Is this why I am losing against you, nothingness ? lol

remember to take notes after every move , it would be better for the notes to be atop the game board forr easy access. i do notes as follows. Captured pieces: 1,1,2,2,4,4,S,etc.... i will also do as follows -3, tis means that i attacked with a 3 and beat teh ? piece! or ill type +2 that means he attacked me with a piece greater than or equal to my 2. the notes are to be used instead of the captured pieces. Its part of the thinking process not to know what has been captured.

I aggree. Pieces captured should be shown on the sides.

Yes, it seems to do that sometimes...i'm not quite sure why or when... :-)

<I think that the piece attacked should change to show the minimum value
e.g if I attack and lose with a 2 I should see >2 on the piece.

:)

The "less than" character at the beginning was added by the editor ???

We need taken/defeated pieces at the side. I can never remember what value piece I used for an attack. Half the time I can't even remember the last move I made!

No, otherwise I could use my 1's and 2's as spies by attacking pieces to see there value. The best you know is that the piece you attacked was higher than you or a bomb.

After I attack an opponent's piece and lose, shouldn't I know the rank of that piece? Shouldn't the "?" be relplaced by the piece's actual value?

Regardless you should be able to attack any piece. That is not the same as taking it. After your move you will find out the result of the attacks.

I think you are right as well. I have not gotten that far in my game, but it is not right according to the rules :oD

No, I think you're right, thats what the rules say. I didn't take the piece, but the computer would have allowed it.

could be a bug....the rules page says a spy can only take another spy or sapper......'course i could be wrong :)

I seem to be able to take a number 1 soldier with a spy - thats not right is it?

never mind... I just got the answer to my question :)
(they can't)

So when it says "In standard Espionage, a player makes a move with two different pieces per turn" does it mean that the same piece can't be moved twice in the same turn?
