Here is another "opionion" for you. ;)

Egging your script so it doesn't shoot at Cherokee's is cowardly and
deceitful, especially since you withheld that knowlege.  Are there any other
surprises in store for users of your script?  I've said it before, you are
supposed to be a sysop, and run games fairly, yet your actions  demonstrate
the "win at any cost" mentality, and a serious inability to distinguish
between right and wrong, also known as fair play...

You're welcome.

is having a little chinese this evening....girl so sweet she may make a
monogamous man out of me.. :)
