SPY/THIEVING

Spy/Thieving missions work in much the same way as spells.  Spy missions may be used to kill a percentage of the peasant population of an enemy province, spread positive information about your province to others, allowing your troops to return home quicker, etc.  Using the right mission at the right time could mean the difference between winning and losing a war.



The top of the Spy/Thieving Screen contains information about the current commander that is the Guild Master,  your current spy level, and the total number of thieves that your province currently has.

The first thing to do when performing a spy/thieving mission  is to choose a target (which may be yourself) and the mission that you are going to perform.  You can select a mission from the mission list which is located on the right side of your screen.  Your mission book will change to the page that contains information about the particular mission that you selected. 

Again Spy and Thieving missions work much like spells with the exception that it costs gold to conduct a mission.  Your spy level and the number of spies sent on a mission affect the success rate of the mission.  Also if you are conducting a mission an enemy province that has a higher spy level than yourself, your chances of carrying out a successfull mission diminishes.

A large variety of spy and thieving missions exist in the land of Jairon.  A list of the missions are listed below but can also be found under the mission book on the spy/thieving screen.
