TripleA engine - Known rules-related bugs/issues

@JPatrickRemiger since you’re new to triplea, might as well start out with the latest https://www.axisandallies.org/forums/topic/39809/new-triplea-map-uhd-world-war-ii-global?page=1

can only DL with 2.5. Otherwise gotta go direct from git.

@fmerwinrommel

It looks like the fix discussed in

https://www.axisandallies.org/forums/topic/37967/triplea-posting-to-forum-currently-does-not-work

will resolve your issue, too.

@CrazyIvan Also for playing online you might want to check out our TripleA forum, especially the stickies there: https://www.axisandallies.org/forums/category/28/triplea-support

@Gargantua:

Good work Hobbes on getting a working V5/V6 going.  It’s nice to see such a quick transition from game release, to TripleA readiness!

Just don’t pay too much attention to the graphic look… I couldn’t wait anymore until my ordered Spring 1942 2nd Ed arrives at my local store (takes quite a while usually) ;)

Unstickied for now, as content and links are outdated.
A possible update is pending.

We also have this article covering almost the same content:

This is copy paste post from the TripleA main site, in case new players are not updated on how the “new” TripleA works:

Here is a list of places where you can get popular maps for TripleA (version 1.2 and later):

All you have to do is start up TripleA 1.2.X.X (Yes that means run the .exe or .sh) and click on the “Download Maps” button. A dialog box will open where you can add links to “Map Repositories” (sites that host maps.) Here’s are a few to add:

http://sites.google.com/site/veqryn/documents/TripleA_Maps.xml
http://sites.google.com/site/tripleaerniebommel/home/mods/TripleA_Quality_Mods_EB.xml

Just take the second link (the long http one that ends in .xml), and copy it.  Then open up TripleA, click on Download maps, then PASTE it into the blank box there, then click “list games”.  (clicking the links to the .xml below will do nothing for you).  Here is a Slideshow showing how to do it.

I would also like to provide links to a browser accessible battle calculator, and if you are in need of strategy please check out the Forums of AxisandAllies.org.  TripleA also has a wiki site.

If you are new to War Games, I highly suggest you go and read a Rules Book for a certain popular war game that happens to be very generic in manner.  Slightly more advanced rules may be more complex, but are more rewarding too (though they may require some help).

If you have a map or a link you would like me to include, pm me and i’ll add it to the list.
Thx
Veqryn

PS: if you have made a map for tripleA 1.2.1.0 or later, it works and runs, and you would like me to host it, please pm/email me or post below.  I will upload it to my site and include it in my .xml for downloading through tripleA.
This list is edited, so check back often.

@captainjack:

Does anyone know if a triplea version of RISK has been made?
Thanks.

Probably not, but there is a RISK version available for free for Linux, so I guess there must be a version for windows also, just do a google search.

did you download the source code or did you download the installed?
go download the installer,
double click it, it will install the game
