Modifying the game To have that unfair advantage " in this case game code" And Making your own models Are both modifying the game.
And Your Point was Modifying the game.
My point Is This Would Also Be Considered Modifying the game.
And i Dident Counter Your Statement.

No, my statement was that you don't own a game, you own a license to a game, which makes you subject to the restrictions that the owner of the game (the game publisher) lays out for you. Disallowing third party modification was simply an example of one of the possible restrictions that can be used.
Anyway, just because you are able to modify the game to a degree the publisher allows you to doesn't' mean that there isn't restrictions on what you can modify.
That Blizzard allows you to make your own content somehow counters my statement because...?
An advantage in getting achievements is still an advantage.
the achievements are pointless and useless.
does getting achievements give you a bonus to resource gathering? nope, bonus to health? nope....bonus to production of units and buildings? nope.
Making them pointless and stupid to ban people for cheating to get, maybe if they made the achievements give bonuses in the game, like production speed boost that only the player gets, so if you cheated with a trainer to get all the achievements, it would indeed give you an unfair advantage when playing against other players.
But they don't, making them useless to get really, only the players that like to gloat about getting them strives to get the achievements and the only time i would strive to get the achievements is if they gave bonuses to ingame abilities, like 25% bonus to health or 25% resource gathering bonus.
But they do not, so i don't see the point in getting them.
