Counter-Intel depends on having points STORED in a CI project.

If the CI project is completed, you lose all those defense points.

So, put your highest level CI project first for a turn or two, then move it to the back of the queue before it is finished. (Don't use "divide points evenly")

As the enemies attack, the stored points will decrease. When you are out of points in CI projects, then they will start to succeed in their attacks.
