IMPORTANT note to all:

DO NOT go to TripleA 2.2.x or later, as there is a very nasty battle calc bug that hangs every time you try to do a naval battle calc involving offensive subs. It has made my game with ksmckay miserable, to the point where we decided to recreate our game (only into round 3) using TripleA 1.9. And you can’t correct the problem using a later TripleA client version, as the bug exists in the game save itself. Here’s our game for your further reference: https://www.axisandallies.org/forums/topic/35823/axis-dominion-vs-ksmckay-allies-18-bm3/109

I did NOT experience this issue in version 2.1.20625, FYI, so I believe that is a safer 2.1.x version. I can’t say for sure if this started only as of 2.2.x and if so, which specific ‘x’ that is, but it’s nasty nasty nasty, I promise you will hate your life, so avoid like the plague!!!

unfortunately I had not read and I had the same problem in the game with dawegoneit…

I wish they would fix the bug where playing on local loses all of the forum play information.

Does anybody else use this for battle calc?

@LennardF Yeah, but it doesn’t include P2V rules.

Did you notice the suggestion that this only happens if you load it up with an earlier version? If you use 2.2.20868, there is no evidence there is a problem (yet).

Essentially, all players should use the same version and then the problem doesn’t occur. I’m playing two games at the moment, one using 2.2.20868 and for the other I’m using 2.1.20365 because that’s what my opponent is using.

And it’s more than just the game hanging, it also removes sub evasion and submerging, and it interferes with the subs stealth movement.

yes… this version :( … but …perhaspboth players must have it?

[simon33]

Not only must both players use it, they must use it every time. A single save with an earlier version will cause the problem.

[axis-dominion]

A ghost sighting!!!

[LennardF]

TripleA is telling me there’s a new version available - I’m gonna hold off until I finish current games but I’m curious if anybody has tried out the new version.

“A new version of TripleA is out. Please Update TripleA!
Your current version: 2.2.20868 Latest version available for download: 2.3.22161”

[trulpen]

I use 2.4.22179. Works fine.

Watch out when using battle calc in version 2.5 (maybe even in some previous versions)

In previous version u had to turn on the ADD AMPHIBIOUS ATTACK MODIFIERS

for your bats and cruisers shots to be included in the calculation.

Now U dont, u just put the cruisers and bats in the calculator, and even u havent pressed ADD AMPHIBIOUS ATTACK MODIFIERS

it still counts as if u had.

it will give u the same results, either u pressed or not have pressed the ADD AMPHIBIOUS ATTACK MODIFIERS button

how often do the league standings get updated?

[gamerman01]

Daily when Gamer is in a hot A&A game
I try for at least weekly but when I get busy and distracted, sometimes it’s a bit longer.
Congratulations on finishing 3 games, 2-1, and a 3.67 Points per game average! Welcome to the league

I don’t think I’ve ever asked anybody this, but I would like to ask you - how did you discover the league and decide to try it out? How long have you been playing A&A? Thanks

[TheVeteran]

@gamerman01
Nice, thank you!

[TheVeteran]

@gamerman01
Well I knew my buddy (IRL) Captain Napalm was playing league on here and so I decided I’d join him. Feckingwrecked was one of my wins on league we have been playing games casually (we know each other in person as well) and just brought our game to the league this time.

I learned Axis and allies back when I was in college so sometime between 2006-2009 and then didn’t play much for years (except for games against the AI on TripleA lol) until recently been playing a lot sense I met Joel aka feckingwrecked back in May of 2019.

[aequitas-et-veritas]

@gamerman01 Wittman introduced me to the League. He said I should join and I did.
Never regret it. Found tons of people for a nice challenge and a couple new friends on top!

[gamerman01]

Sweet, guys, thanks, good to know

BOOM!
Did I scare you?

I was in a bar in Vancouver BC called the “Junction” and started hearing some regular nerd call @Gargantua talk about some game. He said it was better than chess but he would tell me its name so I put him in a headlock and made him squeal! He never came back!

I play A&A only with weights. 2 45lbs on each end baby! Boom all day!

[gamerman01]

Pretty epic, to first hear of the game from Gargantua in the flesh
