Yep, I'm sure. I have seen it more than once. Confirmed cases.

Re: Exploit question
 

How did you confirm the cases? The reason I ask is because in my situation I even had an independent 3rd party check my turn and the person accusing me still to this day does not believe me, and he is a pretty experienced player.

There are several scenarios that can play out that look exactly like "Fire at enemy commanders".

Re: Exploit question
 

Played admitted it in one case, game admin admitted it another time, after looking at turn.

Re: Exploit question
 

I think we need an experienced 3rd party to confirm whether or not Zeldor is making up the confirmation :]

Re: Exploit question
 

The only way I would trust the 3rd party to confirm it is if a 4th party was an eye witness!

Re: Exploit question
 

I have a 3rd in partying, if that helps.

What? It's better than a pass.

Re: Exploit question
 

3rd in partying? You refuse to allow troops to attend your parties except in time of war as proscribed by law?

Re: Exploit question
 

I only consider something an exploit only if it is game-breaking in some way. This game is full of undocumented features, so flipping out if someone takes advantage of one in game is silly even if the person maintaining the bug list considers it a bug (I mean, how many things on that list end up being WAD when the designers chime in).

Considering that the designers of the game have mentioned that they are OK with it, and its a not terribly effective tactic, it gets a pass in my book. I mean, the reason I play a computer game and not a tabletop game is so I don't have to argue rules with people. That means accepting all the little quirks in the game.

Re: Exploit question
 

OK, saying it is "game breaking" was a touch over the top.

I would put it the category of "game ruining". Especially if someone exploited it with any success against me in an individual game. Which hasn't happened ...

But like a lot of things in MP games if something isn't explicitly ruled out before the game starts you, as a player, shouldn't really complain that much.

I have a feeling this discussion could be heading down Mists of Deception Boulevard soon.

If you look to your left, you will see all the people who wanted the spell changed, the most vocal are missing because they quit playing shortly after the patch they lobbied for.
