In 1939, Germany sent many sabateurs to British shores, all of whom were well prepared for, and captured in hours. They were then presented with a simple choice; execution, or counter-espionage.
It didn't take long for them to choose counter-espionage. They were sent to the aptly named double-cross commitee, who used them to gain information on the whereabouts of troops, while giving them useless information that Germany would recieve some days too late.
This commitee was never discovered or sspected by the Nazi espionage units, and many double-agents were receiving medals for thier work right up until the end of the war, when it was discovered by the surrendered German forces that thier celebrated agents had been working for Churchill, not Adolf Hitler

The double-cross commitee was the most successful espionage and counter-espionage operation of the 20th century.

Get the foreignmug. A Vauxhall nova with a bigger back. POS. The opel counterpart to the Nova was called Corsa too, so there really is no difference except for the shape and engines starting at 0.1 litre bigger. Terrible car.

Get the Rollin' in a hearsemug. (n.) Usually local band of militia who use thier knowledge of the terrain to thier advantage by ambushing and never engaging in open warfare. The Guerilla units are much often smaller than the force they take on, and due to thier fear of open warfare, they are often labelled as cowards by real armies. The Guerillas are usually considered to be more of a terrorist organisation than anything else, and are best countered by another guerilla unit attacking "thier" people. This counter-Guerilla unit will effectively flush them out or recede to the point where they are almost non-problematic.
This has best been seen with the IRA. In the 70's and 80's, Loyalists who believed the British government was going to give in to the IRA took up arms against the IRA. For every IRA attack that took place, a Loyalist one followed. This is not to mention that in the 90's, the Loyalists performed a number of assassinations on seemingly "untouchable" IRA suppliers, members and sympathists. Over this period, the UVF actually killed more people than the IRA did, although this is over-looked. When the number of IRA attacks went down, so did that of the Loyalists, until the "peace" agreements a few years ago. Splinter factions of both will continue to attack eachother, but they know that the IRA will never achieve the goal it set out to do.

Guerilla units are best destroyed by either similar units, or wreckless and intrusive army massives.
