New CI bug with v1.41 ?

[Baron Munchausen]

There's still a bug in 1.41 that's been there from the beginning. The limit of 12 projects no matter how many points you have! If you get 3 or 4 enemies using intel attacks against you it's impossible to defend yourself even if you have more intel points than all of them combined. It's true that 1.41 seems to have worse defense effectiveness than previous Versions, but it was never possible to defend yourself properly against many opponents. Maybe a seperate list of counter-intel and 'other' projects would be a better way to organize intel. If you just increase the number of possible projects the problem gets worse.

Baron you hit the same point I mailed several times to MM!
I really don't see why they abandoned the counter intelligence system of SE III. It was clear and easy. If you spend more points on defense than all your enemies together for attack you are protected, otherwise some of their projects will succeed.
The offensive intelligence however is much better in SE IV.
