How?

Go to Macintosh HD (Hard Disk), go to the appllications folder, open the utilities folder, then launch Terminal. Type cd(space) then drag your ThinkTanks FOLDER to the terminal window. Press Return. Type:
./ThinkTanks.app/Contents/MacOS/ThinkTanks OSX -dedicated -mission game/data/missions/TT1_1.mis -Game S

This will launch TT1_1.mis (Medulla Mesa by default), as a scrum game. There ya go! A dedicated server on a Mac! Here's a screenshot of what it should look like:

NOTE: When you launch a dedicated server, you cannot launch the ThinkTanks application by opening the application, as it will already be open, hosting the dedicated server. To go into your own dedicated server, you need to CONTROL-Click on your TT application, select "Show Package Contents", go into "Contents" and "MacOS" Then open up "ThinkTanks OSX". This will launch a new terminal window and TT will start up as it normally would, and you will be able to see your server in the list of online servers. IMPORTANT! DO NOT close either one of the terminal windows! One of them will shut down the dedicated server, the other will terminate (Quit) the application.
Hope this helps!
