What do I need to do and know in order to play a game by email/ forum?

@squirecam TY bro add me if you want.

@Panther Thanks!

You were right, @barnee, it were my higher powers at work! 😉

@usmc3537x You just need to download TripleA: https://triplea-game.org/download/

Then you can download the maps from in game after installing and launching it. You can play against the AI, join the lobby to play live, or play by forum/email.

More detailed instructions can be found here: https://www.axisandallies.org/forums/topic/17147/gargantua-s-k-i-s-s-triplea-instructions

Another great learning path you can take is 1941, 1942, and finally 1940.  More complicated/bigger usually equals more fun and more time-consuming.

Anniversary is still the most popular among loyal but infrequent gamers.

Ive managed to open the files so I think ive figured this out. I just need to download BigPieces.bmp so the units wont be microscopic.

thnx ncs:  i went to the 2nd site & i downloaded what i had to ( not very computer literate sorry).  so how do i start a game w/ others or join in 1?

i have been able to play 1v1s no problem over ms zone….however, when i join a game with more than 2 people, i only see the host in the game chat room immediately after the game launches…anyone know or heard of this problem before? any help on this topic would be greatly appreciated.
