I just downloaded this and I have a few questions:

In this forum, I read alot of 'borgs', 'autopilots' and 'brains' terms. What do they mean?

I was trying to set up a single player game with cumputer tanks, but I see none of them, lol. :S

You have to start a network game first and then open additional winbolo clients and join them to the server... I'm not sure if the built in game starter works currently though.

Thanks, Cola :)

So, Brains are AI players.

Borgs are for player assistance, while a person is AFK, the tank will move by itself.

How to make an alliance?

I was just thinking to myself hmm there's gotta be a FAQ somewhere for that but i couldn't find one. Anyway, select someone from the Players menu, then go to Winbolo > Request New Alliance.

You are correct about brains but only halfway correct about borgs.

Some borgs will auto-do some tasks. For example, auto repair pills or auto farm or auto aim for an LGM kill. However, I don't believe many drive your tank for you automatically. Once the agent becomes autonomous like that, I believe it might be better classifed as a brain.

Shock value does not have much humor if it's expected.

Acro if you have a van carve out some of the carpeting in that damn thing and give it to meh!!!

Sticks: you know you despise TACT you like it when ppl get a lil unf unf pushie squishie with you!

Sgt: Did LucKy teach you how to smoke pot too?

Nemo: Im pretty sure there is an FAQ out there for those type questions. Unless they were on a site that has recently been disposed of.

Cool Fool : erm,...... -Bleh-

Lima: Welcome to winbolo, I sure hope you have alligator skin, cuz this is a stressful game, FUN as all get out, but well complicated also in many ways, (especially if your like Sgt and have been taught by LucKy)

Cola: Might as well log back in as Chewtoy, I even think you played better under that name.
