Like the Potters Clay, Over shall I Start! Avatar Enlargement: We've got the solution

Ok Taking the advice from the Great Hoser from The Great White North

I am "Starting" over my marriage to CTP!

Wow..back to "Non-Excluded Daze!"

I am playing SP as CTP shipped..no exclusions

THIS has been a challenge as for the past 4 years or so I have been playing NO Stealth/Special units

But..I am taking my lumps and yes relearning this often challenging aspect

Ok.. I have found the benefits of slavery trade.

Now I am finding my addiction..ugh application of them comes under fire with the Emancipation Proclamation

Should I worry or just let it get built?

I am wondering if the +=Pro of the Slaves offsets the -=Negatives of geting penalized?

I have no advance to learn the "counter-measures" of the Lawyer and Corporate Branchs!

What should I do when one of them attacks me?

~sigh~

Off to the first grade again!

I am doing this so as I may better compete against the PBEM Community!

Off to School!

Peace

Grandpa "Back-2-Basics"-Troll

It's been a long time since I've played CTP1 but I don't remember there being an option for shutting off Stealth/Special units. Did you do this yourself or did someone put it in a mod? A lot of SidFanatics really don't go for stealth units (IMO, they don't appreciate their role in the game) but it would be very nice, when we get a new version of CTP2 going, to allow players the option of playing without them.

I have done this through my meager scenario making abilities, VERY meager!

But most notably, I "exclude" during my millions of Battles waged online against the likes of the following Greats!

(Of which i may have received a "Pity" victory on occasion but never beat anyone!!)

Aero Lusitano
Quebec
Pin
Paul
Blackice
Mr Black
Erni
Filix
Milamber
Nukeboy
Nechaev
DrBibber.a.k.a Dr Seuss,Steven King
Gavrushka
Faded Glory..rest in peace my friend
Swissy
Catete
David42One

Man..so many faces so many whoopings..my black eyes swollen shut..but so many wonderful hours of gameplay!!

Peace

Grandpa Troll...a.k.a. Patton,Red October,Wolfpack and DrDanger along with a few other nicnames on my part!

We could take a PBEM game Troll with standard challenge settings - but just for fun.

With the right to open each other turn, I might give you a hint or two how to do the dirty parts of this game or answer your questions "why did I do that?!"

I can promise you at least one turn a day.

You can also play without stealth units easily by just setting up a LAN game then excluding those units.

Yeah thats what I usually do!

But, I am attempting to "relaearn" the game by playing SANS stealth exclusions!

At least for PBEM sake that is

Looking forward to learning more as i go!
