@martin In addition to playing in the League, which is the “Play by Forum” option in Triple which takes days/weeks to play a game, you can choose “Play Online” which are live games. You can get a lot of games in and see lots of strategies. Before long you will kick your local gaming groups butts!

@bretters those germans…

@bretters lol

@bretters no scramble

@bretters GG. Sure I’ll play a rematch. Since you lost, I’ll let you choose the sides with same bid.

@hypoaf interesting German naval moves.

@bretters Sorry, got busy. Pilots to your planes. Scramble all forces! We will defend this island by air!!

@bretters even though it didn’t work due to bad rolls, when playing Japan, be careful when placing units if US has a CV(s) on west coast with airplanes in Hawaii. I love knocking out transports with that :)

@bretters don’t forget about my bad luck on planes in middle east!

@bretters French are always proud of what they do no matter how insignificant!

@bretters Congratulations! Don’t worry about our game.

@trulpen Sounds good. Have a good time.
