Trying a radical attack. Scramble from Leningrad?
L23 BM4 Gamerman (Allies+10) vs Roboto (Axis)

I think I was successful in forwarding them to you so you should have them twice. I’m just waking up, though. And I have to go now.
-
It’s getting weirder and weirder. I can only see you forwarded me the mail with the 1,2,3,4 rolls I did in my attack. I can’t see anything else!

Whoa. I am probably in a parallel universe. I’ll try again anyway.
-
One at 8:06 my time, the other at 8:12. Did you run twice in PBEM?
-
No I did not. And I only got the one that I showed you
Even in the first mail that you sent me it looks like that:
In your second attempt I can see the 5443 roll. But I never got that one, neither in TripleA nor as mail.
How is that possible?@gamerman01 said in L23 BM4 Gamerman (Allies+10) vs Roboto (Axis):
Why are their 2 e-mails for your attack? They both appear to be 3 hits, though
But if I’m not mistaken 5443 would not be 3 hits, though. It would only be 1 hit, am I right?
@gamerman01 said in L23 BM4 Gamerman (Allies+10) vs Roboto (Axis):
And I’m just happy I hit 3 back
Or did you mistake that roll with your defense? 5443 with 1 destroyer and 3 fighters would be 3 hits.
-
I am mostly curious, to be clear I still do not doubt your honesty and sportsmanship.
I did have a separate e-mail for the defense that came to me at 8:58, a different time than the other 2.
-
Looking at your screenshot, it looks like you only got the 1 roll so far? Not even the defense? And like you said, definitely not the repeated offense roll that had different numbers.
Do you use local a lot and alternate with PM and do mock moves? (I sure don’t :grinning: but I know people do)
-
I don’t have time, it’s another moving day, so I’m just checking in. Maybe we wait and see if more of them trickle in for you.
Meanwhile, I don’t think you’ve posted the save at the end of Italy’s dastardly turn
-
There are many posts, but I am not seeing the end of the turn map.
We need to see if we can discover something about this MARTI e-mail, too. You did not run the turn more than once in more than one instance of Triple A, then -
I do sometimes do mock turns, but not very often. I did not do it with this Italy turn (if I recall correctly).
I did some thinking and I do have a pretty good idea of what happened. When I play lots of turns in a row without closing TripleA in between, the engine crashes.
Sometimes it freezes, sometimes it’s just super super slow (unplayable slow), sometimes it doesn’t load at all and I even have to restart my computer. In all cases, I have to shut down TripleA with the task manager.
I can show you the error the next time I encounter it. Something with “java heap” somethingsomething.
Now most of the time this error occurs when loading a map, but occasionally it happens while playing.
It never occured to me that the engine freezes but still loads and rolls the combat in background. This is what must have happened.
But why did the engine send you a mail but not me?And yeah, I did not get the defense Mail either. Someone (I think it was even you!) mentioned in the League general discussion thread, that Yahoo Mail works better than GMail and this case seems to confirm it. I think I’m gonna create a Yahoo Mail for MARTI.

Now since apparently the game rolled that combat, this is what we should go with.
That means I only scored 1 hit with you defending with 3 hits.
I’ll retreat then. See file attached. -
Just had it during my game with Simon…
-
Ooooh, that’s interesting.
I now have this:
I have never seen this before haha. Maybe because it took me a while to post the picture here and I let TripleA open for a while.

The rolls in MARTI have been out of order, though, too. And last night the MARTI connection froze on my last die roll of a turn against elche.
If they are out of order, you definitely scored 1 hit, but could possibly be a 2nd hit, if that 4 was for the bomber.
I am happy with my defense roll.
I would be very happy if I only took 1 hit (and I probably would have taken a plane off instead of the destroyer if you asked me a casualty having scored only 1 hit).So if you honorably go with a roll that looks like 1 hit, I would ask that you replace a fighter with the destroyer especially to disrupt the NO.
However, as I said I can’t be sure that first roll didn’t actually score 2 hits. I offer you 3 options:
- Stay with only 1 Italian hit and let me change my casualty to lose a plane instead of the destroyer
- I will split it with you and give you 2 hits against the Americans and you leave a destroyer in the water
- Re-roll the Italian attack, with a maximum of 3 hits and a minimum of 1 hit. Because your better (albeit, later) roll was 3 hits, and the first MARTI e-mail was for at least 1 hit, could have been 2.
If you score 3 hits, I would have lost the destroyer for sure.
I don’t know what happened, but I trust you a lot. That’s why I don’t like option #1.
Please consider, and I hope you choose #2 or #3 or maybe you have an option 4 I didn’t think of - thanks man!!! But especially thanks for not destroying all my stuff! :flushed: -
There is another question. With all your experience you might know what this means.
I am able to open your save file in local, but NOT PBEM.
-
Hm, probably because I finalized the turn in Local mode because I didn’t want to confuse us by rolling again.
I actually did #1 earlier, but I’ll gladly take your offer and reroll the attack!
Just to not confuse us any more, I will roll it here on the forums!
Attacker: 3 fighter, 1 bomber
[dice 3d6<=3]
[dice 1d6<=4] -
3d6<=3: 5, 3, 4; Hits: 1
1d6<=4: 4; Hits: 1 -
I’m glad you took the dice rolling solution, and TWO is a great compromise!!! Thanks man!!
-
Leave the destroyer please (also part of the compromise)
-
And deduct 5 from the grubby Italians
