Re: Theme knowledge
 

The Scouts (as in the proper name) are distinguished by their cheapness. They don't have any other special abilities, but that's enough for me because most nations have other stealthy troops available already.

For example, T'ien Chi has the Imperial Consort, a charming lady who is also an expert spy. Machaka has the Eyes of the Lord (or is it the Ears of the Lord? I forget which one is which right now) who is a stealthy priest. He lacks full spying power, but, heck, he can preach!

Edit: Almost forgot! There's no direct info on what themes opposing nations have picked, but it is usually pretty obvious when you get a report or two on their troops. The nature of their Pretender God is revealed by the nifty new titles they receive based on their powers.
