I feel like I just read the Axis & Allies edition of Moby Dick
Any News?

@JuliusBorisovBeamdog You guys have been really on top of things with the patches/hot-fixes and I just wanted to let you know that it’s appreciated.
Haven’t had a chance to do another really thorough write-up on changes I’d like to see so I’ll just reiterate my main gripe that hasn’t been fixed yet AFAIK (that can be addressed in a realistic amount of time):
- Between battles in combat and game phases, the map tends to zoom in to maximum. I wish it wouldn’t do this (and just keep whatever zoom level the player is currently using) because I have to spend time zooming back out repeatedly during a turn. I get that most people probably like seeing the little units on the map, but I prefer looking at things from afar so I can see the big picture at all times.
It might just be a placebo, but I’ve noticed that, during combat move, the units seem to better indicate where they’re going. I don’t know if I’ve just gotten used to the UI or if a fix was made. If a fix was made, thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Side-note: Currently 3-0. 2-0 as Allies, 1-0 as Axis. Currently in another game where that was supposed to be 3-player, but my teammate got kicked for not making his play so now it’s a 1v1. Probably going to win that one too because Axis are bonkers.

We released another hot fix yesterday to fix the AI in Online MP. https://steamcommunity.com/games/898920/announcements/detail/1616149305736279171

Based on the feedback we plan to introduce an alternate game setup to the out-of-box experience - https://steamcommunity.com/app/898920/discussions/0/1643170903490462635/?ctp=2#c1639794651166372767

This is really good news! Thanks man
I think for many players this will bring the board largely into balance. At least the bid in the tournament patch was much narrower.

@Black_Elk @JuliusBorisovBeamdog Interesting news for sure! Is this the LHTR ruleset or a new and unique setup? Can’t check Steam as I’m at work.
Thanks for doing this, though! I still have my dream of playing other versions on this client but I’m grateful for having OOB + an alternative setup for this map (for free) within ~1 month of launch.

Time to dust off my keyboard, I guess.
Is there a leaderboard available anywhere? Can’t access the links from work.
