I seem to remember reading (maybe in an old strategy guide for this game) that promotions for a soldier were based on their bravery score - the higher the bravery, the more likely that character...

Yeah, the thing one has to remember with games from this age is that computers didn't have any sort of graphical power to really fascinate players. Instead, they had to rely on original concepts and...

Some random clarifications and extra insight into the game:

Another feature that makes this game stand the test of time is its speed factoring. you can use keyboard numbers 1-8 to speed up or slow down how quickly time passes, if you want to 'fast forward'...

In that case, instead of trying to bomb the capital, I suppose you'll have to try to invade every city you conquer, and don't beat ANY with bombings. That's the only way I can see you beat the...

Do you mean 'stuck' as in, everything dies and it's pretty much impossible to conquer the planet without bombarding everything to death and therefore risking a crash?

Let's see...mission 15...so...

It also sounds to me like you're having trouble getting good construction drops. Let me dialogue on that a bit (I haven't shut up yet, why stop now? :P).
