Multiple questions on map options for TripleA, especially on research and development

Indeed, it is the good one!
My problem when searching for it was that the map was not looking the same as the boardgame; but you are right, when looking at it closer, I could see that the connections are the same…
Thanks a lot!

everyone in the game can save the game at any point

so you can start a game, and save it later, and continue the next day

also, you can take a play by forum game and start playing it live in the lobby, and also you can take a live game and start playing it pbem.  the games can switch at any point you want.

Yes.  It would just need to be set up as a new XML so that it is selectable as a different mod.

@Veqryn:

P@nther,
Actually the LHTR Heavy Bombers option only gives +1 to total SBR damage on maps where the xml is configured in a certain way.
In Global 1940, it does NOT give any bonus.

Therefore, it is fully rules compliant.
…

Ah, good to know, thanks for the update!
How is it in AA50-ww2v3?

I tested it myself and found out that it is wrong in ww2v3 (AA50) regarding SBR.
There “1” is added to the best die.
It should be “take the best die” only.

Triple A is easily, hands down, my preferred method of playing turn based strategy games.  So many great options and flexibility to ensure things are governed by the engine.  Personally I feel all the added features are nice and since you can turn them all off with a single click they are also not a distraction if I wish to eliminate them from play.  Many add to the atmosphere of the game and while they might appeal to the more juvenile side of my personality isn’t that what escaping to the fantasy of a video game is all about?

Cmdr Jennifer obviously all the efforts you have put into ABattlemap make you biased  towards your own work, and that is understandable.

Ok, I am going to give you guys some motivation to motivate ComradeKev to code the rules for Global, Europe, and Pacific 1940 into the TripleA engine.

Here is how it will work:

I will match 20% of every donation to TripleA, (up to $50 on my end, tho a minimum of $10 on my part).  I will let this little donation drive run for 2 weeks, or a month if it goes well, then I’ll make the big matching donation.

Here is where you go to donate:
https://sourceforge.net/project/project_donations.php?group_id=44492
or directly, here: https://sourceforge.net/donate/index.php?group_id=44492

This money will go to SGB and ComradeKev, who are the people coding TripleA.

Please mention in your COMMENT when you donate, that the donation is specifically for the 1940 RULES!

thx,
veqryn

Are you sure your friend is using the same triplea.jar file that you are using?
