i think an automatic weave would be too complicated to cover any reasonable area. Onarishma Send a noteboard - 17/11/2009 06:06:54 AM
So far the only weave seek act indepedently of the channeler was woven by Rand with Callandor to kill Shadowspawn and considering he indicated that he felt them dying it's possible that it was only somewhat independent of him.

We know that much simpler wards like what Rahvin and Sammael used would do an efficient job of notification. Also let's be reasonable no significant troop movement would be done using normal size gateways. Circles like the one used to move the rebels would be used and likely a circle would be used to monitor the wards.

Besides the issue of complexity there is also the simple fact that an automatic weave would block your own Travelers as well as your enemies. With a monitored weave allies could announce themselves like Graendal muses in her meeting with Moggy and Cyndane(don't we know a platinum blond named Cindy aka suzzane summers) The weave you suggest would be impractical.

That depends on whether moving gateways are possible. - 19/11/2009 02:01:40 AM 516 Views
I might as well present my argument in full - 16/11/2009 09:52:34 AM 678 Views
Both options can be valid, but here's why you MUST have the ward... - 16/11/2009 10:10:55 AM 837 Views

I think there's some evidence in favor of the wards idea you are all missing. - 16/11/2009 05:29:22 PM 522 Views
I disagree - 16/11/2009 07:15:53 PM 519 Views

It's definitely possible that there can be a ward to detect a gateway opening. - 17/11/2009 03:22:33 PM 502 Views
How bout a compromise? - 16/11/2009 06:37:40 PM 575 Views
We know that, for e.g., Sammael could detect the location of a Gateway - 16/11/2009 08:21:57 PM 488 Views
Ahh, I see that Sidious has already suggested this. *NM* - 16/11/2009 08:30:55 PM 212 Views

I believe that you cannot make a ward completely preventing Traveling. - 17/11/2009 01:52:24 PM 480 Views
