The bonus is not a reflection of the strength of a faction encryption, but of its ability to hack and dencrypt others messages

I personally love this idea. This would open up so much more RP opportunities and possibilities.
Adding the Mactan encryption could count towards extra encryption on the comms. Meaning even if the comms got hacked they would be faced with extra encryption. Add real time to delay this decryption inRP to something like a few days. Thus it's not a case of "unbreakable encryption". Instead it would reflect on what would really be the case.

I can see how this can be easily abused in time. It's not a bad idea but it would provoke a lot of drama over the forums, that I can bet you.

Depends on the content of his comms. Locklear's sex life probably won't cause too much drama, I hope.

Yeah but in all seriousness, when it comes to important stuff, it could be abused. People already metagame over other people's comms.

You have no idea, Lyth. You have literally no idea.

I guess I worded it wrong I understood the idea what I meant was the ability of hacking encryption by research groups.

Post updated with proper procedure, limitations, and odds of me detecting a hack based on a poor roll.
