~Why Cheat ?
Greetings dudes,
I thought I would write a few lines for Cheet Sheets seeing as
I have every copy and have only managed to give a contribution
twice before, bit of a poor show really any way.
The topic if you have not already guessed is cheating and the
amount of cheating going on for such very small and quite easy
games. Please read on.
Warcraft II
To start I must say that I would never ever play this sort of game
because as a general rule I hate them and find them grossly annoying.
I had a hacked copy of an installed game that allowed me to play the
first four levels as an Orc and then a human and found itto be very
enjoyable. Then I loaned the full game and managed to getto the last
level in three days, I must add at this point that I have
purchased the game as well now, so I can play all them extra
scenarios from cheet sheets, keep 'em coming dudes. Anyway not bad
for someone who is very sad at any type of game. Oh before I forget
I finished Duke Nukem 3D in two and a half days as well, now that is
sad.
But I am loosing the point here, the thing is why cheat? I have
already admitted that I am crap at most games, yet I have managed
to finish Duke, and get to the last level of Warcraft II in less
than a week so why cheat? no point at all, if I had cheated I
wouldn't have even got a day out of both of them.
Back to Warcraft...
The thing with Warcraft II is, it is very easy if you have a plan.
Take this scenario from a level for example. Quite a bit of the way
through the game was a level where I was building up my gold, lumber
and buildings but kept getting attacked right near the start of that
scenario, same applied if I had too many.....let's call them soldiers,
but if I had about say half a dozen, `you must find the balance' no
one came to attack me and I could build everything I needed in peace,
again just a matter of balance.
In another scenario there were three lots of enemies, attacking the
red ones, `as they showed on the map' to the left was impossible,
blues at the top also impossible, but the yellows to the right easy
peasy, so you kill, and pillage their supplies, this leave you nicely
equipped to fight the next lot. Again if you attack the wrong enemies
you will get wiped out so it was off to the top of the map wipe out
the blues, dropping back down to finish off the reds on the bottom
left easily, but almost impossible in an other order.
One of the hardest levels had them pink beserker dudes running around,
the ones that look like they have bags of blood in their hands, they
can wipe out thirty footmen in seconds just with three or four men.
But, with three ballisters moved in a line in front of each other,
eight archers in two groups of four on either side of them, you can
run in the area, just one man mind, with said enemies, wait until
they chase you and run outside and blam they get wiped out and you
don't even get a scratch, just repeat until all them little fat
pink basts' are dead. Blah Blah easy peasy.
I would like to hear from any one who has finished the last level
without cheating I really can't see how to do this, to me it
looks impossible and made to be that way. If you can do it drop me
a line or give us a ring I would be very interested to know how you
did it?
Bye for now. (STEVE BLEASE)
