I disagree to call it cheating, but that guide should be tagged or noted as "ion cannon this lvl/dmg/cd used", so people who have it will be able to use it efficiently, why those who don't will work around it or neglect it.

Since some people say its cheating I'm one of those people but I would say more specifically the Ion cannon makes things artificially easier than it ought to be, not exactly cheating. The people who mainly benefits from it are the ones with fat wallets, paying real money just to make a game easier. Some people who do have a high level ion cannon didn't use any real money, but they had earned the medals the hard way instead. Well... those people already had a good team of powerful generals, maxed techs, and built all of the other wonders. This would be merely a cherry on the top of the ice cream, so for them, the benefit is lesser than the benefit is for the paying players. Still, it's sorta "legal cheating" rather than outright cheating, if you want to think of it that way. Now the pratical application of the information in guides is that if the writer had used the ion cannon, then you have to adjust the estimated amount of turns upward to compensate for the lack of ion cannon. But let say, if the ion cannon is being used for a very specific tactic in a guide, then a nuke would generally do the same job as the ion cannon (not all of the situations tho). |

That is why I made no ion/generals guides(not for 1975) |

Since im a heavy user of the ion cannon myself, there is an easier alternative than to say that the Ion Cannon is cheating, you can basically say that you didn't use it. I make guides for WC3 and yes I have the Ion Cannon but I never use it in my guides.
