There are Intelligence and Counter Intelligence attributes. :)

This is probably really low on the to do list as well, but some sort of tutorial would probably do wonders for figuring out how everything works. A brief description of geo efficiancy, if the different land color squares make any different to stats. Basic things. Should probably also make a description of what the techs do when you hover over them or click on them, but before you buy them. Otherwise you might click on a cool sounding tech that turns out to be worthless, and you just wasted a level up.

Speaking of level ups, will there be a way to undo your selections, or even reset your whole nation? With what you said to ZuckeR, I realized that there could very well be a noob or even somebody who doesn't realize it that will end up getting to 0% efficiancy and be screwed for the game, especially if somebody comes by and ends up taking most of their squares so they can't recover efficiancy.

Sorry for laying this all on you TIM, but I had the ideas and wanted to get them out there before I forgot

See 6.  Land doesn't do anything at the moment.  Eventually there will be mountains, which you will not be able to capture.  The mountains, just like water currently is, are non-capturable, which means they will cause geo efficiency penalties if you build around them. :P

Resetting your nation will come eventually.  We're not even to PVP yet.  Resetting will start you completely over though.  As it currently stands, you can Evacuate ALL of your land, refresh, and it will place you in a brand new location somewhere randomly on the map.  You can ALWAYS evac, so there is always a way to recover.

Ah, sorry. I didn't realize my suggestions were already on the to do list. Or rather, I wasn't thinking when I made them and didn't realize they were pretty much the same things. I'm sorry for that.

So question - is there any point to building our nation before most of this stuff goes in?

I don't know what effect all of the attributes have, so I don't want to get to a position where I've screwed myself by picking this over that, or by expanding too much, or by missing out on exploration bonuses, etc.

In other words, is it better to keep trucking away and leveling up, or will I most likely have to do a full reset in order to take best advantage of certain aspects of the game?

Checked off weapon selection.  It's not perfect, but it works.  Apparently you can't hide select options in a select box without actualyl removing them, then re-adding them in the future.  Meh, fuck it, it works for now.

If there was not a delay, you could spend a few minutes writing a bot, then consume the entire map.

tl;dr: the delay is there for a reason, don't ask about it again.
