Default Re: Most useful Intelligence Projects

I used Crew Insurrection for the first time and came to like it. I got the ships back to my territory since I already had cloaked ships with solar collectors in the target empire's systems and basically made a fleet to bring them back.

I was moderately surprised at the results. I ended up with a few of their most advanced dreadnoughts. Got about 5 levels of High Energy Discharge weapons after I got enough back for analysis.

What was I doing with cloaked ships in their systems? Oh, a large satellite, a long-range scanner III, Hyper-optics III and cloaking device III makes a nice picket.

Are nebula systems supposed to keep ships from being detected? I strung one system with a few sats equipped as above and they found ships quite easily. Oh well. Maybe it's some types of storms that do that.

eyes and wave like this..." *waggle* "...can you and your
associates arrange that for me, Mr. Morden?"
