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

The Players:

Make_It_Round = Germany

ghr2 = Japan

gazza = Italy

Still debating the finer points of our grand strategy… but I feel we’re close to consensus.

Also, this is my first time to kick off a TripleA game; do I need all of your email addresses to give to the dice server?

Any helpful tips for setting up which could speed things along would be appreciated.

Cheers,

MIR

Tested dice server. Success!

Now who should I be cc-ing the results to on the other team?

Also: where is the 5-digit topic ID located, so I can throw a test post down on this forum?

Finally, remember Garg… He who LOLZ last LOLZ hardest!

Test summary from TripleA 13:53:25

Thanks Dutch.

So, basically I’ll be opening a version of the game that reads WW2: Global 40 Alpha 3, correct?

I’m still trying to find version 2.8 of that… working with 2.6 at the moment, even though I just downloaded the freshest version of TripleA. Any advice?

But we will be playing by Alpha 3.9 rules, as I understand it…

Is there anywhere where the differences between the 3.0 & 3.9 rulesets are clearly laid out?

Last question of this post: Do you guys want to play with tech?

that the person doing their turn must keep Triple A open while they are awaiting the response of an opponent, i.e. OOL (defending bombers, ACs, subs, etc.), or scrambling.  So, depending on how you ususally operate your computer, this could cause a logistical problem.  You start the turn, if you get to a point where you nned to ask a question of the opponent, just minimize the Triple A application, post a question on the board, and hopefully a response will be quick, then the player continues witht he Triple A application.

You can actually SAVE a tripleA game anytime, at any point, even mid battle.  Then just upload the file here like you would a regular battlemap game.

Go here, I think it’s the 3rd post down or so…

Also, TECH isn’t all working yet, so the tech currently available on TripleA is the tech from AA50,  and doesn’t work the best for global. :P  I would aviod it until this is updated.

Thanks Garg.

I’ve got my TripleA Global 40 version updated to 2.8 now.

Ready to roll out my G1, as soon as I get everyone’s email addresses…

BTW: Do I mail out the results to everyone, or just the player whose pieces I’m attacking?

Looking forward to getting started,

MIR

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

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

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

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)?

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

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.
