I got spies into both of them. One war factory showed he was building a ranger and the other said a medium tank. Is this a fault or does the computer once again cheat. If a human plays and has 2 war factories, it simply enables him to build tanks faster, but not two different ones at the same time. If you infiltrate a building and when you click on it it doesn't show anything, then i think this just means he isn't building anything etc,,, Bye! -- Jonathan Bartlett The Red Alert File Center http://www.bart-fam.demon.co.uk/
