  1. <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by New Age Santa:

    I thought the victory flags were to represent important tactical positions. Small flags being smaller points to take and not as important and the large flags for the areas that are of the utmost importance....<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

    Survey says..... bzzzzt. Smaller flags are lighter than larger flags, and thus more prone to become mobile.

  2. You are all a bunch sick bastages (but not farging bastages). Now I know why I had to stop reading this BBS for awhile.

    ...Although Joe Shaw is the only one who's really hit upon the crux of the matter. A simple look at your screen will make it PAINFULLY OBVIOUS... those flags are WAY too large and WAY too heavy to move about. ESPECIALLY the major objective flags. You'd have to rope 5-6 heavy tanks together to even think about it (although making Tank Rafts were a common tactic (did you really think they supplied Lenningrad over ICE?), this tactic is beyond the scope of CM. I believe it was supposed to be incorporated in the game at one point (look at some of the skins, they have ROPE for tying up Tank Rafts on the sides of the tanks), you'd have to ask Charles why it was really dumped as it's absence really detracts from the game (and creates topics like this one).

  3. [Correct me if I'm wrong, but...] As I understand it (?) the new UBB version generates the html code on the fly for each reader, making each page, and it's not-yet generated links, "new" to the reader's browser each time the reader loads the main pages. The color of the already-linked is a function of your browser, but if all the links are _going_ to be brand new _after_ you click on them each time, it probably confuses everybody's browser. (i.e. you may've read a thread before, but it's going to be completely "new" if you try to read it again).

  4. The AI does cheat. I caught it cheating (had a fifth Ace up its' sleeve). I had to take it out back and teach it a lesson. When I was breaking its' fingers & kneecaps, it suddenly just died (see! it even cheated me out of my just revenge!). So I had to get another game. I think the word has gotten out, as I haven't noticed any AI's trying to cheat around here anymore!

    So as you can see, everybody above is right, depending on if their AI knew of or was related to my original AI, and got the word about what happens to CM AI cheaters.
