So I find myself mucking around Pat's latest version of hell over the
weekend, and when I have a chance to login I get all these "You have no
capital" messages.
Well, earlier in the setup the Deity had a typo and wiped all the caps,
but this was different.
A player that had been neutral in both directions nuked my cap (so the
deity was playing to test some things, no big deal

and that was that.
In fact there was a message (no ABMS launched to intercept [just sitting
there of the f***ing launchpad], or something close to, memory is failing).
Anyway, I got to thinking, empire lesson learned, when in doubt go
hostile to everyone, but wait, that doesn't make any sense.
In RL, any missile coming in , if detected , would be targeted by ABM's.
Noone is going to read the manufacturer or senders label to see if it
came from foe (intentional) or friend (unintentional). A missle coming
inbound is a problem. (RL and EMpire)
I suggest a change that allows abms to react to any threat. What if a
player mistypes a coordinate? Just cause we are friends doesn't mean
that we are stupid about an icbm, most likely with a warhead.
