• Her Madge

  I think it's fine Steve to let Stellar Forces run. Up to UK players whether to take their turn or not.

• Her Madge

  In honour of Her Madge, Stellar Forces will remain running on Monday, as I'm sure it's what she would have wanted,
  
  (I feel like I should send out an email about this, since it seems like everyone else and his dog has).

  Sounds great apart from being dessicated! :)

• Summertime Lull

  Thanks, I did, but I pushed it a bit hard at the end. I played volleyball in 33deg heat and didn't drink enough water (but too many cocktails). I've only just recovered from the severe dehydration!

  Glad you got a tan Steve!

• Summertime Lull

  Looks like SF is experiencing its usual summertime lull, quiet forums and not many games. Everyone is out enjoying the summer! I've just got back from a week in Mallorca, that's why I was a bit slow in taking turns in the last few days.

• Death Grenades

  I see! Thanks Steve. Think I was just unlucky in the moments I had and got explosions more rarely. I don't know why I had an idea they exploded 100% of times at least if caught in the ground zero of the explosion, like for example the death grenade.

• Death Grenades

  I've just discovered that in the Android , the incendiary grenades *do* have a 50% chance of exploding just like other grenade types. For some reason I missed them out in the PC client. (Does anyone use the PC client?)

• Death Grenades

  Anhhh ok! I definitely noticied that nerve grenades always explode.. incendiary never do, and the "regular" just sometimes. Would be logical that they all explode when affected by a death grenade being carried by the soldier? I don't know if makes sense or other players agree.

• Death Grenades

  There's a 50% chance that any type of grenade that is caught in an explosion, will also explode. Except for Incendiary grenades, which I've just noticed aren't covered.

• Death Grenades

  @Steve, returning to this topic, I'm trying to understand what types of "other" grenades carried by a soldier, are triggered, after his death grenade explodes. Apparently some are effected by an explosion, while others stay unaltered.

• Remove Hit & Run missions?

  And I've just made that change. The escape hatches on all H&R missions are now on the opposite side of the map to where the player started.

• Remove Hit & Run missions?

  That's a really good idea.

• Remove Hit & Run missions?

  The hit and run escape where sometimes one person has all his troops escaped already and just sits there with heavy armour and rocket launcher then promptly escapes back. If they had to escape past you then they would have to armour and weapon all their people there would be much more action

• Remove Hit & Run missions?

  I'm tempted to remove the Hit&Run missions from the game. They give an advantage to the player that sits and camps; there's no advantage to exploring, but obviously if both players camp, the mission will just end in a draw and is a waste of time. Any objections?
