TripleA Client (Free Game)

TripleA is a turn based strategy game. TripleA comes with multiple games and over 100 more games can be downloaded from the user community. Supports single player vs AI, hot-seat, Play by Email, and a hosted online lobby.

TripleA is a free online turn-based strategy game and board game.

We support a large number of games and game types on a large number of maps. We have a free online lobby, though users can play single player too. Recreate World War 2 with the Axis pushing through to Moscow and Japan devouring the Pacific, or recreate Napoleon's march across Europe, or Rome defeating the Carthaginian Empire, or even Sauron conquering Middle Earth, or Zombies taking over America! To keep the file size small, only 4 games and maps come with the download, but over 60 more user-created maps and over 100 user-created games can be downloaded from inside the TripleA program. We already have a large number of players online, and our game has been downloaded off of Sourceforge.net over 450,000 times. If you have ever played a game where you push little plastic or virtual pieces around, roll dice, conquer the lands of your enemy, and produce new pieces, then you will be able jump right into TripleA!

An example map and game that comes included with TripleA is "Big World: 1942"

A scenario loosely based on the year 1942 in World War 2. In Europe, Germany has Leningrad besieged, stands at the gates of Moscow, and is on the verge of defeat at Stalingrad. In the Pacific, Japan has expanded explosively but faces a possible turning point at Midway. Germany and Japan fight as the Axis pitted against the Allies of Russia, the United Kingdom, China, and the United States of America. Players will take control of these nations, using their armies, navies, and air forces to battle out who will control the world. Player have such units as Infantry, Artillery, Tanks, Fighters, Bombers, Transport ships, Submarines, Destroyers, Cruisers, Battleships, Aircraft Carriers, Anti-Aircraft Guns, and Factories. All of these units have special functions and features, and all attack and defend at differing values (represented by rolling a die for each unit and getting a certain number or less). Territories have different values, both strategically and production value, which can be used to produce more units to use the next turn. Players must work with their team mates, developing strategies and producing units to reach their ultimate goal of victory over the other side.

User Created Content:

- TripleA contains the ability to download maps. Just click the "Download Maps" button, and put in the link of where the maps are coming from. This will display a list of all the maps hosted by that website. These links can be found on our forum and in our online lobby. (We do not provide the links ourselves since the maps are user created and hosted by such users.)

- Though TripleA only comes with four maps and games installed, there are over 60 user created maps and over 100 user created games for these maps. Many of these games, like "New World Order”, have generated quite a following.

- Simple and easy to create your own maps and games for.

- Rules can vary by map, depending on what the map creator wants.

Very Basic 'How to Play':

- Though some games have special rules enforced, most games follow some of these basic guidelines.

- 1. Players start their turn by choosing what they will produce. They spend the money they gathered during their last turn on new units or even technology. These units will be put on the board at the end of the player's turn.

- 2. Then that Player does a "combat move", which means moving units to all the places they wish to attack this turn. Simply click on a unit and move your mouse to the territory you wish to attack, and then click again. You can select a path for a unit to take by holding down 'ctrl' and clicking on all the territories on the way to the final territory it will be attacking.

- 3. Then everyone resolves all the combat battles. This involves rolling dice for the attacking units and the defending units too. For example, a Tank might attack at a "2" meaning that when you roll the dice you need a "2" or less for him to "hit" the enemy. If the tank hits the enemy, then the other player chooses one of his units to die, and the battle continues. After each round of dice, the attack chooses to retreat or press on until he has defeated all enemy units in that territory.

- 4. After this, the Player may move any units that have no yet moved as a "non-combat" move, and any air units return to friendly territory to land.

- 5. When the player has completed all of this, then he or she may place the units that they have purchased at the beginning of their turn. Then the engine counts out the value of the territories they control and gives them that much money. The next nation then begins their turn.
