L23 Martin X vs FlyingBadger L+22 BM4 Playoffs

[Martin]

Can you please see if you can chose the casualties from your side and post the save game afterwards?

[Martin]

Hi @Panther, I hope you are the right person to ask. I use TripleA version 2.6.14366 - a slightly different version than the one used by @FlyingBadger. This has been working well for a few rounds.

I play Germany and posted a savegame with a query for casualties. Once I loaded the savegame and chose the losses, I received the below error message and cannot continue. The same goes for play by email and also when I try local.

Do you have any suggestion how to solve this issue? Let’s see if @FlyingBadger can continue the game from his side.

Thank you very much in advance for your help,
best regards,
Martin

[Martin]

Although I like that “returnfire … is null” :grinning:

[Panther]

@Martin Can you post something that allows me to reproduce the issue?

[Martin]

@Panther Thank you - what do you mean exactly? What should I post?

[Martin]

Can you download the latest savegame below and try to continue the battle?

[Martin]

Here you go:

39632 Round 14 - Germany - combat.tsvg

[Panther]

@Martin With the latest savegame I start at the beginning of the Combat phase and not in the middle of the battle.

[Martin]

@Panther chose the battle of SZ110, and you will see.

[Panther]

@Martin

OK I was able to run through the complete battle without any issue.
I am using the current pre-release.

[Martin]

@Panther that sounds great - what is the current pre-release? Would you have the exact link to it for us to download?

[Panther]

@Martin
It is always here:
https://github.com/triplea-game/triplea/releases

[Martin]

@Panther herzlichen Dank, Panther! Ich werde die Version umgehend installieren und es probieren! Viele Grüße aus Trier :-)

[Panther]

@Martin Gern geschehen. Melde dich gerne, wenn es noch Probleme geben sollte.

[Martin]

I had to chose a landing spot for the remaining Allied planes and chose UK. Feel free to move them to Normandy Bordeaux if that is preferred by you.

[Martin]

I am actually surprised that I had to chose one landing spot for all defending planes. It is clear that attacking units must retreat to the same field or sea zone; but can defending planes not just return to where they came from or, in case their carrier was sunk, to ANY neighboring sea zone?

[FlyingBadger]

@Martin Okay, I think I’m up to speed. I have installed the specified version of TripleA and will now do Russia and hope all is good!

Regarding planes, yes I believe the rules state that you can choose any friendly land territory or carrier (with available space) to land on after returning from a a battle.

[gamerman01]

Guys, I was just checking on this game now because it is the only one still in the first round of the playoffs. We are almost 7 months from the beginning of the year, and it is only round 15.

Please play it out until Martin resigns, but I declare this game over for playoff purposes.

I would expect Martin would be resigning very soon anyway. You have the right to play this game out to the bitter end, but because you are the last one in the bracket and there is a clear victory, I want Badger to advance right now and play Sovietish cat.

FlyingBadger did not contact me about this. Martin, you are so friendly and good to me, but this is the right call. Again, don’t resign until you want, but Badger advances as of now.
