Using Dimension Door, fly, and wings, you can sneak into neighboring respawns without killing the guards (both GO and the rest of the gang). You just CANNOT visit any objects using them!!!
P.S. By the way, on this same note: I noticed on the Portal IMO a ridiculous rule that you can't even touch +1 attack, defense, etc. visitables until the breakthrough under threat of techloss — surely we don't have such idiocy? In my opinion, such structures aren't much better than a chest and a pile of resources that you can take from under shifted guards...
Here, you can't either, but regarding techloss, that's on the opponent's conscience. I've never even thought of demanding a techwin for such a thing)). I strongly advise all those in favor of a revolution to read this entire topic from the very beginning, and you'll understand that this has happened before, like in The Matrix )). There were far more prohibitions and restrictions than there are now. People started saying you could break your head trying to remember them all. That's why they were simplified. If you were to account for every single moment of every case with all possible variations, you'd end up with a collection of writings no thinner than Dahl's dictionary. As soon as rules started being written, and they were written following the template of the HP rules, I wanted to refine them as much as possible and spell out every little detail. But then I realized it was better not to, otherwise it would turn into something like:

"It is forbidden to visit object N without fulfilling the conditions of rule clause №XX1, but at the same time, if this case does not contradict clause №ХХ2, then as an exception, this prohibition is ignored, but only by the BLUE player!!! For the RED player, this prohibition applies in practically all cases, except for one, which is described in the exception to the rules at the end of this section. Furthermore, this exception does not apply on the first day of the week, meaning RED in this situation can use a red-rush without any fear."

This is roughly the nonsense the rules would look like if they were written to cover every little thing, every detail, so that even a top-tier lawyer couldn't find a loophole :). Although you can find a contradiction in anything, even a country's constitution, if you want to :). So, let's keep things simpler. If a controversial point comes up that is not covered in the regulations, you can negotiate with your opponent during the game.
