Covert Ops Centre

[Drogue]

I noticed that we didn't have a place to discuss exploration or intelligence ideas, so as DEI, I thought I'd make one

If anyone has ideas about where we need to explore, exploration or intelligence units we should build, or what to do when we find other factions, please post them here.

I will keep this post updated with the latest exploration and intelligence information, along with matters that need addressing.

Current DEI Issues

The General Intelligence polls have been completed. The results are
1) When at any state other than vendetta, infiltrate only;
2) When at war, allow everything but atrocities (Lemmy: we do have guts, be we also have morals )

In the DPO's High command office centre thread, the general consensus at the moment is for a covert war, not full military warfare. If anyone has anything specific on how they want to wage a covert war, please post it here.

We are getting a new Probe Team and Transport Foil, with the intension on infiltrating the University (that currently has no coastal bases). Is this a good idea?

With DBTS new plan for war against the Morganites, while I'm aware this isn't supported by most, should we be thinking about a covert war yet? If we are, how do you want it to start? As you all know, I am against any such action.

There is still a dusty ol' DEI office to be found here: http://apolyton.net/forums/showthrea...hreadid=63687, but i think the building is condemned now, so a new office would be good

[Drogue]

Ahhh, looked in the Directory and couldn't find that. Cheers.

TKG: Can you put this thread in the Directory under DEI 'Citizen Polls/Discussions'.

Mucho Appriciated.

i think the old one is still in the term III dir, but since it was lemmy's doing (and nobody used it ) i didn't include it in V4.0

Re inflitration - I would be in favour of infiltrating absolutely everyone as fast possible, since it not only allows us valuable information, it also increases the experience of the probe team used. This remains true even after the EG or Planetary Governorship.

No question

[Jhanactus]

Infinltrate everyone we can, as fast as possible. Send out more probe teams to the west, as well.

[Drogue]

OK, I'll set up a poll on possible probe team actions, and have asked for another probe foil to go out west.

[Aaron Blackwell]

Infiltrating all the factions

Nothing to add really in that case.

By the way, there was a probe that was on the verge of infiltrating the hive near labourer's throng.

Is it already done or is it still under way ?

Just a question.

[Drogue]

Its on the way (but to a Leader's Horde, it's closer) and has orders to reach it ASAP and infiltrate.

[Drogue]

New issues added, input needed!

[GeneralTacticus]

How to wage a covert war - Build up a probe aramada, then send them to cause havoc in Hive coastal bases by:

1) Stealing ECs.
2) Stealing Tech/maps.
3) Sabotaging base facilities.
4) Mind Controlling bases when necessary.

In any particular order? Anything you would like me to concentrate on? Personally I'd go techs (if they have any), base facilities then MC or forcefully takeover. Don't really steal Ec much unless they have loads.

[GeneralTacticus]

Your order seems to be about right. Do them in order of convenience.

[Aaron Blackwell]

In order to wreak a 'probe tempest' havoc as General Tacitus properly suggest, I'd like to add a small thing to this.

It could be usefull to mind control one of his bases and uses it as a 'Tête de pont' from where to launch intelligence and military operation right from the hearth of the Yang's territory.

If we don't, the intelligence operation will considerably slowed down and limited to a few cities.

On the other hand, having a base right in the heart of yang territory would require prudence, lot of prudence and will require the sending of a few garrisons that will be able to hold it.

So I am not sure which option is best for us at this time but, yes, do unleash probe havoc on Yang.

That should teach him not to mess with us
