Spies question

[JJ_Colorado]

Hi,

What is the deal with spies seeing armies in adjacent territories? It seems like enemy armies sometimes slip right by my spies w/o my ever seeing them. How does this work?

Also, what is the command to rename a unit? I've seen renamed units in MP games but haven't figured out how to do it myself.

Thanks!

I think only your own provinces scan enemy armies in adjacent territories.

Otherwise, stealth and glamour and flying can get enemy armies past scouts - maybe other things.

To rename a unit, bring up its character sheet and type R.

actually, you need to type "r" (lower case, *not* "R") -- a minor point, but the game *is* case sensitive!
