Bird Campaign Super Spy Command:

The description says: "Super spy deluxe with the additional option of setting a planetary friendly code to NTP which will prevent the fighters on a planet or starbase from launching. Requires Super Spy Deluxe to be active."

Tried it, but it didn't work. Even though my reports said that the FC was changed to "NTP" the base launched it's fighters.

Does anyone know whether the FC "NTP" is case-sensitive? Does it work only if birds attack the base?

Thanks in advance for switching my lights on.

NTP — (No Torpedoes) Use of this Friendly Code will cause the planet to not use fighters in its defense against Bird Men starships. This only works when set by the Super Spy Deluxe mission of a Bird Men starship, and those Birdmen have researched and enabled the Super Spy Command advantage. This Friendly Code has no effect for attacking ships from other races.


Even if you voluntary change your friendly code to NTP to aid your doom it only works versus the Birds.

You asked: "Does it work only if birds attack the base?"

I believe the answer is yes. Did you fight the base or someone else?

@Flaabes,

The description of the advantage in the advantage selection screen is short. It has to be or it won't fit. For a better description, look at the documentation (http://planets.nu/#/howtoplay/adv-super-spy-command). I just reread that page, and realized that the information on the timing, chances, scanning, cloaking and disabling weren't in there, so I added them (some of this was also added to the Super Spy Deluxe page).

When researching advantages for a Campaign game, it's usually wise to check out the documentation. I believe that all of the advantages are linked from the Advantages documentation page (http://planets.nu/#/howtoplay/dashboard-advantages).
