Quick rule clarification please.

While it would be absolutely good to have such a feature, we’re past the stage when the game can get substantial code changes. AAO stayed in Early Access between July 2019 and November 2021, and the also kept getting updates until July 2022. There was always a different feature or issue we worked on.

Hey, I don’t see a username silkyselfie, but please send me an email you use for the game (in a DM).

@djensen I’m only on round 2 so it is hard to say if they are good or not, but so far every play from them seems fine. Yes I am aware that developing an AI capable of playing a complex game like A&A is rather difficult.

I have watched very advanced players on YouTube, so I am aware they can play really fast, especially the first turn. However, this is something else. In a matter of seconds, all purchases, combat moves, combats and non-combat moves are resolved, like max 15 seconds.

If it is not an AI playing, my second guess is that I am not able to watch them play live and what I see is a short playback of everything they made during the turn. I don’t know why that would happen though. I was still connected to the game because the other player was online, so I wanted to play live.

@JuliusBorisovBeamdog Understood, thank you for looking!

@PGsquig I don’t recall exactly why, but I found a reason to actually do it on purpose. The land wasn’t safe and I needed the air power to project east.

@DoManMacgee said in Rules clarification for rolling separately:

I thought Column Rolling literally only existed in Classic 2nd Edition (maybe 3rd too, I don’t remember completely).

It has been clarified progressive “column” rolling was the process for Classic 1st and 2nd editions, but not for Classic 3rd edition, and for no Axis & Allies games thereafter.

Agreed, @djensen , it looks like the decision for what they call “asynchronous play” dominates the development of the software, causing some “side effects”.
