    That has to be the #1 exploit.

      I second that. It is about the only reason I stay at this job.

            Hmmm...
            Is there any way to increase your 'poly time?
            Maybe live closer to work?
            Or better yet, rent an office and camp in there.

              How do you do multiple airdrops? Sounds interesting.
              With an airdroppable unit you can right-click on a tile and choose "airdrop here." This operation doesn't properly set the airdrop flag if the target is a base, so you can "daisy chain" your way across your empire's bases.

                Hmm....considering I had my truck stolen while I was at work a few weeks back, I'm not sure I'd want to live here.

                  Actually you don't have to land in a base. You can just right click repeatedly all over the map, no limits. Of course you still lose the 20% health per drop, but I think it maxs out once you reach 10% health.

                    Yeah, you can just keep bouncing around the map like an idiot until you've mapped any continent within 8 spaces of another continent.

                      Thanks for the Air Drop info. Now there's one I have to try.

                        The airdrop exploit is fixed in SMAX with the latest patches, perhaps even earlier.

                        But he touched it too much!

                            Um. No it's not (Paradrop Bug). I just tried on SMAX v2 w/ XP patch.

                                So we can bounce around like an idiot all over the map?
                                Cool. I'll remember not to do that.
