Intelligence Warfare

Winning usually requires knowing what one must do. Gaining information on your opponent and preventing him from knowing (truths) about you is one aspect of reaching a win.

Players gain information about each other by:

• Seeing via their units vision radius (when this is the whole point of a operation it is called Scouting)
• Using the minimap to access a more summary version of their units vision data
• Using Cloaking
• Inflicting Nanites either to gather information passively or actively
• Observing the Damage indicator
• Observing causes of events to deduce about what is/will be under the fog of war in the present
• Observing effects in the future to deduce about what is/will be under the for of war in the present
• Observing the time position of the other player
• Using Gradar
