MEPBM: "Spotting" From: jaede@acsu.buffalo.edu Date: Sat, 09 Nov 1996 00:00:00 +0000 Fellow ME players: I have in the past few weeks seen a message I have never seen before from agents on guard assignment. Once while guarding a pop center (2950) and once while guarding a character (1650) I got a message which read: [Guard] spotted [enemy agent name] while performing his/her guarding. The skill rank boost was 2 in one case and 3 in the other, so I can't tell whether this represented thwarting the opposing agent or not, though it seems likely I did not get credit for stopping the enemy agents. Does anyone know what this "spotted" message means? Did I just spot random characters? Did I thwart their missions? Did I get skill credit? were the enemy agents trying for the guarded targets? I had always been used to seeing the message "He/she wounded/captured [name] and thwarted his/her theft/assassination/kidnapping mission." Is this spotting business a new twist? Thanks, Mark Referenced By Up
