@Panther

We have a question. When you attack a Sea Zone with aircraft and submarines and want to retreat during battle, is it possible to retreat the aircraft and let the submarines stay in that sea zone, if no destroyer is present? TripleA gives the following options.

Retreat:
The submarines retreat and move back to one sea zone where they came from, the aircraft can retreat as usual.

Continue:
The submarines are given the option to submerge and stay in the sea zone, while the aircraft have to go through one more round of combat. After that, they can retreat.

We are wondering if TripleA does it incorrectly here, and you can retreat aircraft while at the same time submerging your submarines in the same round of combat.

By the rules the decision to retreat is made after casualty selection (Step 6 of the General Combat Sequence). The decision to submerge is made in Step 2 of the (next) General Combat Sequence.

So TripleA indeed handles this unprecisely. In case you decide to retreat you have to retreat with all units.

@VictoryFirst

I just noticed that Celebes is giving +2 instead of +1 when liberarted.

Idk if that’s the case in your game with Panzer, but keep an eye out for it. I will fix for next update.

[barnee]

@VictoryFirst

yea just checked, it was only ANZAC that was coded wrong

[barnee]

@VictoryFirst

so Celebes works correctly for everyone else

Still need to dick with the size, but I think it’ll be cool to have images from The Captain’s Rulebook show up when a Notification fires :)

@barnee

You said you wanted to do a game report? Perhaps we could do two reports, one for the first half for the game and one for the second half. Lol I like your reports a lot more than mine, so if you feel something for it… :) Or we could just do one if you want :)

[VictoryFirst]

@barnee

Yeah that’s indeed a very cool idea to have some of The Captain’s pictures added! It would be a nice visual cue I think :)

Lol but I would not include all those things at the top from your browser in the picture 😂 You can also make bordered screenshots that don’t capture the whole screen.

[barnee]

@VictoryFirst

heh heh yea I noticed that too

I had to shrink it about 50% I’ll mess with it some. See if I can get the whole image to show up

[barnee]

the swiss are winning lol

[VictoryFirst]

@barnee Lol I noticed that too. Poor Panzerstahl-helm! Germany was doing so great, I’m surprised they lost. I guess they couldn’t handle the swiss cheese lol :)

[barnee]

@VictoryFirst

ha ha they tied it lol

[VictoryFirst]

@barnee

Lol shit I clicked away after 90+1. That stadium must have exploded once that goal fell lol.

[barnee]

@VictoryFirst

well swiss just missed being up 2-0. Offsides. I guess it’s like hockey. I don’t watch soccer. Last game I watched it started out 0-0 and 3 hours later it was 0-0 lol

The race is getting rained on, so i figured i’d check out the soccer lol

Womens golf now :)

[barnee]

@VictoryFirst

better anyways lol

[barnee]

@VictoryFirst

I was thinking the other day about changing the Island Tokens once there activated. Give it a red background.

Not really an easy way to add a chart and keep track but triplea gives you the oob values, so just need to add and subtract for the ones that have been activated.

I kinda nixed it as TMI but now I wonder if maybe it might not be a good idea. Be real easy to see which Islands are in play.

Idk

:)
