So, how fast CAN you complete a short campaign?

Playing using exploits would be so utterly boring and pointless to me I would wind up turning the game off in under 5 minutes.

That's why some of us don't do it - It's not playing the game, it's beating the coding with an exploit.

To each their own, but I find it to be a total, total waste of time.

I just can't find these "feats" impressive, when the player cheated the game royally to accomplish them. I mean, I don't see that as a total war feat - I see it as a circumvention feat. It's just...not very interesting to me.
