    • RE: Reverse Canopener???

      I can only guess that the reverse can opener means that US can clear SZ´s which can then be reinforced with british sea units because no european axis have their turn between them.
      The most common use of that tactics as far as I know is the liberation of Denmark by US followed by a british surprise attack on Berlin.

    • RE: Oztea's 1941 Global Setup

      Hello gents,

      me and a good friend of mine were playing the lovely oztea41 version and had
      a blast so far.
      No I feel like I am screwed as the japanese player. I see no chance to find a safe place for
      my fleet and invasion looks like it is inevitable.
      So far I have played prettty conservative with the Japanese player but still see no chance against the combined
      fleet and airforce of the allies in the pacific theatre.
      Any idea what I made wrong here?
      Also any idea were to find good position for the Japanese fleet?

      Cheers and have a nice weekend fellow generals.2020-11-24-Japan R7.tsvg

    • RE: Couple dumb questions

      @hbg-gw-enthusiast Yes your online really is a tutorial for me. I am currently at Round 5 of your game and I keep watching it :-)
      Of course you are right about the G2 attack on France. The solo game I am doing is more of a rule learning game to me with no real strategic value so far. Reason being is that I am waiting for couple more parts from HBG to
      finally have all units available.

      @barnee YGmod.tsvg
      I have changed the ANZAC nation. Only thing I could not change was the order of play.

    • RE: Bismarck or Taranto?

      for the given szenario I would also prefer to send the fighters to Taranto, simply because the damage in the long run is much bigger if you destroy the italien navy rather then the Bismarck.

    • RE: Oztea's 1939 Global Setup

      Have been playing the 39 setup for a while now on TripleA but I would love to see the map printed out same size as global 40. Is there a map file out there for oztea´s 39 setup which I can print? Or is it possible to extract the mapfile from TripleA itself?

      Tried it already multiple times. It is really great and adds a new perspective for Asia.

    • RE: Playing Solo

      Did this in the past occasionally but since Covid hit us and we moved to a bigger flat I played Solo games almost every week if nobody is available on TripleA. Benefit for me is to setup the game G40 quite often (a bit of a guilty pleassure to me) and explore new possibillities by adapting starting moves from TripeA games.
      At the moment I play only 3G40 (YoungGrasshoppers Tournament Edition) because of the new order of turns and the strategy change that comes with the rule chnages.
      To keep the “opponent” behaviour unpredictable I tend to use a dice to determine scramble decision (a 1 will cause scrambling actions for the defender). Saw this online in a YG video and I thought it´s worth to use that.
      Still looking forward to meet friends for the post-Covid Face-toface games.

      @victoryfirst just check the latest setup by downloading triplea with the oztea41. That’s what I did for my board.

      @bretters congratulations buddy! Well played 🤙🏻 I have no hope in achieving enough victory points. Have to change my strategy for the new rules obviously. Thanks for the game.

    • RE: Robson (X) vs Kilroynothere (A) G40 YGTE - game2 revenge of the dice gods

      @kilroynothere Hey Kilroy, yes the last 2 weeks were quite busy. We had to do lot´s of stuff with school stuff for our kids and my wife is sick now the second week in a row. It´s just a simple flu but since she got Covid last year every small infection like this leaves her sick for at least two weeks now. But I think I will be ready to continue our game this weekend as my parents will visit us and I have some spare time then. The following weekend will be totally awesome. We have planned a Global War 36 game with some other fellars from Europe and me from Friday till Sunday. As this is the first time for me playing this game face to face I am thrilled.
