Don't knock yourself Cows : these days one needs a degree in Defcon to beat some of the players and you have come a looong way.

This was very first game with new mod made by mvpe and have to sing "what a wonderfull world....."
Tested new method of blind nuking "ECHO" (name copyrighted by senator who gave me idea few months ago) and it works fine. Never said to mvpe how much i love him, so i do it now.

As much as I like to read my name, I cant be held responsible for every crap you are coming up with.
I guess its:

I've been thinking about this... I think it is possible to 'triangulate' silo locations using the hit event. Imagine a fighter flying along and a silo shooting at it. The silo has a certain shot frequency and the hit event tells you how often a shot impacts the fighter. But... the hit frequency on the fighter depends on the relative motion of the fighter and the silo. For any given hit frequency there are two possible vectors (one at an angle to the left, one to the right) that the source of the shots could be on.
It's just like the Doppler effect for a passing ambulance - the motion of the fighter changes the frequency of the shot impacts (the shots are equivalent to the peaks of the sounds waves... except that in this example the ambulance is parked and you are driving past it).
Perhaps one algorithm would be that when a fighter detects silo shot frequency hits it turns until the frequency is maximised at a known frequency. Then the fighter would know that it is 'flying down the line' of shots and the silo lies on extension of its movement vector. Do this from two different angles and X marks the spot...
Lots of practical difficulties in this of course: in many cases you'll be getting hits from multiple silos, a fighter might not last more than a couple of hits, and silos often switch targets away from fighters. But it is possible in principle.
Of course if this becomes a standard method the silos could start spoofing their targets and rhythms to throw the fighters frequency detection off
[Edit] Hmmm. Do friendly nukes give hit events? If so you could in principle map the enemy silo location from the first half of the barrage, and take out the silos with the second...
Notice that last line. Somewhere in translation Doppler effect must have become Echo. But I doubt Mrmot is using the Doppler effect. More likely he is using...hm..something else.
It was impressive anyway.
