Arms Race! [Quenched]

[Txflier]

I'm a little confused. This is my first time playing this map. So the nuclear strike is when you hold launch code, president, and missile? and what exactly is the deal with the missile launch resetting to 15 if it is occupied at the start of your turn. how would you ever hold it to attack then? I'm sure I'll see soon, but don't wanna botch up my game. thanks anyone.

You don't need to hold the top of the missile for the bonus.

ok so basically you just have to kill the 15 if you want to bombard the other territory

I'm not getting my +50 bonus(2 times yo). That's pretty much it I suppose.

[MrBenn]

It's a known bug that occurs when a player is eliminated by a neutral killer:

2009-12-24 01:25:21 - neutral player eliminated DBandit70 from the game

[fumandomuerte]

But why does the nutral killer give deferred troops? Could that be fixed? That game was lost for me... It was very unfair to my contrinctant.

Hi please refer to the topic
viewtopic.php?f=4&t=106494

I am in a situation where only 2 missile launch land
i found that there is some info not state in the map
the problem i found is i want into a possible but rare situations
opposing missle launch could not bomard each other

On the map there is this statement missile launch could bomard any foreign territory and opposing missle.
If anyone could explain why the missle launch is not consider as a foreign territory or opposing missle

If it is possible that we put a statement that missle launch could not bomard each other

this would make the game more clear
Thanks

hi i am sure the mods in c and a are getting feed up with complaints of truce breaking backstabbing intentionally throwing of the game for this board. i think i have came up with a solution to this would it be possible to make a code for the board to say that you cann't attack the silo until all uraniums and bunkers are held . i dont know if this would be possible but think it would help with the following.

1) would stop putting the weakest of the 3 players in a bad situation having to make a choice of who he wants to win the game. not matter what anybody says this is what is actually happening.

2)would stop all the complaints coming in from the players that decide that the weaker player is either backstabbing or throwing games

3)would stop giving the mods a headache about this board where i feel that if all of this carries on they are just going to delete the board and none of us arms race fans want this to happen.

thank you for taking time to read this and hope i get decient responses to this thread

[AAFitz]

well, for one, this is a map issue, not a mod issue, and its been played so many times that any changes...especially this one. are beyond unlikely.

I also think you overestimate the drama that others perceive on this board. A few complaints are expected, and it isnt the map thats causing it...its the people making them.

Most importantly though, the idea is riddled with problems, and simply wont solve any problems short of making never ending arms race games, which people will then complain about.

[Bones2484]

I don't believe that is possible anyways, even if it is a bad idea.

[AndyDufresne]

Merged with the map topic.

[BuckeyeBomber]

So I don't know if this has been discussed yet or not, but here goes...
When someone deadbeats after going through the launch, it remains whatever they had left up in the missile launch and never resets until someone else kills that 1.

[natty dread]

yes, that's how killer neutrals work. they only reset when the player holding it starts his turn.
