Glest Guide MDC: Advanced Magic and Tech TutorialsThat's not necessarily cheating, as the foes get the same units you do (as a note, I strongly recommend Notepad++ over ANY other text editor), though I should also mention that if you do those "cheats" you will be unable to play multiplayer. If you really must do said cheats, I recommend copying the magitech folder, renaming that new copy to whatever you wish, and then open it and rename the file "magitech.xml" to the same name as you named the new magitech folder (with the *.xml suffix).
And of course, MG and GAE both have "easy" CPUs.
For "true" cheats, GAE has a built in Lua console. For example, typing "~" to open the console gives you the ability to type a command to create a unit, give resources, etc... For example "createUnit('archer',0,startLocation(0))" would create you an archer (provided you are player 0) at your home base. Please see
this page for more explaination on Lua in Glest.
