Default Re: Stellar Manipulation Suggestion for 1.42

Thanks for the input everyone.

I am aware of the 10 WP limit, but this hardly seems a solution, rather it simply exploits a limitation of the system and so merely provides an awkward workaround (this is not to say that I wouldn't do it in extremis though).

A good general (as Sun Tzu makes clear) always seeks to match concentration against dispersion. You are constantly seeking to be elsewhere than your opponent believes you to be, attacking where he believes you will defend, etc. To accomplish this you must know yourself, know your enemy and know the terrain. Unfortunately, WP technology renders the terrain essentially unknowable.

This has bothered me for some time actually, I am surprised that it has not been as issue before as it is so obviously destructive to strategy. All you can do in such a situation is react.
