Default Re: New Scenario: GEV Escort

"6.0 DESIGN NOTES
This scenario is more of a challenge for both players because of the high-mobility but fragile GEVs. They are not just a few extra attack points to be thrown away or traded for Howitzers! The OGRE may turn out to be, not the main threat, but the cape of the matador, with the GEVs ready to deliver the killing stroke.
The defender should be left wondering whether his extra forces are enough compensation for the attacker's GEVs, while the attacker bites his nails as he tries to preserve his highly breakable hovercraft until an opening presents itself."

...otherwise called "popcorn" by OGREs. Nice and crunchy. They pop when you cook 'em! The dauntless GEV Aces however, piloting advanced and far less crunchy craft, have names for enemy OGREs that are just as derogatory.

"AI Paperweights".

"Voodo Dolls".

...and:

OGREs are so ugly and stupid, when they look in the mirror, they not only scare themselves, they think they are looking at another OGRE.

OGRE AI stands for "Anemic Intelligence", or more accurately, "Anti-Intelligence", a more sophisticated way of just saying "Stupid".

How many OGREs does it take to screw in a light bulb? Ask a Vulcan...

...and so the list goes on...
