Practice tripleA jim vs Axisplaya

[jim010]

In this game, you took France with so few losses, that’s insane. Also, sz110 has been EXTREMELY good for you. So you have a game as good as it can be. Your “bad luck” in London is actually not THAT bad when we consider that you didn’t send any plane there, and it definately doesn’t make up for previous luck (IMO at least).

Well, London probably balances out Paris, then, I’d say.

My real problem is that I set Italy up for something else, and then left them to hang when I changed my mind.

I have never won as Axis when Italy was weak.

[Gargantua]

I have never won as Axis when Italy was weak.

Yep…

[jim010]

I want to move a loaded TT to sz42.

Is there a reason that I am not seeing as to why TripleA is not letting me?

[jim010]

Also, in sz54, I can’t tell what is ANZAC and what is US.

Is there some why of adjusting the colours?

[jim010]

I’ll have to get you to edit for me.  It won’t let me delete 1 inf, 1 art and 1 TT from Kwa and sz36.

[jim010]

Sumatra went well for you.  I’ll miss those bmbs.

[Axisplaya]

When it doesn’t allow you to move 3 spaces while you should be able, do that : move it 2 spaces, then one more.

tr from sz36 to Cel, then move it from sz44 to sz42

sz54, only 1 CA is Anzac’s

a BB is Indian

Rest is US

[jim010]

Gave me some error when I finished Japan.

The map is here, but 1 inf, and 1 art in Kwa have to be removed.

1 TT from sz36 has to be removed as well.  It would not let me remove them in Edit Mode even.

Sorry, but this program is frustrating me.

@jim010:

Well, here it is.

I prefer Battlemap.

And with Battlemap, I can move units around to see what the game could like like in future turns.  Helps me plan.

Maybe you figured it out already (didn’t get far in your thread), but selecting the terr instead of the units brings up all the units in a list and you can select all or some of them for movement instead of one by one. You can also continue clicking units individually before clicking the destination and they’ll stack up, so you could easily pick an inf, art, and fighter to make an attack. Oh and if you want to cheat ahead, sometimes I’ll change it to internal dice server and make some moves without posting just to get a better feel for what’s coming. Alternately, there’s the edit function, but it’s more cumbersome then on battlemap.

Do i just remove them or do they have to be also added somewhere ?

I like to do this too, but as it rolls whacky, I can’t get a realistic sense of what I would be facing some turns down the road.

No kidding.

Sometimes it won’t let you do so if you moved them. Just wait until your done with your movement phases and you should be able to edit them at that point.

[jim010]

I tried.  Wouldn’t let then, either.

hmm, were you in your place units or end turn phase?

I’m going to surrender.  Losing the 12 TTs is huge beyond words.  Good placement of the Americans.  I obviously missed that those planes could hit.  And I was thinking I was safe when I took Ireland.

Nice play.

Cheers
