Triple A is AWESOME

@Panther thank you

@Slip-Capone This is not likely to happen anytime soon. The game mechanics of 1914 are too different so the game engine would need a lot of new code. It is way more than simply adding a new map.

There has been a discussion on the old, deprecated developer forum:
http://tripleadev.1671093.n2.nabble.com/World-War-1-year-1914-td7583022.html
as well as on the new forum:
https://forums.triplea-game.org/topic/688/has-anyone-tried-to-make-world-war-i-larry-harris-game

So forums.triplea-game.org would be the place to add something to the discussion.

Its at the bottom of my 1st post in the house rules 1941 setup thread.

Online, you enter into a lobby where people host games. There you can join games to play… or watch if it has already started. These games are live.

Play By Email… well, of course you’ll need the emails of others. I think everyone has to register to the dice server, TripleA should tell how to do it. But you get spammed a lot from the results of the game. So I’d recommend using a new email just for this if you decide to play it by Email.
Games by Forum or Email aren’t live of course. You get the results uploaded and then when it’s your turn, when you’re done, you post/send your results. TripleA conveniently does most of the work itself for that, I think.

And if you got a buddy right by ya, you could just play a local game.

the AI is really just a novelty used for learning how to use the triplea controls and user interface, and for practicing a map for the first time ever

playing other people is what the game is about

i have no plans to do any work on the AI at all

Thanks :-D

In the /doc folder inside Triplea open the document Game Playing Guide .html 
Scroll down to section 2.4 Play By E-Mail Game (PBEM) ~ZP

I recently created new professional looking icons to replace the meadorker icon that comes with TripleA. Hopefully I can lobby the TripleA team to replace their current icon. I hope you all enjoy it.

Below is a link showing a preview of what the icon looks like

You can download the actual icon files in various sizes here

INSTRUCTIONS FOR REPLACING CURRENT TRIPLEA ICON:
    Download the ziped icon files. Copy the entire contents of the zipped folder into a new nonzipped folder that you will perminately save on your computer. (if you dont do this you wont be able to use the icons)
    If you have windows you can replace your current icon by right clicking on the triplea icon selecting “properties” under the “Shortcut” tab select “change Icon” then find the icon file you downloaded.   I would recomend selecting the 256x256 icon if you have vista. If you dont have vista you may need to select a smaller resolution.
