Does this mean he's going to join us again

Guys, bad news. My parents and a few friends are coming into town on Friday. I will be unable to play Friday night. Word on this just came down today. I will work tonight to try and find a substitute, and will let you know before bed what I come up with.

Sorry guys.

I think you've lost some of the earlier rules changes in this file, like sea movement?

[Zylka]

Any rules we have with currently active units should have stuck. Why - what seems missing?

[deity]

...the sea movement increase of 3 is one I've noticed that's missing.

It looks like you didn't use the scn rules.txt as your starting point, I suspect. Unless you posted the normal rules.txt instead of your new one? I can't see the changes. Can you spell them out in the thread? It's painstaking to compare two rules.txt files!

[deity]

the tech paradigm is wrong too....

[Zylka]

completely wrong rules.txt.. sory D
here's the real thing

[Ljube]

Are we playing tonight?

So as you might notice, a lot of these units are just frivelous add-ons to ensure against exploits and expand tactical thinking. ie) the Mech. SAM is near useless a unit unless dotted across a warfield that your opponent is murdering you on via mass helicopters. The Mil. Police is a nice, quick modern flag bearer for those far away cities that have near not a chance of seeing heavy combat. Cruise missiles and Stealth Bombers are finally useful - but just barely (considering disposibility of the former and now realistic cost of the latter). Expanding Navy role(s) mean Battleships see less an active part in the full tech stage of the game (on par with real life). Transport is just a graphic thing, as we already have active Ind. transports I didn't want to tamper with

Enjoy
