Intelligence goes live

The clique! Good Gracious!

brings back memories

Ah, good old paranoia. Almost reminds me of Classic, except we had activity go with that paranoid-filled OOC war between players, so it was actually kind of fun...

Is there any particular format you want us to follow when posting in the forum?

 

[Polesia]

Would it be possible for alliances to have joint threads to co-ordinate intelligence action?

 

[Holy Frankish Empire]

Love this thing

 

[Rheinbund]

I still don't quite understand it. Do I just have to start a thread and post where my armed forces are, where my spies are and so on?

And to be very honest, I don't like the idea of somebody suddenly popping up and claiming that he has killed my King in the intelligence thread.

I just nuked you all.

In all serious, I have to agree with Eiffelland, it does seem a trifle unclear as to what is and is not possible with the intelligence agency thread. I've recieved some bizarre and insignificant intel from my modest efforts so far, but I wonder wether it would indeed be fair on the players if i did recieve intelligence that might not even be true- after all, how many players have really provided detailed breakdowns of their armed forces, or the sympathies of their population, or determined to an arbiter's satisfaction this or that crucial strategic resource?

 

[Taley]

yeah i realy have no idea what to actually post in there.

Gathering intel is one thing, but how will the counter-intelligence be handled, will that be at the discretion of the mod to determine how good a country's agencies are in preventing secrets from getting out?

 

[Great Engellex]

Well, I asked about this, as counter-espionage is what I will be focusing on, and it looks like it will work in the same way.

I haven't started a thread yet, but I imagine it is somewhat character roleplay with the Intel Mods giving you goodies if you work hard enough?

 

[Great Engellex]

And to be very honest, I don't like the idea of somebody suddenly popping up and claiming that he has killed my King in the intelligence thread.

I also had the same impression, which is why I will at least will still form an outline with the player concerned if I ever wanted to try to do so.
