Re: Is password guessing cheating?

That was war, not game. Besides, they didn't use any "god mode" that was not part of THIS world and they certainly couldn't try giving orders to the 21st Panzers, "run the turn" in their command post and get people killed, reload their "save game" and try again.  Your opponents' passwords are definitely out of bounds and any knowledge of it before the game ends is unfair.
