It is a script for firefox that makes the maps on the site "clickable" meaning that to deploy, you right click on the territory rather than have to select it from the drop down menus: same for attacks, forts, etc. There are some nice hotkeys for refreshing, beginning turn and ending.

There is BOB which counts territories and troop numbers for lazy people. I think it can also divide.

Other than that, everything else is just fun statistics and stuff and does not help in game.

Well, call it lazy if you like, but I have seen people in the Map Foundry, not under game pressure, who cannot count the number of territories on a map. Having something tell me exactly how many troops each player will get on their next turn is very handy.

Another useful feature of BOB is its ability to highlight troop circles with special markers when you hover your mouse over various locations on the game page. Hover over the name of a player, and all his/her territories are marked on the map, with an indication of which are safe (not bordering an enemy) or unsafe. Hover over a troop circle, and all the adjacent territories are highlighted: those that can attack or be attacked, bombard or be bombarded. Hover over the name of a bonus zone (continent) and all the component territories are highlighted.

once you start using them, the price keeps going up with every new membership! they are becoming too pricey for me and i am going to have to take the route of dealing with the fixed dice now...

says the kid that can't spell "because", "their", "they're" and the super difficult "lose"... not my fault if you can't operate an abacus!! and my superior knowledge of ancient chinese tools does not make me stupid, but thanks for the flame...-0

wow Kyle.. calm down man.. owenshooter.. just because you do not agree with the script does not make it cheating.. unless of course your a 4 year old without a brain??? :O.. well man we all have our opinions.. but one thing is for sure.. if that was cheating.. then CC mods would have gotten rid of it a long time ago.. anybody can use them and if you dont.. well thats your own fault.. i like using either..just dont go calling it cheat scripts man,cause they aint cheat scripts..they are tools to help slower people to play better :D
