GARGANTUA's K.I.S.S. TripleA Instructions

@mrcunego
Uhh…I’m afraid you will need admin right in order to install. Are you successful installing other programs?

Thanks guys. Was hoping I had missed the option. Just means I need to start playing real people now that I understand the software better and am comfortable with it.

I like the 20 Soviet Battleship idea, but I can just picture the AI suddenly either avoiding the Med like a plague or doing a massive build up to take it on.

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.

This is my favorite version of AA50 for tripleA!

It reminds me of those old stanley turner WW2 maps I enjoy or like Time Life from way back in the day, but with some topographical flare to it that I particularly dig. It’s like a classic callback to Iron Blitz, but subtle. I love it! Can’t believe it took me like 5 years to chance on this post hehe.

This Custom Mod should just be the default AA50 version in the tripleA repository as far as I’m concerned. It looks glorious! Love the unit detailing.

Also I was trying it out just now with some of the Iron War units that Frostion made shown below, which were among my favs for WW2 tripleA, and it looked killer that way too! I re-labelled and ported them earlier tonight to have something I could use for G40 units as well and the files totally worked for AA50 despite having like way more tanks than the game could ever use lol. When I found this map and was like oh damn, when did this one come along? 2017 I guess, well I still think it’s rad!!! Super clean map all around.

It would be awesome to see something like this for G40 at some juncture. When I pull up the vanilla AA50 or G40, just doesn’t look nearly as awesome as this Custom Mod map. Style points especially for the little designs in the reliefs. This Custom Mod AA50 is what I really wished the AA50 map might look like back when I initially put the rough baseline together. Lots of nice touches here, it’s got the charm for sure. Well done dude!
Truly, all the best

That’s fine. Thanks for the update.

It’s been some time since this question has been asked, but I just want to mention another workaround for people interested in this topic.

With “Chrome Remote Desktop” users can remotly access another computer through a Chromebook.

So if you keep for example a Windows computer with Java and TripleA running at home
you will be able to access it and play TripleA using your Chromebook when travelling.

Unstickied for now, as content and links are outdated.
A possible update is pending.

We also have this article covering almost the same content:

Changes from 1.2.5.5 to 1.3.2.2

All known bugs in 1.2.5.5 are fixed. Major improvements to the AIs, especially to Moore AI. A new AI added, Dynamix, which is land only for now, but still being worked on. 4 new maps added, now TripleA comes with 11 games. More help for new users, including tool tips for unit stats and abilities. Massive expansion in the options and customizing of games. Many new options which allow modders to make their own board games, and their own rules and gameplay. Partial support for Axis and Allies 1940 games. Pacific 1940 is 80% done, while Global is 40% done.  This is still being worked on of course.

I should mention that Revised, Spring 1942, and the 50th Anniversary Edition look beautiful on this release!  Come give TripleA a try….

For those of you who do not know, TripleA is a game engine for playing A&A and similar games online, both for Live games and PBEM.  It also has single player against 3 different AIs, and Hotseat mode.  There are regularly 20-60 people in the online lobby, and lots more people play custom games and really big maps by PBEM.
