Here's a question that had been bugging my mind for some time: Unlike "public" things like open airfields and naval ships, how does one track underground stuff with simple one shot satellite pictures ? It takes years of constant surveillance to actually find these kind of things, and simple satellite rolls seem excessive in use.

SATINT tracking submarines in the Indian Sea. Let me write the RP out concerning how I do it later today.

In regards to silos, I do believe that I have had Canada under constant surveillance it'd be fair to say, JEDs antagonism with us started almost immediately when he started his nation and tried to attack Austria in the Pacific Northwest. Further I've seen documents that says you can see stuff like nuclear reactors underground with satellites, I'll pull that up this weekend.

More focused on underground airfields and hidden artillery batteries (like the ones North Korea uses). Now, with ICBM bases, those are too big to hide that easily, unless we're talking somewhere in the middle of the rain forest in a mountainous region.

Just saying unless we take into consideration what we're actually spying, simple spy rolls seem to be pushing it.


Oh, and I don't have ICBMs [b][i]bases[/b][/i] :v:

I have realized through my idiocy that Triyun had no right to claim the islands which are legally mine- I shredded and smoked the documentation that stated the OTH radar and things were being rebuilt... This means even though he would see the construction going on he would not know what it was for- Therefore, I re-lay claim to the islands.

MO, honestly you need to learn recognize the difference between an OOC grievance and an IC grievance. Your grievances with me are legitimate gripes IC, but they have no place in the GM court. Its true I could exaggerate the meaning behind satellite photos of the OTH complex, but that is not in anyway linked to my land grab which you acquiesced too. Nor is the inaccuracy or incomplete picture of intelligence cause for wiping an RP. Remember when GWB asked George Tenet if the evidence he presented to him on WMD was all they had, and George Tenet said "Mr. President its a slam dunk." The inaccuracy of the US Intelligence did not prevent the Iraq War. If a political leader wants to push a war through, they can push it through. You can go back further. The Gulf of Tonkin Incident which started the Vietnam War, that also was exaggerated, if it even happened.

There is no rule against propaganda, spinning, and misdirection. There is no rule against playing as an aggressive expansionist power. If you don't like the Horde you should look for avenues to oppose it IC, leave it out of the GM court.
