Default Re: The Galactic Council needs YOU!

Monster Sensors see through any cloak in the game, including Monster Cloaks. While glassing the homeworlds shouldn't be possible, I don't like the idea of those sectors becoming safe havens for everyone who can get to them. For human-played monsters, adding a meaningless cloaking ability to every monster hull, like psychic level 1 without any accompanying EM active or EM passive, would allow the player to choose whether to initiate combat in those sectors. Unfortunately the AI will never cloak bases, so AI controlled monsters either need an agreement by the players to not try glassing monster homeworlds or they need a better sector cloak.
