forceboat (you have to be over water, though)

With all the talk about it, it's funny I never tried it :)

You get an invisible ship with an attack of 40. You have to go click Comma (Idle military units) to select it ;).

I'd prefer some 'fun-cool-units-cheats' Like those in AoE where you get a baby on a trycicle :)

These are 'false-playing' cheat codes ... no phun

I hope those cheats do not work in multiplayer against other players because I hate cheaters. Except for when we agree to use mods. Then Im ok with it. If you think about it the cheats make perfect sense. the force because its SW so you put force + a statement or resouce like say carbon. I wonder why we've never thought of this before. Oh I just remember in the multi-player screen how you can set cheats on or off. So don't respond to that! Go to www.battlegroundsuk.com), and joing the forums. There growing every day!

Yes, you can play either way if you want.

Yeah, but every now and then you just get this wicked urge to go bonanza with resources or secret units and just have a ruthless slaughter fest. Then the urge passes and you play normal for a while...

I'm not sure...I think it might be Rick McCullum...I'll check on that...
No It isn't him...I guess it might be the secret Gaber unit...I guess it is why Gaber told us to enter it into the game:D

Funny story about this.

I don't care if you believe me or not, but I was pretty much responsible for the cheat. At the TF.N Games forums, Jedi Bib and I came up with the concept of a "FORCE BOAT". Although our definition of it is different (and slightly perverted ;)), we decided to ask Gaber (who frequents the TF.N board like this one) if there would be a force boat in GBG.

He responded to Jedi Bib's question, "Yes, there are sea battles. Every civ has brand new naval units, including Anti-Air Destroyers.
The Gungans and others have subs. But we have no Force Boats."

With fake astonishment, we asked him (ok, more like harassed ;)) at the boards to include it in the final game. So, we hadn't spoken to him by the time the second chat rolled around. I decided to give it another shot.

OnlyOneCanoli: stop answering silly goose questions, and speak of the all-mighty FORCE BOAT

Garry Gaber: Type in "Forceboat" at the chat screen, and see what happens. You have to be over water though!

We couldn't believe it! So we went and tried it out. It gives you an invisible "force boat" with shields and pretty sweet fire power. With Gaber's mug shot too. :eek:

Pic of FORCE BOAT (http://www.geocities.com/onlyonecanoli42/FBOAT.jpg). Right click and save target as if it doesn't work out correctly.

Anyway, I doubt that any of you care, but I figured I'd just let you know that I'm famous, but nobody knows it. ;)

No, they removed it before i believe. I tried it in the original game and it didn't work for some reason, so they must have removed it.
