Have you ever seen my TSK 20 in 4.5 minutes video and wondered how I did it?

• TAS - "Tool Assisted Speedrun" applies to KaM as well. In particular, we can actually slow down the game's clock during gameplay to allow us to multitask (build a town AND go and fight simultaneously, for example).

• Besides sheer entertainment, this allows us to see (in theory) how a VERY SMART AI (on our behalf) would fight against our computer AI opponents.

• If any one of us completes an entire campaign (to earn the Any% privilege https://www.speedrun.com/kam/thread/mwumz ) , we can lower the theoretical win-time for that campaign. Think of it, imagine if a VERY SMART computer can complete the TSK campaign in under an hour! Is that possible? Well, that's what the TSK (Remake)(TAS) category is all about!

• Sounds too good to be true for KaM speedrun submissions? We have a TAS category for missions just for this! But you may NOT (and it's easy to tell when you do) submit such runs under a Remake category that doesn't have "(TAS)" attached to the end of the category name.

KaM TAS runs should be considered different than (must be distinguished from) "normal" runs, because it's not humanly possible to do multiple commands in one game clock tick when playing at x1 (normal) pace. But when slowing down the game time speed, it is!

• You can clearly see that there is lag in the movements of soldiers in the 7m57s video versus continuous flow in the 4m28s video.

• In short, yes we ALLOW you to do this (slowing down the game's speed during gameplay and then restoring it to watch the replay after gameplay) for screen-recording replays, BUT only for the TAS run type. We can easily tell if you do use KaM Remake TAS and attempt to submit it for a non-TAS category. We will especially look at submissions which are potential WR breakers for subtle details!

• You will be disqualified for future runs (not to mention that the run you submitted will also of course be rejected), if you attempt to submit a TAS in a non-TAS category.

• If you do this by mistake (which should only happen once if AT ALL!), you may plead your case, and we will submit your run under the proper category, but please be fair to others! Don't attempt to submit a TAS run on a human (non-TAS) leaderboard!

• All in all, KaM Remake TAS is a whole other gaming experience that you have not experienced before which will give you a deeper understanding of how KaM's AI works and can help you to submit better non-TAS runs (from the knowledge that you gain from having experience playing at the "microscopic level")!

Have fun (and be honest)!
