Tiger II

[Hugmenot]

In my case, I cheat. I play a lot of PG, but almost never do I play a scenario to completion. I usually pull the plug somewhere in the middle depending on my mood. I call a game when I feel that one side has substantially fulfilled its victory requirements, lost too much momentum (or units), or if I simply tire of the scenario. I like the variety that PG provides, but prolonged play of a game in which the outcome isn't really in doubt can become tedious.

I also cheat but in the other direction; I often start over a scenario 1, 2, or 3 times before completing it. The idea is for me to get a feel for the scenario before I play it more seriously.

I guess you cannot take the serious out of a competitive chess player.
