Why not do both?

I think you should add "17.11 Intel Operations"

Perhaps you could take Ed's (and other's)paragraphs and number them under 17.11.

I think I can take a crack at writing an Intel one in this thread or my existing Strategy Articles thread. I'm not the expert on Intel, but I can get some good tips down. Hope to have some free time tonight.

Will do at next opportunity.

I just didn't want to be redundant, or do the same work twice, or have the same stuff in two different places or, worse yet, be redundant.

Newbie FAQ and Strategy Articles server different roles. The FAQ is for basic info, and learning how to play the game. The SA is for advanced tips and such. So, it isn't really redundant...

So what about failure? What determines whether I'm detected/undetected? If you succeed well, can't you also frame another empire? How does that work, and can I frame another for the attempt even if I fail?
