Sid had a reputation. He played Red Barron against an Air Force Pilot and beat the Pilot's high score. He did so by memorizing the algorithms of the enemy air ships so he could avoid their shots and shoot them down. http://kotaku.com/the-father-of-civilization-584568276 http://kotaku.com/the-father-of-civilization-584568276 He made airplane simulators after that and war simulators.
