Well, the moderator of the league is gamerman01, so he knows best, but I will take a quick stab at it here.
- Attack orders/Scramble requests:
- Generally once you send the request, these attack orders become locked in. You can’t ask about scrambling, get a response you don’t really like, then change your mind and change up the attacks.
-
Attack rolls:
Once you start, you have to at least finish 1 round of attacks and then retreat if you made a mistake or its not going your way. You can do as much “simulation” gaming as you wish with local rolls, but once they are sent to the dice server, thy are locked in and cannot be changed. If there is an obvious blunder made, like in your case bringing in the transports, that can be addressed after the attacks are resolved - that would have been an easy edit back. -
When is it OK to make edits?
Generally, when all the main dice rolls have completed, the Non-Combat Move phase is moves unaffected by dice. Most players allow virtually as much edits as you need here, provided the other side hasn’t started their turn. If you have significant edits to make, you should post quickly and ask the other player to hold off until you complete them. Forgotten obvious walk-in attacks or killing of defenseless transports are a bit more gray, but most players here will allow this to take place as well if you missed something. If it is justifiable that the move “would not have been affected by any of the dice outcomes”, this is usually permitted, but should be requested, as your opponent could technically deny it, as it needed to be included with your initial Combat phase declarations. Most people here are pretty casual and out for a fun game, so aren’t sticklers about this, but then some are.
-
I confirm, those are good explanations about the technicalities and realities of league play.

@FranceNeedsMorePower @Daaras @gamerman01
Ok, it looks like you ran the same series of attacks twice. I’m ok with you pulling out of the USA Gib SZ attack, but you should keep the original rolls for the other attacks that came through the dice server for USA.
Also, you did a Chinese infantry + fighter attack on Anhwe, but it doesn’t appear in the 2nd attacks.
@Daaras are you able to reconstruct what happened from the marti dice?
@FranceNeedsMorePower can you talk to us about the Chinese attack on Anhwe? -
@Booper Yes, as I mentioned although it was more than likely difficult to see I had to re-do my whole turn because when I asked about the scramble I had no file saved and I already closed out of my current one so had to re do my turn.
Btw, this was also before I decided to move out of the Sea attack. I believe there are other changes I would assume between them due to me having to re-take my turn at separate times. If I re-call I think when I re-did my turn I just didn’t do any attacks involving dice with China and just stacked.

@FranceNeedsMorePower @Daaras @gamerman01
OK, I’ve tried to decipher what happened with the first USA turn vs the 2nd. The main difference I see (besides the 2nd not having an attack on SZ91), is in SZ1, the Japanese Sub gets a hit back before dying.
I went ahead made this adjustment, to remove 1 DD from SZ1, as I think USA should stick with the first set of rolls for attacks.
Please let me know if you disagree. Otherwise, @Daaras, feel free to go ahead with your UK turn. Also, @FranceNeedsMorePower, if this change makes you want to re-deploy your USA build, please feel free to do so as well.
Let’s play on!

Anzac/France are up. Please adjust your USA build deployment at this point, if you so desire as well.
Thx!
-
@Booper I’m still fine with my build thanks for asking :) , I will take my turn soon.
-
@Booper What do I do If i clicked past where I auto post the file?
-
You can always force it to post, from the dropdown menu at the top left. Go to File -> Post PBEM/PBF Gamesave
You should use this after setting your attack combat moves, and it asks for Scramble/intercept instructions. Or when you are in the middle of a battle, and need casualty instructions. Then you can resume from the exact spot the game was paused.
-
@Booper Sorry I’m not following I clicked file and don’t see that. Here’s a screenshot.
-
Indeed! Must be a different version of Triple? I’ve had Post PBEM save for as long as I can remember,
It’s control M - maybe that could possibly work for youAssuming you don’t know about it, go View-> unit size -> try 125% I think it’s the only way to play
-
It’s just a fast way of saving and uploading, I think. If you save your game and upload that file to the forum I think it’s effectively the same thing as that File -> Post save thing.
-
Possible you need to start the game as Play by Forum as well, that may be the issue.
Otherwise, just drag the save game file into the posting window, and do it that way.
-
I can confirm, you’re not getting the ability to post from the drop down menu as you didn’t select it as a Forum game when loading in.
