The Chinese are more difficult to beat than I expected.

sorry, I somehow oversaw that.

Hi Mike,

ready for the next round. I’m all yours😉

that’s fine👍

@LionelR
Hi I’m not sure if this is important for you for sending me the next file.

I had to reinstall 2.7 because of a bug in the ‘easy AI’ having been repared.

my version now is 2.7+15116

@mike64
that’s fine, thanks

You’re correct it’s quite a challenge. But it’s the only way to learn the game, I guess.

I’m not sure if I’ll have more time today (19.30hrs over here)

Until one week ago I had no idea wat TripleA was and had only played the 1984 boardgame version.

With ‘objectives’ added to it, the learning curve keeps becoming still more steep.

I hope you don’t mind having to play against a beginner like me. Do feel free to tell me.

In the meantime here’s my next move.

A few questions:

1. I saw that the Chinese met some national objective and got ext PU’s. What was the objective?
2. Battle in sea zone 96: why do the Italians receive a first strike? …shouldn’t the presence of the British destroyer nullify that?
3. In that same battle: why can the subs fire a second time in the same round, as they already had a first strike?

@mike64
yep. it’s the japanese that are indeed on!

@mike64
??

@mike64
great take just waiting. take your time!;)

@mike64
it now works perfectly, only one question. I first played axis and now I’m invited to play for the Russians.

do you want us to start anew and me playing for the allies. Is that what you want me to do?

clicking on prerelease brings me to the page in annex

clicking on the title gives me the 2nd page:

I cannot find any dowload button on these pages.

Btw, I’m also on Mac computer

@mike64
when trying to open the file, I got a message inviting me to re-install TripleA as there was a newer version. After reinstallation the problem wasn’t solved. Do you have any idea what’s going on?

Hi Mike,
 
You are correct I’m also one of those with longer life experience, I’m 67. Great to meet someone with that same background. I’m very glad you are taking it upon you to get me started.

I’m from Belgium, so our time difference is 9 hours. That’s why your message and mails were not yet answered (it was night over here).

I’ve played quite a few games on the original boardgame 1984 and was glad to very recently discover the forum and TripleA. In the mean time I played a solo WW2 revised and won against the AI at level ‘easy’. I also played an online game with someone and lost. It was a bit of a challenge it as I had to get used to the new map and the new units, while learning to work with the lobby and the interface of WW2 Revised in TripleA. But I think I’m doing fine.

I only started playing a solo game of global 2 days ago. This is a huge difference with the 1984 boardgame version.

I made my first move
I first got a big surprise by the ‘scramble’ ability by the British, but escaped without too much damage.

I presume the file I sent you is correct.

so what should I do now?
