Hi Alex
You have 3 Marines attacking and only 2 Artillery to support them. So one of the Marines needs to be a “MarineA1” or he will attack at 2 instead of 1.

Easiest way to do it, is to undo all the dudes that landed in Carolines, then add the MarineA1, then land the rest of the guys except one Marine. You can remove him after battle.
It’s a little involved removing dudes on Transports because you gotta remove the dude and the Transport and if there’s more than one Trrnsprt you usually have to remove them all and then edit them back in.
It would have been easier if the Marines just attacked at 2 by themselves and boost to 3 with the Arty, but that’s not how the Captain rolls :)
They are limited in number so can’t be endlessly spammed and the Arty by itself is still a superior buy as well as Armored Inf but thems the rules :)

2 - Is therre a good way/tricks to move them from the west coast to the mid /west pacific besides a road/trail of carriers?
Not that I know of. CVs can move just as far with a Harbor.
No you can only have 8 total of the N Ftrs. And your 2 free count towards the total, so if you already have 8 when the free ones deploy, you don’t get them.
Should name some Junior High Schools after those PHI AA Gunners :)

Hi Alex
No you can only place Mines in Moscow. Same with all the special units. Commisar, Grd Inf etc … Can only place regular dudes Tanks, Inf, Arty … in unattacked TTys.
Same that you can place in any Fctry

Right arm
I will go ahead and add them with the above parameters. The number and date of entry are easily changed.
I will wait for the final test results before putting them in the update.

Hi Captain
Have you decided on the number per Player ? or what are you testing at ?
Also, what year do they enter the war ?
I would like to go ahead and start working on these for the next triplea update.
So far, only one game with the SPA’s. The Soviets and yanks have both bought them but the reich surprisingly very few.
They pair well with Grd Inf, although Total Tank buys are still superior. I like them.
My game with Trout is coming to a close but I have a backlog of reports to do, so it’ll be a bit before it’s up.
Merry Christmas
:)

Hi Panzer
My understanding is you get 3 PGs plus the SS PG. It’s not 100% clear though.

I usually have trouble getting more than 3 on the board, so I don’t think it’s come up before :)

This has been a fun game to follow. Impressed with how well you have adapted to triplea’s limitations in implementing this mod.

Large Naval Forces in both Theatres. Game far from decided.
I hope you are enjoying it :)

Hi Panzer
I believe Alex is the yanks ? So he’s attacking the Kriegsmarine and doesn’t have a Escort.

One question on that, doesn’t Italy have to have no troops in Africa before this can happen?
Hi Alex
You are correct but the reich may not have a presence either.

Platinum ?
Element 115 ?
Valor and Distinguished both good. I know there’s people who are able and desire to donate more.

The Self Propelled Artillery should be interesting. I have always thought it was a needed unit.
I came up with one for G 40 House rules but that was with Tanks costing 6 bucks.
At any rate, I’m thinking the Reich should benefit the most on the E Front. If the Yanks can get into SFE with Armored Inf, they could as well.
Will be a fun unit to try out :)
I just finished it for the next triplea update. Still have some other stuff to do but these are the images I used from Joe Pants and Veqryn.
I colorized, so if anyone wants to improve them please do :)

Thanks for the new Unit :)
Edit
Should promote some more Mech Inf buys. Soviets still probably go Mass Tanks as they usually don’t have enough dough to much more than that.Maybe get one Total Mech buy in. Total Tanks still a better deal than the SPAs.
Anyway, they’re limited, so can’t be spammed. Really looking forward to trying them out :)

The D4 a good upgrade. Can use for Amphib on Caucasus or Norway counterattack if needed. Even Middle East.
Also join a Oberst for a Army, although I never have. There are a lot of German units to get seduced by, so I usually or well never have, don’t upgrade, because you still need bullet stoppers imo and I can never seem to have enough :)

Guten Abend Herr Panzer
I noticed you accidentally took over Iraq with Italia. You did switch NW Persia back correctly though. :)
So a minus 4 PU correction is needed and TTy change.
