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

@kwaspek104 said in WWI 1914 - Is this game available on Triple A?:

Ah ok, that’s a shame. Thanks for the help!

I wish it was on here there also, I have played games across email once and it was hard work. Had the board set up on the pool table, would have to send images and territory stats. Was well worth it just took commitment.

@dawgoneit Every installation creates a TripleA shortcut on your desktop. Now those shortcuts look totally identically, so you need to figure out which shortcut is for which version.

So doubleclick on any shortcut and see which version starts. You determine the version on the top left of the starting screen:

Here you see it is Engine Version 2.1.20613.

Now load 2.1 savegames by klicking “Open Saved Games” and selecting the file.

In case you start the 1.9 engine load 1.9-savegames the identical way.

@Panther Thanks - now I need to get my son to update his account on A&A. He hasn’t been on the site for several years being in college now and his email isn’t working. We can fix that one though.

As long as we’re talking battle calc, how about allowing the user to specify OOL?  Sometimes you want that bomber on defense to be taken last and see how much that changes your chances….

Or to hold subs back and not lose them first.  Can be very significant when you have super subs, like I often do.  :-)

Meanwhile, I will continue to rely on my more detailed and versatile calculator, even though it’s designed for AA50.  It still works better for Global than the TripleA calc, even though it does carriers different and doesn’t have tacs

Manchuria is Chinese, so it doesn’t count for the bonus.

On 41 NOs, this thread is a good one to bookmark.

Just to sum up what happened at the end of this thread:

TripleA is very much alive. It got purged of any name references to the boardgame, but the maps resembling the official boardgame in setup support the complete rulesets of all the versions out there.
More important, in my eyes, it features some user made maps with different themes. Some of them are aimed at the advanced player (like New World Order - NWO1.7EB, for example), with the positive side-effect of having a mannered and above-average skilled community around them. The large maps tend to value strategic thinking above tactical assessment.
