To be honest I only found out recently that you could turn the radar off after faffing with the function keys (i think it's F8 or F9) t'other day so I'll start doing it in my next campaign. In fact I found that you can even turn off the Unit cards so you'd need line of sight to give orders by clicking on the units you could see. That would be hardcore, infact you'd probably need to be pretty l33t to fight battles then. Sorry.

I think that most TW players don't change the inteface settings to make the game harder for them, like gen cam and turning off the radar, but use house rules instead, whereas I try to do a combination.

For example I roleplay generals where if they are more than 3 chiv then I never pursue routers, always release prisoners and always occupy, but if they're more than 3 dread then I do the reverse.

The best part of this game is when you are in the middle of a battle, don't know what the hell is going on and the plan you had at the beginning has all gone to and you've got to somehow turn it all around.

It's the feeling of not quite being in control that I like.

Now if there was some way that the strategic AI could really hurt you then that would make the game even better, though the LTC AI has caned me a few times!
