Well, I am playing hotshot and he has killed me a couple times. I am trying to sit back and use all my guided missiles to hit his weak spot, before trying to use the invis and hit him with the earth shakers. It is certainly a challenge.

If that's the case, I will never open it. When I played with a P200, on win95, those gm moved slow enough that I could accurately steer them. Now, on a PIII 1000 and win xp, it is impossible to steer them well enough to do that. What about the grates between the two rings? There are two earthshakers...
