Default Re: Intercepting Armies

Sounds like a good suggestion though. Makes sense to me. If I have a scout hiding in his province then it should be able to give me better info on his armies movements. A "plus" in interception would seem reasonable. Go ahead and put it in the wishlist.

But what if you don't want to intercept, and want to bypass the army instead. Shouldn't a spy be able to help with that as well?

Default Re: Intercepting Armies

yes that's a very good point. I guess the only way to resolve this issue is by giving spies/scouts the ability to carry more orders than they currently have. For example a 'detect enemy army movement' order which improve chances of intercepting enemy army, and a 'mislead enemy army movement' order which improve chances to evade enemy army.

I guess while this can make the game more in-depth, it would complicate the game interface even further.
