Re: Trading commanders, exploit or not?
Zeldor, I understand very well the intention (or so I believe) of the discussion. What I do not understand is that people should be aware of what others *think* are cheating. Say the game admin writes that "Breaking other people's units without actually fighting them, and breaking the economy" are cheating -> that would be a masive can of worms, wouldn't it? I bet there are in any MP game dozens of battles where one side doesn't make a single casualty before they are broken, and apparently the losers should be thus considered cheaters if such a home-rule was in effect?
Also, I wonder who decided it is a stupid and un-fun strategy to use sneakers or remote summoning spells, and why the devs even *should* consider changing those? Orders of Bogus&Co I understand, and I would go as far as claim that any charmed/seduced commanders should lose their scripted orders and that would be nice to fixed in a patch. However, in this thread the discussion hasn't been about Bogus orders, but about perfectly valid tactics all of the sudden being declared "grey area" and even cheating or exploiting. *That* is simply something I have a very hard time to stomach.
Now if you set up a game where no sneakers and remote summons are allowed, then that would be ok to me. But to somehow try to forcefeed to the community the opinions of a couple people as the absolute moral truth is a bit little too thick, isn't it?
