Using a dice server is Just as secure as rolling them in the forum (and possibly more secure).  Everyone who wants to see them, will be emailed each die directly by the server.

Besides, rolling dice in the forum completely defeats the purpose of using triplea.

How works using a dice server? If it's similar to rolling in the forum, we could use forum anyway. If it's like frood, probably we should use forum dices instead

But I can play with the internal TripleA dices...  I assume this is a PBEM game, not a on-line game, true?

I'm good with having the server dice so long as at least two people are getting them. I trust most of the people here except cow . . . he's a little shady. 

Seriously though, having two people that can verify dice rolls should be plenty to keep people and each other from being tempted.

You can't really use forum dice easily with TripleA.

give me your email, and you will see what a "dice server" is really quick...

FYI to everyone who is giving me emails:

you will get emails from Marti [at] tripleawarclub.org

you will get an email each time a set of dice are rolled.

so please set up a "rule" in your email account to move these dice to a folder


example:
I have hotmail
in hotmail (and i know gmail does too), you can set up an email rule, where incoming emails are filtered
I created a new folder called "dice", and I set up the rule that any email from the dice server goes into that folder

I did this so that my main inbox does not get spammed.  You could also setup individual folders within dice for each of your TripleA games.

Yea Func, once it's setup it's really easy.

I offered my Email, so did Canuck.  Dice will be fairly observed.  Looking forward to this game starting!

OK so who do I email again? I am trying to figure out if I am supposed to post a save up on this forum or if we are doing PBEM... like dice results from the server getting mailed or posted on forum... makes no difference to me.

@Seth France usually gets screwed in FFA. Especially when spain stabs ya in the back

We shouldn't play a game on this thread here, we should start a new thread where we play in the proper forum.

NO POLITICAL ACTIONS FROM FRANCE.

I'll do my turn and have dice emailed around.

[Cow]

!!!! I started doin my combat moves and the game was low luck!! I am sorry. I do my combat again using dice. so you may get two emails.

[Cow]

OK I am not sure the automatic casualty thingy makes the order of losses in the most desirable fashion...

I lost the naval war! I am unfamiliar with the naval pieces, but the really crappy looking ship was apparently the second best unit to attack with for me after the battleship. I am not so sure of this, but grats uk on your iron defense!

Sent dice thingy to garg and canuck.

[Gargantua]

WHy don't we have a proper game thread?

Who goes after France?

Go to THIS THREAD HERE.

Thread moved actually.

I started a new thread here:
http://www.axisandallies.org/forums/index.php?topic=27181.0

I had to start a new thread because:
1. I wanted to post the game notes in the first thread, so that people would have a reference point all the time for them.
2. Cow's game did not start with the correct options, and it also did not start with a dice server, or the emails for the dice server, or as a PBEM/PBF game, which it needed to start as for this to work.

Everyone go here for the new game:

The Napoleonic Empires FFA looks really fun.

I figure the game you have going could last quite awhile, but does anyone already playing have an interest in a fresh (potentially concurrent) match starting June 12th or so?

(can't start now since I'm going out of the country for a week)
