Sometimes it's not so easy to confont somebody in an honourable battle. Sometimes the stakes are too high, or your intelligence too murky, or you simply cannot match them on the field.

For a daily wage, and a little upfront cash, you can hire Spies to help you even the odds. Stealthy, efficient, and dangerous, Spies can be deployed to provinces all around the world, whether allied, enemy or neutral, and can help pave the way for a clean invasion, or throw the enemy's plans into chaos.

Ranging from intel-gathering, which will give you visibility over the enemy's armies and cities, to sabotage, which directly damages buildings, to disinformation campaigns that allow you to directly target the province's morale, Spies are extremely versatile, and a must-have in any global domination scheme.
