[Suicide Junkie]

1) I believe that an Intel I defends against any intel project.

3) Oh, definitely. I had 4 projects going, and they kept bottoming out cause I was MEE. I had managed to get them up to 25% each, and decided to go offence. The offence took away from my defence spending, and the projects dropped to zero. The enemy PPP'd one of my main Intel planets the same turn, and I had to drop 300 electron tanks there to get it back.

That seems like a good plan to start with, but when you get enemy offence happening, you may have trouble keeping individual projects from bottoming out. Micromanagement will do it, but the gain might not be worth it. It is easier just to add more projects, with repeat build on.
