OK. Let me spell this out simply. I have asked twice before to no avail.

Can someone walk me through the steps to getting ABattlemap on my computer, and getting it ready to play a Global 1940 game by forum?

And my guess is this might be somewhere already that I haven’t found. If that is true, please link me to the page with ABattlemap available for download.

@TheGheko91 Are you wanting to make it harder to beat the AI when playing solo?
If so you can use the unit edit.Make the nation you are playing weaker by removing some starting units and/or add a few staring units to your AI controlled opposition.I find the AI will never capture 2 enemy capitals,so set it for economic victory,which you can adjust the numbers when setting up your game.

@Panther

I came up with this before I used TripleA. TripleA is still vastly superior, but I wanted to share this anyway. It’s still somewhat useful for playing house rules that you cannot otherwise edit easily on TripleA.

As I said, you send the emails to yourself to keep track of it.

As for why do I not do Google Docs instead, I just didn’t do it and didn’t think of it.

I only used the Notes app on the Ipad, which doesn’t really work, and emails.

So perhaps Microsoft Word might be better.

It is very complicated. I do not recommend playing Global 1940 using this. Anything less complicated is manageable, but best to stick with the more simple side.

Thanks for moving it.

@Wonder_Angel:

Fantastic, thanks very much!

Is there a rating system or a ladder of some kind?

Yes, there is. Check out

Yes Black Elk there needs to be a polished, turn-key, easily-played and down loaded version of A&A fully endorsed by Larry Harris and Avalon Hill. It would bring in thousands if not millions of players into A&A. Go to and brick and mortar game store and they almost snicker at the mention of A&A and yet we have a huge but almost unknown community. A game as polished and "store-bought’ as the Hasbro version or like a Facebook or Google Play App game would bring A&A into the next century. I like to think someone is listening.

Hi, welcome

I’m not the best person to anwser this since I’d don’t have a Mac and I don’t know what software they use to play “here”

however, :p
I believe TripleA and GameTableOnline both run on the Mac natively.

You can play Windows games on the Mac…
by using Parallels desktop, VMWare Fusion, or Boot Camp.

I didn’t see this anywhere else except something similar with iron blitz (which I don’t have) so I hope it’s okay to start a new topic.

I was wondering if you guys here know of any mods or patches or workarounds so all the countries could either fight each other from the beginning or make it so the winning alliance turns on each other after the opposing alliance loses. If there isn’t one, I’d be happy to create one myself if anyone knows what would be involved and would be kind enough to get me started in the right direction.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

@TMTM:

Hey Stoney! Good job on the modules! I haven’t looked but have you updated or added to the tutorial for making modules? Feel free to add the next chapter to the knowledge base for everyone to find and use etc. Thanks!

Alright, here’s my two cents! I hope some of you find it helpful - please feel free to post feedback in my tutorial’s thread: http://www.axisandallies.org/forums/index.php?topic=18773.0
