Re: Tips for spying.

Upgrading your hideout helps reduce risk threat.

Choose larger cities over smaller ones. Spies will do better there.

Once your spy has arrived in a city, let him sit there until his risk threat is at 5%.

When spying a garrison, use the player search first to determine their military score. If it's zero...they have no army and it's not worth the risk. Spy their warehouse instead and see if it's worth the trip to pillage.

Re: Tips for spying.

Geez i had both of my spies get caught on a 5% risk value, not doing that for awhile. I'll just build up my defense.

Re: Tips for spying.

I'm pretty sure that military score is for a player rather than just the city you are viewing so even if there is a military score there may be no army at that colony.
