At the last second is always best

A very good idea!

Dull thuds from above, and the sound of dirt and sand spilling from the roof above your head with each blast.

flight path projection? just enable orders, and you can see them well enough.

Strangelove is based on a number of people, one of which was cold war strategist, and RAND Corp member, Herman Kahn. He wrote "On Escalation" and "On Thermonuclear War", which, while dense, are excellent examples of game theory and war speculation. He covers all kinds of scenario...

"The animals come in two by two, HURRAH HURRAH" If I remember correctly. Actually, it'd be cool to somehow play the 'We'll meet again' as you enter into say, DEFCON 1 or the victory timer. "When Johnny comes marching home" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/When_Johnny_Comes_Marching_...

Yes

I put the music from dr strangelove on instead.. the one that plays during the scenes with the bomber crew.

Ah screw it, I got the music one too

I get the same problem trying to put it at 64 channels. I have a soundblaster audigy 2 ZS soundcard, and a dell motherboard of some type.

Good idea with the nocry one. Those sounds were a bit grating after a while. I'll keep the music though.. I enjoy that.

This is likely... they don't make games like in the old days, where one copy could spawn multiple lan clients.

There's an amusing thread on this already: http://forums.introversion.co.uk/defcon ... 7837#17837

I would suspect that you'd be ok if you were behind a router, as the authentication servers would only see one IP address. Not sure on it though. Either way, it may be easier to have one legitimate version, and have the others as demo versions... they're not too crippled.

I would imagine that it would have to be something in the order of hundreds of different IP's, from different geographic locations. Otherwise you get these two problems:

1) Dynamic IP addresses break your system
2) Taking the machine/install to different locations breaks your system
