ORIGINAL: Bavre Regarding the gambit, please refer your opponent to OldCrows post in this thread https://www.matrixgames.com/forums/tm.asp?m=5135446 It explains it all pretty concisely. About the tech selling: As both sides can do it, I don't see it as a cheat or even exploit. There's also at least one rush strategy vs Russia that basically requires turn 1 tech selling of the Entente to effectively counter. I used it once against an opponent who insisted on a "no turn 1 tech selling" house rule [sm=00000613.gif] I must of got triggered [:D]. Probably those two Montengro Gambit tests we did last year haha. Well with the patches, like Pec being made a Alternative Capital for Montenegro, a turn 2 Surrender of Montenegro is not very possible now. I'll retract the lazy eXploit comment. Of course, if the CP player sells all his research chits to try to take Cetinje and close off the France-Serbia convoy early, that probably will hasten the end of Serbia still. Now I am intrigued though. If the Germans sell off all their research chits...what repercussions may this have on them come 1915? The trade off being knocking Serbia out earlier than historical vs lacking behind the Entente (particularly France) with vital research tech? Well here we go again........ [:)] Ahh, remember the fun times when 1 damaged unentrenched Ger corps defeated 9 Russians in one turn... Btw, how's your PTSD [:D] Sorry, couldn't resist [sm=innocent0009.gif] On topic: IIrc even the convoy was patched. If Cetinje goes down it should switch to its backup. You mean Salonika? Does it go up if Greece is still Neutral..like in late 1914? btw..yeah it was a PTSD effect...the one time ever I almost raged quit any thing, game, job, or woman. [sm=00000003.gif]
