The problem with that... fionwe1987 Send a noteboard - 16/11/2009 05:11:16 PM
You say faction A makes Gateways into location X. Opposing faction B senses the channeling at X and Travels there to prevent the Gateways from opening.

Now, here's the first issue... What if faction A opens and Gateway and immediately sends in 5 channelers? These channelers can then block the defenders from B opening gateways at X. Meanwhile, soldiers are pouring through...

This does not match at all with the way Jordan described the dynamics of Traveling behind enemy lines.

More importantly, why would he say "ways to interfere with the forming of Gateways", if all he means is weave slicing? Why not say that?

How to disrupt gateways that are made into a battle zone... Shannow - 16/11/2009 08:48:36 AM 832 Views
there could be other defensive methods as well redhand - 16/11/2009 09:06:56 AM 554 Views
Excellent suggestions... Shannow - 16/11/2009 09:08:59 AM 575 Views
That depends on whether moving gateways are possible. rAndy aL - 19/11/2009 02:01:40 AM 487 Views
I might as well present my argument in full Sidious - 16/11/2009 09:52:34 AM 647 Views
Both options can be valid, but here's why you MUST have the ward... Shannow - 16/11/2009 10:10:55 AM 809 Views

You're talking about manipulating the Pattern? Kronin al'Sulc - 17/11/2009 01:54:32 PM 455 Views

I think there's some evidence in favor of the wards idea you are all missing. Logain - 16/11/2009 05:29:22 PM 491 Views
I disagree Jim - 16/11/2009 07:15:53 PM 492 Views

there's no indication that the gateway isn't almost on top of a city Jim - 17/11/2009 03:09:31 AM 443 Views
It's definitely possible that there can be a ward to detect a gateway opening. Kronin al'Sulc - 17/11/2009 03:22:33 PM 471 Views
How bout a compromise? Gher - 16/11/2009 06:37:40 PM 543 Views
We know that, for e.g., Sammael could detect the location of a Gateway Marshall - 16/11/2009 08:21:57 PM 456 Views
Ahh, I see that Sidious has already suggested this. *NM* Marshall - 16/11/2009 08:30:55 PM 201 Views
i think an automatic weave would be too complicated to cover any reasonable area. Onarishma - 17/11/2009 06:06:54 AM 479 Views

I don't think you need to travel to the Gateway to disrupt it if the ward notifies you of location Onarishma - 17/11/2009 10:57:06 PM 519 Views
I believe that you cannot make a ward completely preventing Traveling. Kronin al'Sulc - 17/11/2009 01:52:24 PM 448 Views
