Title: Any Axis & Allies fans wanting to play a TripleA mail/forum game?
Post by: Ché Biko on 04 Aug 2014, 07:48
I like the strategic Axis & Allies board game. But it's hard to find some friends who can find the time and desire to play a game, at the same time.

Fortunatly, we have TripleA (http://triplea.sourceforge.net/mywiki), an application which allows for a-synchronous play. No longer do you and your friends need to set aside an afternoon (or longer) to play a game of A&A. You can now play by e-mail, one turn at a time, when it suits you, and nobody will be rushing you to hurry up when it's your turn (well, not a lot, anyway).

So...do any of you feel like playing a game?
Currently I'm a big fan of the WWII v3 1941 scenario with national objectives.

Oh man, my old gaming buddies and I burned a few dozen weekends with Axis & Allies when we were in high school. Tough game to finish, but very satisfying while things are rolling. There's probably much to the scenarios and strategy that I failed to pick up on, so I think a review is in order.

Definitely checking out TripleA after work today.

You should maybe ask Ava, I seem to remember she was quite into that.
