Save and reload
little question,
is save and reload in Pbem games cheating or not.
I think it is, because you can increase your chances of winning a battle.
Example
A 1A1V noinvet militia attacking another militia on grasslands has a 50% chance of winning the battle.
But if you save and reload this chance is 100%.
The only solution I see, is to increase the hitpoints for decreasing randomness and possible sav'n try cheats.

But if you save and reload this chance is 100%.
It's 75% if you are willing to play the turn once, 87.5% of you are willing to play the turn twice, 93.75% if you are willing to play the turn thrice, etc.

for clarification, I dont think thats what was being discussed before. At least in my eyes I was debating the side of replaying attacts on a city turn after turn untill you had enough units to crack it, or some other objective. I think replaying battle by battle or tactically is not good, but I dont mind strategic relaoding.
