Hi guys, wife had the baby about a week ago, she and the boy are doing well, but all of us still getting little sleep or time for much else. I may be able to take a look at the turn in the next few days if you’re OK waiting a bit longer. Thanks!

RE: L25 G40 OOB Jacob16 (Axis) vs. VictoryFirst (Allies+50)
I can verify that proton mail does work for the verification setup (and that gmail no longer does). I signed up for a proton email a couple of weeks ago and I get MARTI dice. I am only using that address for TripleA games at this point. But as VF says, you don’t need to receive the dice as long as you trust your opponent ;)

RE: Global 2nd edition Q+A ( AAG40.2)
Page 16 of the Europe rulebook (under Phase 2: Combat Move):
“Scrambling is a special movement that the defender can make at the end of this phase.”
[Which I take to mean only during Phase 2]Also page 16:
“Surviving scrambled air units land during that turn’s Noncombat Move phase, before the attacker makes any movements.”
[Therefore even if scramblers still exist above the SZ, they retreat before UK makes their Non-Combat movements] -
RE: NML 1914 team game 16
I am happy enough to play Germany. It will likely be different from what you’re all used to (being my first time) and maybe not optimized. But I’m excited to try some things out!

https://github.com/triplea-game/triplea/releases?page=14
I am currently running 2.6.14748
I don’t think it matters too much exactly which release you download, just as long as it is in the 2.6. range it should work with the forum.

RE: Post League Game Results Here
I don’t know how many players play games in real-time. I believe most players here do either Play by Forum or Play by Email. I don’t think players hang out in a lobby looking for games either. If people want to play in real-time, they would probably arrange a time to meet with another player.

RE: Global 1942 GenCon setup - Stu (L) v Simon (X+7)
Although it looks like the Germans are -9 so far. I would have preferred it the opposite way ):

Yeah, even at 5 dice it’s only about 60% to hit. Still feels bad to miss though…

RE: 1914 Game 17: Simon as Germany, PP as Austria and nasty Witt as Turkey.
I assumed mostly infantry casualties in Piedmont; Italy or France please feel free to edit a different choice if you want. Also, I may be away for an indeterminate while, as my wife is due to give birth any day now. Please feel free to have my allies make decisions for me in my absence if necessary. Hope to be back soon friends!

Yeah, trading unlucky misses on both sides. I’m satisfied enough with the results, but it would have been nice to get some value out of the units dropped into Belgium.
