Here you can download TripleA (https://triplea-game.org/) which is a program that allows you to play online, trough pbem or just local (vs AI or friends that come over, without having to actually put up the board, fast and easy gameplay). I dont think you’ll find many players that are willing to play like you suggest, but hopefully for you there are some around. I suggest you try online gaming tough, because there is always someone around that is ready to play at any given time of the day.

I hope you have fun playing and learn lots of new strategies and such. Btw with that program you can play almost any game there is available on the A&A genre and also other games like NWO, Domination, LOTR and much more. Good luck and have fun!

@magnum

I read you only play ftf games? Have you ever heard of Triplea? This is a pc program which offers you a lot of gameplay. Like for instance play by email or trough this forum or even online (which seems like you are playing ftf if your friend and you join the same room (bot). This program also makes life much easier for you. I read you use a Excel sheet, well this program does everything for you. Keeping track of purchase phase, combat movement, combat, non combat movement etc.

I really suggest you download it and try it out. You can find the program here:

@wizmark

Well I hope you do still enjoy playing the game, altough life is harder for you because of my strategy…

@DoManMacgee

Here you can download TripleA (https://triplea-game.org/), which allows you to play every version of the boardgames there are, also other types of boardgames. You can play local (vs computer) or pbem (play by mail) or online (large community).

@wizmark

You as a English men should know that who ever rules the seas (waves) rules the world ;)

@josh-lucky13

I remember that old computer game, fun to play when there was no one around to play the boardgame with, but like you say it was very easy to beat the AI.

The AI in this program is better, it also has different settings as you’ve probably seen. But playing vs a human opponent, especially online, will boost your skill level exponentially.

Personally I think you might like the Global 40 second edition. This game is the next generation of A&A boardgames. It has a lot of new features and even politics.

Well good luck and have fun playing. Perhaps we will play each other one day.

@Bismillah

You are very welcome!! Always nice to have some fresh blood joining the online community. Just a headsup, the computer is fun to play, but youll soon find out that there is much to learn as you play vs online gamers. Most of them are very experienced. The best of luck and have fun playing.

@wizmark

Lol, I know. Its not that I am not working on it. I think I am working too much on it. Already had 6 different scenario’s tested. Its still in progress. Sometimes its the purchase that I dont feel happy with, the other time its the movement or placement. So I hope you can be patient with me. Wanted to make a decission this weekend, but feel I need a little bit more time.

@SuperbattleshipYamato

I will have a look at it, no promises yet :) Its a busy period at the moment

@SuperbattleshipYamato

Yeah, figured there was nothing I could save in our previous game, seeing I started on the wrong foot. Hopefully I am able to start better this time, and from that point live and learn :)

@SuperbattleshipYamato

Hi

Scramble?

oztea1939sbyalvscdsaxger1(Game2).tsvg

@SuperbattleshipYamato

Still not ready, working on both. But kinda busy aswell.

@SuperbattleshipYamato

I am working on it, couple of days at the most, same goes for our europe game.

@SuperbattleshipYamato said in SbY (Al) vs CdS (Ax) Europe 1940 2nd:

@cds

Oh, I see how that would’ve affected the Soviet turn.

If I attacked, would you have sent the fighters to defend the major industrial complex?

Yes, I would have used them to intercept vs your bomber. I dont think you redid the Rus turn yet? We can either edit the damage to the factory to none or redo the sbr run, with new outcome on intercept and aa and damage.

@SuperbattleshipYamato

Well that is kinda messed up :) Need to rethink the whole game then. I have to say, these are some weird rules.
