Inaccurate intel?

[Pax]

Here's an idea:

Are there any FREIGHTERS in orbit? Anythign at all with the transport capacity to LIFT that many WPlats and troops ... ?

If so ... perhaps the guy is manually loading everything from the planet at the end of his turn ... then giving the freighters orders to DROP the cargo back on the planet on day 1.

IF so, and -=IF=- intelligence activities occur on "day zero" of the month ... that could explain your innacurate reports right there. When the world is scouted, it has no WPlats, no troops, etc.

A few hours later, the whole schmear is offloaded from the orbiting freighters (again), in time to play catch-the-plasma-bolt with your fleet(s) ...
