Re: Time for a poll. (The subject is abuse)
Quickmoving slow troops, sallying into a neighborhood province, reinforcing
through a besieging army, etc.. are ways of abusing unsufficient error checking
on the client, when the composition of a moving commander's army changes.
You send a commander somewhere where he can legally go. Then some sequences of
adding troops and changing his orders will result in impossible commands being
executed without a snag.
It gets much, much worse if instead of juggling troops you just edit the orders
in the .2h file. As far as I am concerned, morally, there is absolutely no
difference in the two approaches... After all, if the developers did not want
us to hack the .2h file, they would have kept the order validation on the server,
efficiency be damned. Right? Right?
