Save and reload

[Thoddy]

little question,
is save and reload in Pbem games cheating or not.

I think it is, because you can increase your chances of winning a battle.
Example
A 1A1V noinvet militia attacking another militia on grasslands has a 50% chance of winning the battle.
But if you save and reload this chance is 100%.

The only solution I see, is to increase the hitpoints for decreasing randomness and possible sav'n try cheats.

didn't we just go through this a week ago?

Yes we did but this typr of cheating was accepted by the group.

But if you save and reload this chance is 100%.

It's 75% if you are willing to play the turn once, 87.5% of you are willing to play the turn twice, 93.75% if you are willing to play the turn thrice, etc.

for clarification, I dont think thats what was being discussed before. At least in my eyes I was debating the side of replaying attacts on a city turn after turn untill you had enough units to crack it, or some other objective. I think replaying battle by battle or tactically is not good, but I dont mind strategic relaoding.

BTW, is "Load Game" supposed to be greyed out in my File menu? It always is when I am playing mutliplayer.

you have to exit and then start from the main menu, its microprose telling you that you shouldn't cheat, but we won't stop you from cheating
