Yes you are using an older version, as I am not able to open your save files and I have the latest version. However that issue you are bringing up is really weird and should not be caused by the older version I think. I don’t know what could be going on, that issue has never happened to me.

I suggest you use the newest version next time and see if it comes up again somewhere.

@Krieghund Thanks! (For completeness, I should have been more clear in that Germany controlled Persia at the beginning of its turn in this example. i.e. there was/is a legal landing zone for the fighter)

@Karl7

4 inf in Belorussia

@kwaspek104

what would you have done if I had done this on the previous turn?

@kwaspek104

yeah okay, i think thats 100% on both ends.

not a good game but appreciate the sentiment - i think we should go again but whoever is Germany should go without the SCA. Shall I try it again as Germany?

Made the same mistake again 😅

@The_Good_Captain

Just to be precise:

The TripleA website is :
https://triplea-game.org/

The (module) map-repositories (most of them included in TripleA) have been maintained and hosted here:
https://github.com/triplea-maps/
for more than a decade.

Every map (module / specific game) downloaded directly via TripleA stems from there - or has made its way from map-creators’ drives to the ‘official’ repositories.

Usually this written information with the given headline of this thread should be in the TripleA-support category.
But as the video is about @VictoryFirst 's efforts and contributions I recommend to change the title of this topic to something “non-TripleA-technical”.

(Somehow I missed this topic in 2024, so please excuse my late reaction.)

@DoManMacgee @kwaspek104

I did the German turn and then the power cut out so there is no save.

Its okay bc the Germans got killed everywhere. Blown out of Libya - cut up bad in France and most the blockers hit elsewhere.

I’m good, gg I concede. Those first three turns are just so damn critical…

@The_Good_Captain Also, from page 9:

Axis & Allies: D-Day is played in a series of turns. A turn consists of one pass through the sixteen order cards, and then a check for victory.

Since victory is checked at the end of each turn, the Allies must hold the required zones until the end of turn 10.

@The_Good_Captain

Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes!!!

Good game. Although you did get some horrible dice at the end there.

@SuperbattleshipYamato of course. These games are actually very helpful as a continuation of studying this game. Very much appreciate these games with you.

@The_Good_Captain

Same sides.

@The_Good_Captain Thank you for that.

@VictoryFirst

My bid will be two infantry in Malta and two infantry in Karelia. Fire when ready.

Understood about the modules. The shouldn’t change the script. Take your time - I haven’t shot anything yet. Should be done this weekend/week.

@DoManMacgee said in TGC (Germany) vs Kwaspek and DoMan (Allies) - Europe Game 2:

@The_Good_Captain To give more context:

You lost an INF attacking Belo, didn’t attack Russia (2 INF) and sent a Tank to attack Archangel. Put that all together + the fact that we had 57% Odds + the fact that your air was out of position to actually punish a failure + the fact that the US/UK guys in Leningrad could have tried cleaning up if it was a near-loss and the original plan was to “try 1 round of combat and see what happens”.

I was just going to back up to Moscow if the first round of dice went badly but after 1 round of combat our odds jumped to 82% so I just rolled on at that point.

My/Our question to you Re: this game is why you pulled everything out of ME early only to about-face and go back into ME later in the game. We were anticipating a ~60% odds attack for Germany Vs. Moscow at one point earlier in the game, which made us bend over backwards to rush everything into position to keep the odds to just 60% your-favor (instead of something decisive like 85+). Yet, to our surprise, the attack never came, and you pivoted into an econ-game despite having pulled pieces out of the ME previously.

Because I already played the 60% game. Been there done that several times now -nothing new to learn there. I’ve also flipped the board economy in Germany’s favor before and forced concession without a fight in Moscow. Since the goal is to cut videos about best practices, the intent was to experiment with a mid-game attempt on the economy (again - given that I’ve already seen the script you just mentioned).

@The_Good_Captain The rule applies in all sea battles where there are sea units allied to the attacker present, regardless of the type(s) of defending German sea units. The rule mentions only German subs because the author failed to take into account the possibility that the situation could also exist with German surface units if they were mobilized in a hostile sea zone. This oversight was corrected in the Axis & Allies Pacific Rulebook.
