Here’s another Triplea question… How do you find players and start a game in the Triplea “lobby”?  Thanks.

i’m a pro-axis player myself. i’ve always been interested in WWII, and especially in germany. so i always enjoy it more

mind you, i’ve played germany so often that my mates always try to make me play a different nation. mainly an allied one!  :lol:

You gotta love LL!  😉

I don’t love LL . . .

No love.  (oo a tennis pun . . .)  :lol:

Go here.  There’s the regular players, the League players, and the Tournament players.

The trick is NOT to play the Americans.

What you have to play is the Allies, or a member of the Allies.

Trying to do things without your team = loss.

Generally, I go like - Build infantry plus other units in E. US, march them to W. US on next turn, transport to London with transport “A” on next turn, transport to Africa or Europe with transport “B” next turn.  It takes a long time to set up a transport chain, but once it’s going as described, it’s a big pain.  Especially when you take transport “A” off of shuttle duty and unite it with the rest of the fleet.  Five UK transports followed by six US transports is quite a threat.

If you want to go KJF, you build a lotta navy.

Remember, you don’t need to know how to play the AMERICANS.  You need to know how to play the ALLIES.  It doesn’t matter if you build an Atlantic fleet OR a Pacific fleet if you have the UK doing nothing but building infantry on London, or if you have Moscow buildling nothing but bombers.

visit house rules section and find our team… we are remaping the DNA of axis and allies

muhahahaha

this tactic works well against the group i play with… they go after germany with a vengance… they retreat everything from all the corners of world for the most part and pull to the atlantic just to put a wrench in the works for germany… they buy nothing without germany in mind… its 100 % devotion… it took 5 turns last game before i felt i could even make a real run at russia because i had to hold strong while japan got going…

Edit: holding strong meant staying at 40 or above… i fell to 37 one turn but rebounded back after a little regrouping…

Russia - Build Infantry - Defend until relieved
