The spirit of the game...

[Ratzki]

I think that because it is a game, there is nothing that is gamey. Send the 50mm mortar ahead, to scout and cause some havok, well, I as the other player should be able to handle that. I have marched a whole platoon of ammo-less mortars that were out of LOS to give the other player something to think about. I know that in real-life this would not happen but this is not real life. Now with all the little things that can be gamey, all one can really do is find players that play the same as yourself and avoid the ones that look for offhand advantages within the game. I try to discuss things with my opponenet beforehand to try to eliminate things that I do not like. I have a small text file that I send that outlines things that I will not play and those that I like. The other guy has the chance to read it and agree or not, up to him, I don't ever feel that thyere are not enough opponents for me to choose from. That being said, there are a few things that I find gamey, but I have just learnt to deal with them and after the game decide if I will play another one with this same guy.
