Intel Guide?

[Slick]

I will summarize the points here and add it to the FAQ.

OOPS! I misunderstood that post.

Stone Mill, are you intending to write an Intel section to the Newbie FAQ? If so, that's the right place to put this info and we can wait for that. If not, then I'll summarize this thread (with author credits of course) and put it somewhere in the Intelligence section. Which do you prefer?

Why not do both?

Only use Food Contamination on smaller colonies - don't even bother with a homeworld! The population will regenerate in a turn or two and you'll have wasted 20K intel points. But if you use it on a smaller colony (<50M), you can wipe out the entire colony and force the enemy to send a transport to repopulate it before it can produce or build anything!

unless you have blockaided it

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...
