"Heavy Bomber"-Issue in AA50 using TripleA

Maybe those interested in a fix (provided it is a TripleA issue - what is not yet proven) should post in

@admiral_nimitz are you still up for a game? G1940 with a bid for Allies?

Play by forum.

@swampfox Never mind, you’re welcome :smiley:

I wasn’t sure where to put this, but it is an unresolved issue.  Could we create a “tip jar” for the creator?  Or swear on our dead horse that we will eventually purchase a physical copy of AnA in order to protect intellectual property rights?  Do I think most of us already have a copy?  Yes.  Multiple editions?  Yes.  I just wish there was some way to express that.

It works in reverse, I think.  New players who might be exposed to triplea first will inevitably buy a physical copy.  These things must have crossed someone else’s mind, no?

The problem is that you need Java runtime in order to execute TripleA on your devices.

Just google

Java+IOS
or
Java+Android

if you want to know more about this.

@Veqryn:

P@nther,
Actually the LHTR Heavy Bombers option only gives +1 to total SBR damage on maps where the xml is configured in a certain way.
In Global 1940, it does NOT give any bonus.

Therefore, it is fully rules compliant.

Ah, good to know, thanks for the update!
How is it in AA50-ww2v3?

I tested it myself and found out that it is wrong in ww2v3 (AA50) regarding SBR.
There “1” is added to the best die.
It should be “take the best die” only.

Wow. I cant believe somebody would be called a noob.

As long as we’re talking battle calc, how about allowing the user to specify OOL?  Sometimes you want that bomber on defense to be taken last and see how much that changes your chances….

Or to hold subs back and not lose them first.  Can be very significant when you have super subs, like I often do.  :-)

Meanwhile, I will continue to rely on my more detailed and versatile calculator, even though it’s designed for AA50.  It still works better for Global than the TripleA calc, even though it does carriers different and doesn’t have tacs
