    Give me back my crystal ball.

    Moving all intel to thievery was interesting, dramatic, really exciting for all of one week, and everybody knew it was a bad idea.
    You had your fun.

    Now give me back my crystal ball, so I have a use for my wizards and mana.
    Catwalk's crusade for legalized cheating was a stunning success, with ghettos and low-tiered teams everywhere losing their wells of knowledge to better kingdoms in the process.

    Step one: replace everything that works.
    Step two: blame the predictable epic fail on outside forces.
    Step three: keep the community informed that no progress has been made since the last update.
    Step four: thank you for your patience.

    I hate it how I use all my stealth to get intel then can't steal gold when I find it.

    Bad Intell and No gold

    That's this age in a nutshell: well, at least the drawbacks. Sages rock. But having to use thieves for intel--bad intell-- puts a real damper on attacking. I have sent 20% more than intel told me to and still bunced. That doesn;t make for a very dynamic gamge, nor does nto being able to streal much because your stealth goes for bad intel... I'm seeing a lot of overloaded defenses. This game is very quickly turning back into a collection of turtles who explore and never attack, and that is killing it.. IMHO.

    Bishop, fix the SoTs. They are displaying severe randomness.

    I like that intel ops only cost 1% stealth, but I agree that CB should still be a mage op.

    CB should be a mage OP and cost 1% mana
    CE (snatch news?) can remain a thief op.

    I like the dynamic nature of the current CB/Spy on Throne. If I want access to intel I can beef up my thieve force and I can do that quickly. No need to go through building lots of Guilds and waiting for the wizard population to grow.

    I hope it stays a thief operation.

    I really like the way it is now. I may be in the minority, but I'm really cool with it.

    I think its stupid. But I did find that if you send 50 thiefs instead of 50% you get decent enough intel. Need to take multiple SoTs though and o with the highest you get. Cuz sending 50% thieves for that "3% random" is costly even in NW on target with no thiefs. Lost 16 thiefs on succesful SoT. Stupid. But I have only failed once this age so all good I guess.
