[Discuss] Breaking Through the Front Lines

[Timothy Collett]

A couple of times recently, I've been involved in a battle, as  
attackers, where my side has had modestly superior numbers, and  
seemed to be winning--until some of the infantry started breaking  
through the front lines, ending up surrounded by enemy units, and  
quickly finished off.

The breaking through part is relatively new code; I think it first  
appeared a few months ago.  Has anyone else had this problem?  Or,  
better yet, figured out a way to stop it from happening?  I'm not  
trying to whine here--I like the feature's realism, and I think it  
presents real possibilities; I'm just trying to see if, together, the  
community can understand the feature and how to use it to advantage,  
rather than being crippled by it.

even built with some of your parts, and what do you think about  
funding us? Or we' ll give it to you. We just want to do it. Pay our  
salary, we'll come work for you.' And they said, 'No.' So then we  
went to Hewlett-Packard, and they said, 'Hey, we don't need you. You  
haven't got through college yet.'"
