You oughta delay messages as well.  It makes no sense that I can 
instantly communicate with someone 1000 miles away.  How about messages 
taking 1/3 the travel time to arrive, rounded down?  It makes sense that 
a single messenger can run three or four times as fast as you can 
travel, but instantly?

That would help make spying a little less useful _and_ make it very hard 
for a General to lead from anywhere except the front; much more 
realistic and fun too.
