Please declare a casualty,
The first round was an obvious choice, but if you clean me out in this battle, one could argue he would have saved a transport. Unlikely, but I want to make sure, thank you!
I didn’t know you could post to the forum in the middle of your turn. I’ll have a look.
Max defense (so transport first)
Thank you,
I’m glad you’ve discovered the mid-game posting.
Now I wonder (because some very experienced and successful Triple A players are unaware) whether you know about the game notes feature in Triple A! I’ll explain a bit more after posting my turn.
And I feel bad, I am exploiting the very bad luck you had, but I’d better or you could make me pay, later. Classic is such a crazy shoot from the hip game compared to the later ones - a reminder that A&A should not be taken too seriously

The dice did deliver you a 33% result in the big air/fleet battle, so I won’t feel QUITE as bad, but the China J1 dice were just devastating.
So if you go to view -> show comment log, you will see that players can enter notes that are kept.
Since I learned last year in my re-entry to Classic about the whole limited units available thing.
The_Good_Captain tells me the goal is to implement a feature into TripleA that will track the remaining units (not an issue at all if you’re playing on a board with no missing pieces!) in a year.
Until then, I think game notes is definitely the way to go.
If you buy an AA or IC, enter a comment that updates the count.
This way we can also watch out for bombers and carriers, especially, as well.
Watch out, there’s only 1 IC left!

but the China J1 dice were just devastating.
I used to be indignant, years ago, when some would refer (online) to Axis and Allies as a “beer and pretzels game”. Well I don’t remember what version they were referring to, but I see they have a good point if it’s Classic.
It’s great, compared to the much more complicated versions, Classic kind of forces you to just have fun. @The_Good_Captain
All - in! Nice!!
Um, let’s see…
I dunno, lose the Russians and British infantry, thanks for asking

@gamerman01 Thanks! I didn’t know the piece limits for generic units apply to ALL powers (while in fact, it’s quite logical although didn’t think about it). This makes it quite interesting, you can buy ICs just to make sure your opponents can’t! 😂

I am glad you posted,
I really didn’t want to ambush you with this but I feel I already kind of have. Well, it’s double elimination…
I am REALLY enjoying this game, I’m so glad the guys got me to play 2 Classic games a year ago. I’m curious what your A&A background is. You definitely have skills and experience.
