@CaptainNapalm Its only done at the individual turn level right now. But we are adding some new features in the next release of TripleA to have some game graphs/stats so this is something that could be added in the near future.

From the bottom of our Yanky hearts, happy 4th of July, English gents!

@Private-Panic You’re up. Enjoy one of your few turns as the poor frogs before they are crushed beneath German steel!

TripleA PR to update the order for revised rules to Attacker Submerge, Attacker Withdraw, Defender Submerge: https://github.com/triplea-game/triplea/pull/4820

This can be tested in the latest pre-release here: https://github.com/triplea-game/triplea/releases

@Private-Panic I think you underestimate the sheer determination and power of the Communists! Soon Russia will be ruled by the collective state rather than your brutal Monarchs!

Just saw it. I really enjoyed it. It most reminded me of Dunkirk if you’ve seen that. Had some dialog but very much about trying to recreate the experience of a pair of soldiers.

@Wittmann Well if you would have just left the poor Serbians alone in Belgrade then I wouldn’t have been forced to march into the Dardanelles!

@Wittmann Should I start building trenches in Paris now? :)

Ok. We can take a break for a bit. Seems that @Wittmann scares all his teammates away!

@colt45554 France is practicing how to retreat already!

@witt @aequitas-et-veritas Happy birthday fellas!

@elrood I have in the past said that player skill is far more impactful than which side you have. That was following a game where you, redrum and witt took on entek, dawg, a et v and myself - if i remember the players correctly. We never had a chance but played it through to allow you guys to enjoy your victory. But I made this point at the end of the game in the hope that players would spread themselves around to even up the sides. I do hope that is what is happening.

Makes sense. so you like to have a gentlemens agreement of sorts?

Indeed. I mostly try to pick the opposite team as PP and Witt as I just enjoy watching them lose ;)

Happy holidays all!

@Charles-Fontaine Impressive. That is an awesome board. Most of what you have here could be created as a digital game using TripleA. Also in case you are interested there are some TripleA WWII maps that rival yours including Total World War which you might be interested in checking out: https://forums.triplea-game.org/topic/1181/total-world-war-december-1941-3-0-0-4

Cool unit set. For those that enjoy more varied unit sets with higher dice sides, TripleA has a number of maps that use 10 and 12 sided dice like Total World War and Iron War.

@DoManMacgee I’m not sure what the source code for the calculator is maybe @djensen knows?

TripleA’s battle calc is pretty comprehensive and covers all A&A versions and more. Since it works by simulating battles as long as the simulation runs number is fairly high then you’ll be very good approximations.

@charles-de-gaulle Yeah, I think you’ve been manually doing it which for small problem sets like 3-4 players which is probably not too difficult. Once you get to 5+, its very difficult and time consuming to do manually and you may need a programmatic approach.

You can try to do it manually but it may get to the point where you end up having to try to swap around a bunch of game assignments to avoid breaking your conditions which is where a human starts to struggle but where computers and optimization algorithms shine.

Hey fellas. If you need a sub or start up another game and need another player I’d be glad to join.

@spitfire There is a custom TripleA Napoleonic Empires map: https://triplea-game.org/map/napoleonic-empires/
