Okay thanks, Veqryn. Will look out for a Submarine ‘torpedo strike’ sound. I noticed on TripleA the we still get the ‘large naval engagement’ sound when it’s only Subs fighting…

Yes, I’ve noticed this too. You can only add Infantry or Artillery to China in Edit mode.

Me personally, I think I’ll wait. Ain’t payin’ £75!!  :-P

Thank you Veqryn, for listening.  :-) Will this feature come out on a future release of TripleA?

I wish Subs could still pass through the Denmark Straits too. If you’re gonna have a rule for one, have it for the other.

Hey Djensen, can you post a pic of the Rulebook please?  :-)

Nice list, Flashman. Some good points there.

I was going to ask, is this feature going to be made available soon?

Veqryn - you’re a genius mate, and the work you put into this is VERY much appreciated!  :-)

Nice one, cheers for that, Panther.

Brilliant, thanks again. I will try this all out when I get home tonight.  :-)

Ah, that’s really helpful, Panther, thank you again. Normally, when I’m playing alone against the AI I just click save at the beginning of my turn, but I’ve never seen it come up with an option to ‘send the turn/new savegame’. Does this only appear if I’m playing a PBEM game then?

With regards to the dice situation, I understand what you mean now about using the dice servers. However, I think what I would like to do (ideally) is to continue our game in a live sitting; so not necessarily playing turns by email. Therefore we would just bee using the built-in dice, as if we were playing it ‘hotseat’ style on one computer. Is it possible to do this? I expect I would have to click on a play different option - I will explore further…

Thanks again for your help.

Hi guys, I don’t know if this is the right place to post this question so apologies if I’ve got that wrong. Also, I have searched the Software/TripleA sections and can’t find an answer to this. Anyway, I expect this is quite an easy question, but here goes:

I want to continue a game of Global 1940 that I’ve been playing face to face with my friend. The game is currently in its 5th turn or so, and I have used the editor in TripleA to recreate the exact set up as it is now. We are both using the most recent version of TripleA.

I select ‘load saved’ game, I load up the appropriate game file, and then click PBEM. I am using Hotmail and therefore input my own Hotmail username and password. I input my both our Hotmail email addresses in the ‘to’ line. Then I click the ‘test email’ button. This successfully sends me an email with an attachment. When I open the attachment, it says “this was a test, it would normally be a real game save file” or something like that.

What am I doing wrong? I don’t want to play by forum, and I don’t understand what the deal is regarding registering with a dice server. Can’t I just use the dice generators in TripleA? Any help would be really appreciated. My friend and I are ready to go but I can’t seem to get the current save game file across to him…

Thank you very much.

Yes? No? Maybe?

It’s just that the black number digit sometimes gets lost in the black smoke rising out of the facility and I think it should be clearer. An easy fix, surely…

Yep, I think you’re right.

A small suggestion, if I may… would it be possible to amend the colour of the number displayed above a damaged facility to be brighter/more eye-catching? Maybe yellow, red or orange? As it is at the moment, the number displayed is just black and I think it needs to stand out more. What do you think?

Thank you very much.

I think wiping out Infantry divisions with poison gas might be just a little too strong? How about a successful gas attack renders an enemy Infantry unit(s) unable to move, attack or defend for a turn? (although they could still take hits in combat). That way, it’d be more like a temporary disrupt or something…

I’m loving everything I’m hearing about this 1914 game and can’t wait to buy it. Got a feeling it will quickly climb to the top of my board gaming pile (well, maybe just underneath Global 1940…)

I thought Tac Bombers could intercept too… must re-reead the rulebook.

Thanks allweneedislove, but I’m at work right now and my servers don’t allow me to download or open documents off the net.  :-(

Hey wittmann, the reviews won’t be ready for a few days yet (there is much writing to do) but it’s for a site called Boardgaming.com. I have reviewed many other A&A titles on there - if anyone fancies a read, by all means PM your emails and I’ll invite you to join. Thank you  :-)
