Global 1940 and 1943 Expansion for use with TripleA

thanks guys

@panther OK, thanks.

@aequitas:

I am ok with it and don’t see way it should be removed.

The problem will be that if your computer crashes while the box is being displayed, you won’t get the autosave if it’s the last thing done after displaying the end turn panel.

But it seems there is a strong view to maintain the status quo and no concern about that potential problem. Has no effect on me given that I turn it off so there’s no reason to change that aspect.

v3 is AA50
v4 is Spring 42
v5 is 42 sec Edition
v6 is the 1941 starter board

Have fun dude

I have Pacific 1940 2nd ed. game that I bought in May '13 or thereabouts. Convoy rules are on pp. 22-23. They read like the Europe/L.Harris rules that Gargantua has cited: units roll dice, 2 for a/c and subs, and 1 for others. Rolls of “3” or less are tallied, etc. Exactly like my Europe '40 2nd ed. rulebook in game I purchased the same day.

The Pac. '40 2nd ed. rulebook in A&A.org / Resources section is like the one that came with my game.

I did look at Avalon Hill site for Pac. '40 2nd ed. rulebook and it reads the way that Gargantua is citing for Pacific rules, units do an amount of convoy ipc damage without rolling dice. Looked again at cover of that book, however, and it does not indicate “2nd Edition”. Seems like a bad link at AH site. Rulebook link on Pacific '40 2nd ed. page opens 1st ed. book?

Also confirmed that my Pacific rulebook on pg. 10 says that China is not subject to convoy disruption, as P@nther previously noted.

Wow. I cant believe somebody would be called a noob.

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.

thanks,

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.
