Programmed Opponent. The set of instructions that a scenario designer has to provide to one or both computer players in order for it/them (Elmer) to be able to put up a decent fight. In short, if the opponent hasn't been programmed, then it won't know how to fight.

Alaz....

Try this http://forums.gamesquad.com/forumdisplay.php?f=224 

and this one for the Toaw forums as a whole http://forums.gamesquad.com/forumdisplay.php?f=10

GS redid the forums and many of the links need to be re-established....

Sorry 'bout that, eh?

I'd be interested as well.

I have only played single player - and probably have some bad habits because of that.

My work schedule is crazy busy sometimes thogh, so I'd need a mentor that can deal with short pauses when I won't be able to continue a game.
