong format”

Nothing seems to be wrong with your email addresses, and I’ve already tested this successfully with Gazza & my emails.

I am separating each address with one space, as instructed by the program.

Maybe the problem stems from trying to send to multiple recipients?

Please advise,

MIR

[Make_It_Round]

Each of your emails work separately… Must be the a problem with multiple recipients.

[Make_It_Round]

Whatever, I’m just going to get started. Dutch, you’re going to receive the dice results for your team. Cool?

G1
SZ 111:

Germans: 1 tac, 1 fig, 1 bom, 2 subs

SZ 110:

Germans: 3 tacs, 3 figs, 1 bom, 1 sub

UK player: Scramble? OOL?

OOL for Battle of France (multinational defense)?

[boldfresh]

dutch, i’ll defer to you on these decisions…  :wink:

[dutchmand]

I’ll try to fix it when i get the map.

I can post from my razr, but i can’t see the map. Will post in a couple hours when i get to my laptop.

[dutchmand]

MIR,

Post the map so I can see all the battle moves.  Like Garg said, you can save Triple A at any point, so if you stop to ask OOL or scramble, post the map with it so we can see what’s going on to make the decision.

[Make_It_Round]

Unfortunately I pressed ‘end combat move’ and now there’s a dialogue box open asking for scramble answers.

I can’t save while that dialogue box is open, I’ve tried. In the future I’ll be sure to save before ending my combat move.

For the moment, however, if you want the file it seems like the only thing I can do is to restart the game and then save it for you.

We can surely do that, it’s up to you. But I’ve given you the numbers of attackers I’m sending, and your defenders are as per set-up. So you might be able to figure out your likely response from past games.

P.S.: Still having trouble sending dice results to multiple parties, so I’ve assigned Dutch & I as team recipients of dice rolls from server.

[dutchmand]

Well, it matters in decision making like this to see what you purchased and where all the other aircraft are going.  For example, I may be more or less likely to throw Allied aircraft away if the Germans purchased naval vessels, or if an AC was built to catch certain aircraft sortied in combat.  Even if I was inclined to scramble, seeing a weak zone 112 following the German turn mught cause me to keep the ftrs grounded.

Essentially the same thing for OOL in Paris.  If you have 98% chance of taking it with what you brought, then it will be simply cheapest unit dies first.  If it is more like a 60% - 70%, then, then which nationality survives if the dice go the French’s way might actually matter.  So, seeing what load you are bringing is important.

I know it’s a pain in the arse, but I really do need to see what is going on to execute the decisions. So, you can either type up the purchases and combat moves here and I’ll recreate them on my own Triple A board, or you can start the German turn from scratch with a new board and save before you click “done” on the combat moves and just post the file here.

[Make_It_Round]

Okay Dutch, no problem.

I’ve tried to recreate my G1 as closely as I can recall.

Please let me know if you have any trouble opening the attached file.

Awaiting your scramble / OOLs.

XDAP-01CreatureCommandosvsBoldDutch.tsvg

[dutchmand]

Thank you kind sir.

Scramble 1 ftr z111
Scramble 3 ftrs z110, U-boat can only hit the naval vessels, first hit from him goes to the BB of course.  My aircraft can only hit the German aircraft.

Paris: cheapest unit first, preference for British if identical units.

[boldfresh]

when i tried to open the map i got an error - what do i need to do?

the error said "could not find file folder or zip for map:  World War II Global.  Please DOWNLOAD THIS MAP if you do not have it.  If you are making a map or mod, make sure the mapName property within the xml game file exactly matches the map zip or folder name.

i think Verqyn told me how to fix this but i cant remember where it’s at.

anyone seen this one?

Garg explains how to download version 2.8 on page 1 of this thread.

I did it myself, works fine now…
