Different Game Pieces?

Don’t forget that Anniversary Ediition is now available.
It is a 6 players game, with a large map.
It is a Deluxe edition with many additional player’s aid like paper money.
Check on youtube, you can compare the unboxing of both 1942.2 and AA50 (Anniversary reprint.)

You need to edit the respective game.xml to be found in the subfolder “games” of your TripleA map.
Best idea would be to study the xml of existing FFA-mods and compare what is different to “regular” game.xml.

Take as an example Napoleonic Empires 5 Player FFA:

here you see

<playerlist><player name="France" optional="false" canbedisabled="true"><player name="UnitedKingdom" optional="false" canbedisabled="true"><player name="AustrianEmpire" optional="false" canbedisabled="true"><player name="OttomanEmpire" optional="false" canbedisabled="true"><player name="Russia" optional="false" canbedisabled="true"><alliance player="UnitedKingdom" alliance="UnitedKingdom"><alliance player="Russia" alliance="Russia"><alliance player="AustrianEmpire" alliance="AustrianEmpire"><alliance player="France" alliance="France"><alliance player="OttomanEmpire" alliance="OttomanEmpire"></alliance></alliance></alliance></alliance></alliance></player></player></player></player></player></playerlist>

There may be other parts of the xml affected.

HTH :-)

I received a personal e mail from a guy named Frank who wanted to play a game (possibly regarding the above post). I think I accidentally deleted the mail, could you write me again Frank? I would like to play a game, practice or whatever.

Greetings all,

Yesturday I read the rules for Axis and allies and I finished my first game today at the Allies (playing my brother who beat the living daylights outta me). Anyways, I am familiar with Diplomacy PBEM (www.redscape.com I’m Blitzkrieg) and I am interested in playing A&A online.

So… if anyone is willing to play a game with me, or four players if you please, I would love to go. I do not know, however, about opening bids (i’ve heard them mentioned as I fish around this site for info) and a couple other tid bits that I don’t yet comprend. The ideal situation would be 1 experianced player and me and 3 other newbies possibly so that we can be babied through a quick game to get the feel? I could trade dip lessons for A&A lessons :D.

Any takers?? Anyone?? We don’t have to play a game but I’m very interested in learning to play A&A PBEM.

Blitzkrieg

Which one should I buy and what is the difference in the 2? Is Iron Blitz a release to fix bugs and be a better game, or is it just and expansion to include ‘marines’ & ‘destroyers’ etc.?

Appearantly you can’t buy Iron Blitz anymore, but you can still get the original A&A just about anywhere fairly cheap.

I think Mr. Ghoul is correct. Furthermore it has come up that one might even exceed the number of stacks as there are units - some kind of addendum, i believe.
