The Good Captain vs. Mr. Wool

@AcesWild5049 Interested to see this South African IC in action :)

The Gargantua instructions are exactly what I needed. I’m going to take some time for both studying my Japan turn and making sure I properly post. I should have it back in your direction by this evening (I’m also on PDT). Thanks for all the help!

Thanks for your patience. I’m still failing to post at the end of my turn. The error message says “user ericwool@gmail.com doesn’t exist.” I’m registered on the dice server, but there’s somewhere else I need to be registered. I don’t see a general registration for Triple A. Any idea what I’m missing?

@ericwool Your email-address is not your forum login. Please take a look here:

So you need to enter your forum user name (ericwool) and your forum password into the “Play By Forum” section in order to be able to post to the forum.

Good luck :slightly_smiling_face:

@Panther Thanks so much - I really appreciate the help!

@AcesWild5049 OK, I’m going to play the turn through again with the same actions. I’m assuming that will be easier to edit than a blank slate. The combat results were a bombing raid on India will a roll of 1 and the taking of China will Japan losing 1 infantry.

OK, to set things to my original turn you’ll need to remove 1 inf from China and add 4 IPCs to UK. I’ll be happy to do my share of the editing in the near future, but I think I’ll depend on you for that stuff until I’ve successfully completed a couple of turns!
