T.N.T. Part V

[Keygen]

Vit, have you used marc13@otenet.gr to send me emails?
That's my email address for the past 2 months.

The last turn I have is 157 from Blackice to you.
Resend turn to DeVil and to me in the above address.

[vitolg]

turn 157 re-sent to DeVil and Keygen

[blackice]

DeVil can you explain to the good people here how you expelled one of my units with none of your units in the area? I sure would like to learn that as we all would I bet. Personally know no way of expelling a unit without using a unit to do it. Maybe you can let us in on the trick?

[DeVil]

Why don't you concider any air or space unit capable of expelling units? I think, in this case I used space fighter to do it. But I thought it is a common practice.

[vitolg]

That's good, but what about the turn? Whom are we awaiting?

[Keygen]

The turn is in progress Vit.

166 was sent to Pete today directly from Nuke

Yes I heard that, the reason I do not consider it is because air units, space included do not have the expel command. So much for common practice....Only certain land and sea units have that ability. Would you like to try again same question how did you expel a unit with no units capable of doing it in the area...

Game is on hold till we figure it out so lets try again.

[DeVil]

Expell command? Try Shift+e.

[vitolg]

Blackice, he's right. It works that way.

[TheBirdMan]

It's actually works.

This is obviously a "hidden feature" more. Think we have to make a list, where we decides which are allowed and which are not allowed.

A spacefighter is not intended to expel units. Therefore this one belongs to those, that no-one should use (just my opinion).

[blackice]

Yes it does but as Bird stated we do not use bugs in Pbem that is well known. There is a list but it is obvious "hidden commands" would be one of them.

Devil you know that...

It would appear we have to replay a few turns....

Just for more clairification WE DO NOT USE BUGS IN PBEM...Any other bugs or slic commands, advancing turns, hidden commands etc are not used here.....have you used any more Devil?

[TheBirdMan]

BlackIce - I'll try to find the old-old thread regarding this topic. The "new"players might need to have a close look at that, before we are too harsh to them.

Maybe we should make a gaming-agreement: Do you have read the thread "xxxxxx" and do you understand and agree to etc......?!

(choice: Yes - No).

[Keygen]

I should had post the 2nd version of PBEM rules long ago on March when 90% had been completed.
There is a line which forbits any utilization of a bug that might affect the directly or indirectly other players.

Could someone post a full list of these commands so I can add them in my list?

[blackice]

No biggy just remember if in the unit icons of commands you do not see "expel" for instance then obviously the unit can not expel. If you use a command to make a unit do something it was not intended to do it is a bug (cheat).

From the Canadian front news:

"Multitude of nuclear weapons" that is the report from command central.

Today it was announced Canada has an extensive nuclear arsenal. The numbers are believed to be extensive but the picture shows a bleak trend in the world today.

Our allies have started posturing says the commander in chief of the combined armed forces Ruben Honeyed.
We have seen an increase in hostilities rather than trade or commerce. We have taken it upon ourselves to arm with a massive deterrent of mass destructive weapons. Each city now has it's own nuclear deterrent Ruben states. We hope our allies are standing strong with us but we have seen shifts of policies that are disturbing. Our space fleet has been enhanced; our sea fairing units have also been strengthened. Land units have now been put on alert and the reserves called up.

We will stop at no length to ensure our nations right to survive. In today's climate that also means dooms day Ruben said. Should all nukes be launched the world as we know it will cease to exist.
With such distructive power we hope our allies and newfound friends will be more responsive to diplomatic endeavors. We have sent messages of peace to all our friends and ally and await their responses.

Ruben also stated "we would strike first as a deterrent". That has been the policy and no change has been ordered said Ruben. When asked if we would use the nuclear arsenals on first strikes Ruben answer was clear and matter of fact. "We built these weapons for defense but let me make it clear they are there to be used by the Central Command for any purpose the president orders."

In other news:

Several projects are in the works some say these world-leading accomplishments will set the world on its side. In a few weeks the development of a non- polluting space station will be seen.

On the home front:

We as with the rest of the world have taken on the task of cleaning the pollution left behind from the small wars that plagued the world so many years back. It was reported by the health ministry that in fact all clean up should commence with in two years.

The stock markets are soaring today. All stocks have done nothing but gain for some time now. The economic forecast is bright and on par with expectations. The technology sectors are particularly strong as is the manufacturing sectors.
