Notice on the tactic for future reference
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

Any tactic that crosses the in-game border will not be tolerated. To understand the in-game border, think yourself having fun playing the game and in the other end think of you as an Emperor who runs his empire.

In the specific tactic, the Emperor would laugh and rejoice over non meaningful tactics while the player would get fustrated.
