How to play triplea over the internet

@CrazyIvan Also for playing online you might want to check out our TripleA forum, especially the stickies there: https://www.axisandallies.org/forums/category/28/triplea-support

Intriguing. I didn’t realize someone had gotten as far as making at least a functional map and XML that could be played using a decent amount of edits. There is always a chance that TripleA would support 1914 but it would require a developer to make a number of engine enhancements to support the many ‘interesting’ rules that added.

FYI these are the vicotry conditions coded for Revised:

    <property name="Projection of Power" value="true" editable="true"><boolean></boolean></property>     <property name="Honorable Surrender" value="false" editable="true"><boolean></boolean></property>     <property name="Total Victory" value="false" editable="true"><boolean></boolean></property>

And for LHTR:

    <property name="Projection of Power" value="false" editable="true"><boolean></boolean></property>     <property name="Honorable Surrender" value="true" editable="true"><boolean></boolean></property>     <property name="Total Victory" value="false" editable="true"><boolean></boolean></property>

You can set Projection of Power, Honorable Surrender or Total Victory in the game options.

You can modify the values only by editing the respective game.xml.

Yes, I was online last night and watched a game round or two of a couple global 40 games. Just to get a sneak peek of what strategies are being used. I will see if I can find someone to set up a play by forum game against. Looking forward to a game against different opponents other then my couple friends who play. More importantly, and I might get blown out of the water, but I’d like to play against some skilled opponents. Just to see where I stand.

Thanks again for your help. The videos were especially helpful

Sounds like you aren’t putting in the correct password for your A&A forums account.

If it’s working right, then you should be able to click “test post” prior to your turn and a test post will come up in the appropriate forum thread.

Doublecheck that you have play-by-forum turned on, that you have the right password and account name, and that you have the correct game id in the pbf section.

Subs rolling separately is a minor issue in low luck games.  If you have 1 ss 1 dd 2 bb against a fleet with a dd–the total punch is 12, but it’s quite possible to only get 1 hit.  It would be an improvement if subs are lumped in with the gross total in that scenario (eg only if the enemy has a dd that negates the surprise shot).

@oly:

If they came up with a Global 1940 for the computer my wife would probably end up divorcing me or destroying the computer

Lol mine too

Thank you!
