Counter Intel- using lower level projects

[Cylapse]

*LOL* That's awesome, I never considered it...
Keep your people on 'standby' more or less, good call...

So is there no espionage available now?
(I cant help but think I am spelling that word wrong)

Most of the intel operations seem like direct attacks, not very intel like ya know? The Mimic is cool, granted, but I was hoping for more spy-activity. Seeing what treaties they have, stealing some ship designs, whatever...
