I haven’t played with Triple A much yet.
I have a problem.
I attacked your 2 subs in Z106 with a destroyer, cruiser, and bomber.
Triple A incorrectly rolls the defending subs first, and asks for a casualty choice.
Problem is, before I choose a casualty I should know how many hits I scored on your subs. This makes a difference in choosing whether to lose my destroyer or cruiser.
Will you allow me to change my choice after seeing how many hits I scored? Because in the proper sequence of events, your subs do NOT have a surprise strike.
It should be:
- Attacker rolls
- Defender chooses casualties
- Defender rolls
- Attacker chooses casualties
It’s doing step 3, then step 4, then step 1, then step 2.
If I take off my destroyer now before seeing my rolls, and I don’t hit you twice, then your sub goes free.
I shouldn’t have to make a casualty choice before seeing my attack roll. It’s a fault with Triple A.Understand? So can I take off my destroyer now and if I don’t score 2 hits, change it to removing the cruiser?
Or… I could roll it out on the forum and then use edit mode to fix it, preserving the hit you got… That’s what I’ll do… -
So these will be the official dice for this battle.
I’ll preserve the hit your subs scored.Here’s my attack roll
Rolls: 1@2 1@3 1@4; Total Hits: 11@2: (5)1@3: (6)1@4: (2) -
OK, so I lose my cruiser after your subs hit me.
Round 2
Rolls: 1@2 1@4; Total Hits: 11@2: (6)1@4: (3)Rolls: 1@1; Total Hits: 01@1: (3) -
OK, Z106 cleared with loss of a cruiser. Destroyer and bomber remain. I’ll use edit mode to reflect this if necessary.
-
Same result in Triple A anyway, so no edit necessary.
Moving on, then. -
Ok, didn’t know the order was wrong. Had to make tough decisions before.
-
I guess this means no 97 scramble? Woo hoo.
-
All of the above was finer with me, btw.

I guess this means no 97 scramble? Woo hoo.
Two different zones with German ships to hit makes 97 out of the question. I hit 95 more than 97 anyway :-)
Also, your buy of 2 transports and carrier makes an attack on Italian ships that are protected by 3 fighters too risky, and the fighters can’t come back to UK to defend -
I guess this means no 97 scramble? Woo hoo.
Shipyards and no fighters lost on UK1! Zero casualties in Ethiopia! Woo hoo!
You did get good fortune in 96 and 106, though… But at least you didn’t get freaky good luck!

Yeah shipyards ftw.
Could you move an AA gun over to S. France so it’s less attractive to attack with the French? Thanks.

did you guys agree that this is a tech game?

Looks like in my inexperience with TripleA I totally overlooked South Africa on the UK turn.
Will you allow the late move of 2 infantry to Rhodesia?I will leave the destroyer where it is since you moved Italy with it way down there, but I think it’s reasonable to request the infantry move up as it had no effect on Italy’s turn…
Thanks…

No, I demand you edit my moves but you CANT!
