- Sorry about that, no coffee .. no brain .. ughhh
-
- Here we go.
-
- There are 16 different screens and 32 different levels. The
- second set of 16 levels ( 17 -32 ) use the first 16 screens maps but they
- are much more difficult due to the different initial pieces . You can
- switch sides and play the computers sides ala the easter egg. I believe you
- can activate it again and watch computer play computer. Cute! There is
- also a code for a sound check as well.

- Has anyone noticed the stupid mistakes that the computer apponent
- makes. Like how it will capture a factory even though you can emmidiately
- recapture it. Ever notice how when it (the computer apponent) unloads a
- factory it always places the first piece in the southwest position then
- moves clockwise around the grid? The computer factorys seem to have their
- pieces loaded in special order to facilitate this clockwise unloading as
- well.
-
- What's everyones favorite screen. I looking for a favorite 2 player
- screen. I've found one but I was wondering what others think. I think once
- you master beating the computer you must move on to two player games. The
- thing is that it's hard to find a completely even screen (or a completly
- even human apponent?? as you've played this thing for months :) ). You don'
- t want to play it with one side having the advantage.
