You're going on about trifles like IED's
I would like to see you tell each member of the families of all the soldiers kiled in Iraq that it was a mere "trifle" that they lost their son or daughter to an IED, and that since "modern armies have perfect intelligence", their son or daughter died in vain. You even said that major powers have this perfect intelligence over third world nations--you are wrong on both, as this example proves.
Air forces and navies have even less perfect intelligence than armies.
The USA did not have perfect intelligence to prevent 911. What little they had was flawed.
The United Nations did not have perfect intelligence on the whole nuke issue re Iraq.
The fact remains your statement is ridiculous, that intelligence is far from perfect, and as it relates to EVE, it makes no sense that players should know what rats they will face and how to arm themselves and tank their ship accordingly. There is no such "pre-intelligence" that is foolproof in real life, and in game play, it is sad that there are sources that let us know what NPC we will face and how to best deal with it. I really wish the NPCs were random in terms of attributes to reflect a real life battlefield. |

Stop Stop Stop Stop.
This is neither the time nor place to discuss real-world politics. |

The "real world politics" was used as an example to illustrate a game play issue (a concern of mine).... re knowing what type of NPC we will face in a mission ahead of time. |

Not to beat a dead dog or anything....
But when the USA went to war with Iraq, they did in fact know they would be fighting Iraqis. So my agent giving me a mission and telling me I am fighting the Amarr is, in fact, quite plausable. I don't think this is unrealistic. Just my 2 cents.
