Nifty little tip...

[The Coil]

I mentioned it (oh so long ago) purely as a "by the way, this thing, be it a feature, a bug, an exploit, whatever, does in fact exist" kind of thing. Whether you choose to ignore it or agree with your opponent to ignore it or whatever is up to you. I brought it up to level the playing field, because some people know about it, some people don't, and that seems patently unfair.

I always go into a game with the idea that anything that the game permits is fair unless we agree not to do it before hand. So if you play me, bring your multinational force, snake 'em up the flank, look for blank terrain windows, and lie to me about your tactics in your emails. But expect to be hit by a bunch of preplotted conscript arty as well...

Personally, when someone starts talking about all guns must be towed and armor restrictions and "only use historical OOBs" and stuff, I look elsewhere. For me, the beauty of a computer game is letting the game handle the rules so I can just play. I realize many reasonable people disagree, but that's the beauty of living in a free society. Assuming you do.
