cheats are gone- good or bad thing?

[Sir Beane]

It's a shame Toggle_fow is gone. And I always enjoyed being able to spawn myself a few elephants for my own amusement. It isn't too bad though.

Damn no toggle fow means you cant admire the map in all its glory, as for the other commands i never used them.

mixed blessing

Well, no pre-battle speeches means that you dont have to make all your generals crazy anymore :P

The map cheat was the only one I ever used. It was amusing sometimes to see the moves the comp makes. Either that or being able to see every faction's (including unplayable ones and rebels) starting position without doing tons of starting new games.

Med2 had some very good ones . Empire doesn't and I miss them already.

Hmm..I miss the console. I usually ended up taking "loans" early-game(don't worry, I gave like 10% interest yearly..or grouped it all up until I owed like 100k and my treasury could afford that). But I definetely like keeping toggle_fow on for a while, and then after years of my own campaigning, I can go just see how other factions progressed(who crushed who, etc.) It's really pretty cool, but I'm sure some modder will figure out a way
