TripleA is FANTASTIC. who cares about graphics?
The tripleA is just as intense and functional as the board game, if not more- because you don’t waist time setting it up etc.
I can get a 7-9 round game in under 5 hours easily.

Oh yeah, sorry for the explanation of this game being so poor. It is a very very interesting game though.
I could write a novel on it.

Anyway: PS. Those two Battleships died in the following round. =D

thank you both. I’m glad the game designer agrees with my original thinking. Though my opponent HATES that.

very nice link! I searched 3 forums and couldn’t find an answer. THANK YOU BOTH

Now, in regards to Germany’s situation on this game: They are in DEEP trouble. The allies can afford to attack japan a lot right now. Germany is gonna be done for. We will resume this game next week I suspect. So I’ll let everyone know what happens.
What Germany did wrong was they sent their navy on a suicide mission or two. First of all, we bid for Allies, so he got 10, and I lost 10. Germany got two extra tanks AND we agreed to give him a sub off the coast of africa. (I read that is a nice balance somewhere). well he invaded Brazil, and Germany was looking fine- until like I said, he sent his divided navy on two missions of doom. He attacked a stronger US navy, and a stronger UK navy. Meanwhile they weren’t doing much serious damage to Russia because UK managed to block and annoy the north, while Russia was buying tanks and striking back- hey… it’s only round 4 or 5 though.
Biggest mistake Germany made recently: He bought two Battleships and stuck them under Norway. Bad Bad Bad. That cost him like 50 IPC, and without tanks to push the land war against Russia, you look at Europe now and it’s in dire straights. +_+
Or at least I hope so, because I’m allies and I worked hard to get where I’m at. =P

It’s round 4… with KJF strategy.

And yes I am fully aware of the odds of the UK defeat.
In fact I was not fully intending on attacking it. heh

My friend and opponent was thinking that the new US navy units would be attacking in Japan’s turn. sigh
I had to go to the book and prove that wrong. Also, he thinks that the rule of being allowed to place new navy units in a sea zone occupied by the enemy, being too specific for the game. He thinks it shouldn’t be allowed.

In any case, I just wanted to get someone else’s opinion on it to show for. I’m actually glad that we have these forums so we can get unbias clear-thinkers to respond to some iffy questions to help out.

In this game that’s happening… Germany isn’t going so hot. Japan totally depleted itself out early by trying to take a heavily reinfoced India (with IC) in round 1… as well as Pearl harbor, and Buriatia. crazy.

@ncscswitch:

Since UK can;t bring US forces along on their attack ,then the “new” US forces don;t participate in the attack either.

So the US is not involved? correct?

here’s a picture! =DD

Scenario:
America buys a new Industrial Complex in Kwangtung, later on they mobilize a small navy force in that sea zone.
Japan attacks America’s mobilized navy units and wipe them out.

Next round, America mobilizes yet MORE navy units in the Kwangtung sea zone. (this is allowed)
Keep in mind that Japan’s navy units are Still In The Same Sea Zone.
They didn’t move, so it’s mixed with US and Jap navy.

Then next round UK’s navy is coming from below, (sz 59), and they attack Japan’s navy, which also has American navy units in the same sea zone. (as I already covered)
Do the American navy units defend or attack? Are they even involved in the UK vs JAP combat at all?

This is a very good question me and my friend cannot find an answer to. Please help us! =)
