First Encounter with TripleA, a noob's first games.

@fmerwinrommel

It looks like the fix discussed in

https://www.axisandallies.org/forums/topic/37967/triplea-posting-to-forum-currently-does-not-work

will resolve your issue, too.

@barnee Thanks. Turns out one team player was using an ancient version of Triplea engine. We’ll just have to manually adjust for the few land battles that use gas. Most players will build DD’s making first strike less relevant.

I think the AI works best on smaller maps. They make their moves much faster as there are fewer numbers for the AI to crunch at purchase or on movement.

Perhaps making a dual challenge would be fun. First Allies then Axis. With some goals set up.

I think 1942.2 (world war II v5) is a solid map for a challenge. There is a 1942.2. Tournament going on right now, so that may help to garner some interest.

If you want another “blast from the past” might try AA50. ;)

@Subotai:

Not NASA, not NSA, not Google or Apple or anyone, can make an AI that is close to being as good as decent human players, not even with computers that costs billions of dollars.

Would you care to stake $10,000 US on that?

AND YOUR SOUL?

I’m far from being a “rich man” even if I live in one of the richest countries in the world, so I can only afford $1000 (atm), but I’m willing to bet that amount, yes. If I had more money I would be willing to bet all of what I actually have.

One of the participants on the numerous AI threads on the TripleA developers page said that the A&A maps is even more (mathematically) complex than the game GO. So I would take my chance on at least $1000, or the maximum of what I could afford.
The premise is a fair bid, as regarded by humans, and the A&A maps Classic, AA42, AA50, Revised, or G40 when its rules are coded for Triplea.

About my SOUL, I’m an agnostic, so why should I not bet my soul??  :-D :-P

Free software , free server for battle via internet, fast thinking playable AI, and non-stop development by software team,  all of these let me say Triple A is the best AA relative software I seen

although someone said the AI of TripleA is not very well at all (at least the AI  is much better than that of other AA sorftware, eg. Hasbro Axis and Allies), it save lots of time when you are playing with humans, and the mistake made by AI partners make the game much challenging when playing solo …
