Fog of war

[RightDeve]

GILA:

It seems you're really pissed off though my posts in no-way intended to flame someone. I have to clear things here:

1. YOU SAY I'M CALLING OTHERS "NOOB". FINE, YOU'LL HAVE TO CHECK THE THICK LINE SEPARATING MY POSTS AND MY SIGNATURE. THAT IS A SIGNATURE. AND THAT THING IS INTENDED TO BE JUST A SIGNATURE. I don't know why you can call me "Noob-you sayer". But if that signature really pissed you off, I will surely remove that.

2. I'M SUPERIOR BECAUSE I'M CHEATING: IN WHAT TERMS DID I CHEAT? IF IT'S THE "UNIT RENAMING" THAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT, I PERSONALLY DON'T THINK IT AS CHEATING. I FOLLOW THAT TRICK DIRECTLY FROM THE GAME GUIDE. SO IF YOU WANT TO COMPLAIN, WHY DON'T YOU JUST DIRECTLY SAY THAT TO THE GAME GUIDE MAKER? BESIDES, MY OPPONENTS FOR PBEM NEVER ACCUSED ME OF CHEATING THROUGH THAT TRICK, now why would you?
IF THAT'S GAMEY, WELL, IT'S A GAME, NO MORE SAYING. I personally don't THINK it as gamey. For me, it do some kinda Fog of War. AND THAT'S MY OPINION. MOREOVER, IN THE WHOLE COURSE OF MY ENTIRE PBEM GAME I NEVER EVER CHEATED A SINGLE PERSON.

3. I'M TELLING OTHERS TO PLAY UNFAIR: REMEMBER, THIS PLACE IS FOR OTHER'S OPINION. RECALLED THE FOURTH POST IN THIS THREAD BY WDLL, "NO SCREAMING FOR OTHER'S OPINION". And again, I personally don't think it as unfair. AND THAT'S MY OPINION.

4. "JUST MY HUMBLE OPINION". THAT TELLS ALOT ABOUT YOU! IF THIS IS HUMBLE OPINION, WHAT ABOUT YOUR "UN-HUMBLE" OPINIONS?

5. "TRICKS ARE FOR KIDS". SURE, I PERSONALLY THINK I'M NOT OLD ENOUGH TO BE CALLED A "MAN". I'M 17 YEARS OLD AND AM ENJOYING PLAYING TRICKS (As far as it's not cheating).


PS: Honestly, I want to send this message via PM to you as I INITIALLY think it's not appropriate to be sent in such a public.
BUT, regarding your PUBLIC-FLAMING post against me, it is obviously fair, 1 - 1, for me.
AND REMEMBER, YOU ARE THE ONE WHO FLAMED ME FIRST, ACCUSING ME OF CHEATING, IS THAT AN HONORABLE WAY OF WRITING POST? SURELY NOT!


AND I HOPE THIS MESSAGE REACH YOU SOON BEFORE IT BE DELETED BY SOMEONE CALLED MODERATOR.

Oyeah, one last thing, THIS IS MY FIRST TIME IN THIS FORUM BEING OFFENDED AND FLAMED SO OBVIOUSLY. I THINK YOU SHOULD GO OFF THIS SITE IF YOU DON'T MIND
YOU KNOW, HOW MUCH PISSED I AM RIGHT NOW!


Cheers, and best regard to our dearly friend GILA.

I am kinda disagree with the opinion that the shooting guy (if not spotted) isn't going to pop his name up on the replay screen.
Try it yourself guys. You'll see the NAME of the VEHICLE shooting.
ONE obvious thing too: if you Z fire your opponent, even when you're not yet spotted, the replay screen will give the name of that "Z" firing unit.

Guess that shows how much attention I pay to the message windows then. Tis more fun watching the on screen action as my toy soldiers go about there buisness. Might keep an eye out for penetration effects if think its doubtful at that range but thats more when I am firing.

C of Red pretty much summed it up as its a game so trys to balance starting forces bluff & counter bluff to gain area superiority play a big part, getting it wrong can have dire consequences.
Its this more than anything that is the diffrence between playing the AI & PBEM, a good player varies what he does & if he can get you wondering what hes up to you suddenly find yourself watching a replay & seeing 90% of your Tank Co become scrap. its one of those moments that changes how you play forever, less haste more recon & dont always do the obvious suddenly becomes your new strategy.

This is very, very true. A cautious commander is a living commander. There are of course exptions, but for the most part, fortune favors the brave, but longevity favors the wary.

Yes gauging when to throw caution to the wind is also an integral part, shift your attack & throw off guard or capitalise (hopefuly) on an unexpected opportunity. All this though is much easier if your recon has done its job. They might not get caught up in the fight much but boy do they keep your loses acceptable. Thinking about it if include recon in force to a large portion of my force is doing this most of the time only stopping when its time to light the fuse.
A decisive strike is then possible which is both safer & far more satisfying if you pull it off.
