Actually, it's probably better to just run multiple Cointel 2 projects.

Another possibility is to start with just 1 Counter-Intel project (highest level you can); keep just that 1 project going until it's 2-3 turns from "completing". Then add a new counter-intel project, make sure it's at the top of the list, and turn OFF the "Divide Points Evenly". All your points will go into the new project, and the almost-completed project will be sitting there with lots of counter-intel points just waiting for incoming intelligence attempts. After building up a couple of counter-intel projects, I frequently put a cheap intel project or two of my own at the front of the list so I can whittle away the enemy's counter-intel; in a major intel war, you just have to make sure SOME of your points still go into counter-intel.

Oh yeah - make sure "Repeat Projects" is ALWAYS on for the Intel/Counter-intel projects...
