So does this mean carrier pigeons are a valid form of communicating with your spy?
Nothing in the rules against it, and they aren't all that expensive either

Re: Spy Communication Idea

Would it not make more sense to put the message in a coconut, then have a swallow deliver it by gripping it by the husk? The wind speed velocity should be far greater for an african or european swallow than for a pigeon.

Re: Spy Communication Idea

How about two paper cups with a taut string attaching them?

legts is an unknown quantity at this point
Re: Spy Communication Idea

Probably not pigeons, but an African or European swallow could work. It would depend on the size of the coconut that contains the message, you see.
