well its a GP and all GP's require LOS to use. all i can think off is keep all enemy units away from your base.
but thats about as good as a counter strat as "destroy all enemy units" is a normal strat...
ps. welcome

Maybe Ritalin can help you .
Each GP can only be used once per game (up to 4 GPs available per game), so it won't be such a problem...

Just put yourself in a coma for 4 months, and wake up, then go get the game...thats what I plan to do.

He's not new.
You could move units so the Tornado GP doesn't do much.

If you build an Egyptian Monument it has a radius where no GP can be used.

IT was in a showcase.
I'm counting on the Sept. 27 2002 Release Date. I think it makes the most sence. Some people say Sept. Some say Oct. Sept. 27 is right inbetween the two months.

I read that also. So a good Egyptian player would want to build important buildings near their monuments, or vise versa. I wonder how large the radius of protection will be?

It was in a German Preview...the same preview that (I think) also said that the neamean lion brings life to trees...not too reliable if i do say so myself...
