sigh.. i should not bite on this, but.. lots of strategies get posted for this game. using retrofits is about as much cheating as using minefields that the AI cant use well. its about as much cheating as using ECM that is bugged and the AI cant use. its about as bad as applying the mine laying patch to allow minelayers to drop more than one per turn. its as bad as using tactical combat and taking advantage of stratagies that the AI cant use. its almost as bad as the people that like to use transports to deploy sats as a portable weapon pod against the AI early in the game, when it obviously does not work against humans quite as well.
hopefully people can exercise some restraint and good judgement when playing multiplayer games, and if not, hopefully people are bright enough to play with people they get along with.
there are lots of ideas bouncing around and this board is full of different ways to play the game. not everybody likes every way, but there is plenty for everyone to choose from and enhance their own playstyle. thanks for censoring an open forum, the internet is all about one person telling everyone else what is safe to read and think and do, glad you could jump in and help us there.
