Ok... i have some "trick" and would like to hear your opinion
if this is considered cheating or not... I have been a victim
of this in a current game...

So... In all games players drop out or are killed, but remain
alive, as they still have ships or some bad planets.
So it is possible to transfer ships to them.

This can be used in 2 forms:
1.) I attack another player's planet and want to smart-bomb
his pop away, which takes a long time. So i transfer some
smart-bombers to "dead" players, which bomb that world, too.
This can have a major impact on the bombing speed, especially
with smart bombs... Ok, the fleet is gone and you dont get
it back. But thats worth it if you get a fully built up
planet in 1-2 turns...

2.) You are attacked by someone on a world with a starbase
and no fleet. You can give some ships to other players and
alter the starting position on the battlefield, and so
his bombers are in range of the missles on your station,
and before he kills the base you shoot down his expensive
b52s and he cant harm your planet... you just lose the
station, and until he gets new bombers, he can do really
nothing...

So tranfer of ships to "dead" players can be used to get
some advantage...

Well.... is this cheating???
