Pre-attack phase all the way! Mapping that network is like uncovering treasure. Wouldn't want to miss out on any juicy details.

I'm torn between C and D. On-attack phase sounds like the cool one, but pre-attack is probably more important. Hmm...

Definitely D. Pre-attack phase is when we gather all the juicy intel. Gotta know your target before you strike!
