Is there any way to change the name of threads manually?

Sure. Just move to the very first posting of the topic, hit “Edit” and change the headline.
This is possible in most forum categories, but not in “Play Boardgames” where edits are never allowed. So type carefully there ;-) . However, you can ask a moderator by pm to edit the title, there.

In that case it is important to send the link to the respective topic and what you want to have corrected there.

@VictoryFirst

I recommend to finish current games with 2.6 and then start new games with 2.7.
Also, yes, all players should have the latest version installed.
2.7 is still in pre-status however.

@barnee

Yeah I don’t know how to do the stats with all the multis and the learning games but at least I can document them in the list of all games 😀

@VictoryFirst yeah, go ahead and put two brits in Malta and 2 Russian inf in Karelia. Fire when ready.

@VictoryFirst all good. i’ve kind of lost interest in this game anyways. if you would like to play a game of something else just let me no.

@The_Good_Captain

Yeah I think even if I destroyed your fleet the Allies would still have won just because I had no chance of posing threats to Russia. At some point, I couldn’t even move into East Poland anymore 😂

Anyway, I’d be happy to switch sides after every game, so I’ll be the Allies this time. I’ll place two infantry in Malta and two infantry in Ukraine.

@VictoryFirst

It worked!

I needed to turn national objectives off for a Global 1940 variant known as “Armies vs Navies” (more information here: https://www.axisandallies.org/forums/topic/40017/axis-and-allies-global-1940-armies-vs-navies-compatible-with-triplea/23).

Would you like to playtest this version with me? It would be the first time playing this map with a human opponent (I’ll take navies, you take armies, we’ll play with the basic rules, not the optional one). Thank you!

@The_Good_Captain

Awesome! Likewise, I thank you for playing! You are an excellent opponent! Yeah the German reinforcements in Rennes caught me off guard 😂. I wasn’t expecting any more Germans to come this late in the game.

Your shift toward Caen was a great move. It was an area where I was weaker and my forces around St. Lo couldn’t very easily help defend without giving up St. Lo. I should’ve probably distributed my forces more evenly and sent a bit fewer troops to Cherbourg (six tanks remaining are a bit too many, a couple of tanks could probably have been used somewhere else). I think even if I managed to hold St. Lo, you still would have been able to contest Caen as you have 8 troops to attack it. I’d need to get 5 strafe rolls and 3 hits with my 8 artillery. Not sure what the odds on that are but I think you have a decent chance to have a unit remaining.

I am almost finished with fixing D-Day. I am now trying to find a way to make 2 or more fighters automatically do multiple strafe rolls. Also, there might be a way to make AA guns automatically fire at aircraft. Do you have any more suggestions about fixes?

@VictoryFirst

The answer of @djensen implies that the issue could be resolved by switching to a newer forum theme, what might lead to other problems.

@Panzerstahl-Helm

Thank you so much for the awesome game! What a battle this was! Also this game was entirely different from all the others I’ve played. This was the first time for me that the Germans captured Moscow. You’ve been an excellent opponent and many times you posed enough problems that I had to scratch my head on what to do! 😀

I’d love to play the return match whenever you like, so let me know when you are ready! 😁

Lol this combat between a destroyer and a sub lasted for 13 rounds. What is your longest DD vs sub battle ever?

@VictoryFirst Thank you, done!

@dawgoneit

I am very sorry to hear that. My heartfelt condolences for you and your family’s loss…

@Panzerstahl-Helm

Hey, I wish to continue this game, but I can’t load the R1 file. It says “This file was made on a newer version of TripleA”, but I believe I have the latest. Did you run this on the pre-release?

I hope all is well. your up

@VictoryFirst A very good game! I’d love to play again; I am currently working on downloading your map you so graciously sent me. Thank you! We could try tournament, but my experience has been that while it is good for games you want to go by quickly, the “regular” ruleset is more solid. Mostly the 2 movement into contested zones is what makes me say that; huge consequences can result from technicalities.
