Hmmm. The city-state in the corner has 3 crowns in its icon. Stockholm?

 

[Larsenex]

What is the 'fail' mission chance if any?

 

[rastak]

Great work heist, that's funny.

Great Work Heist? Now you don't *have* to declare war to take another civ's great works. That's a game changer.

I missed more in depth missions for spies, where your spy could just wreak havoc on an enemy (or a friend).

I think so. So this along with the difference in colour of civ icons in the civ selection screen could mean that the darker blue and yellow borders we saw before were just alterations of France's colour scheme that they were testing out (like they were doing in the Brazil first look vid)

The one thing that we all said we hated is the one thing we are getting

Spies can also get Eurekas for techs. (Seen in tech tree for some later techs "boost only by spy or Great Scientist") maybe only available late game.

One of the few things I disliked in BNW was screwing around getting great works theming bonuses.

CBP added a button for that I think. I just started playing with that mod.

Oh man, more uses for spies! France just became considerably more interesting to play.

If I'm not mistaken, you can also trade great works just like you can resources now.

Maybe it's not available since there's no campus here. You can see the missions are based on the available districts. Too bad there's no religious mission available. I guess that might not have been unlocked yet.

Seems like the espionage system is slightly lifted from Beyond Earth.

Yes, you could say that. LOL Of course, the espionage system in BE was one of the great things about the game, so I am fine with civ6 using it.

Marbozir mentioned he got a Great Work from a Goody Hut and all the other civs wanted to buy it from him.

Wow, that is some kind of punishment for somebody that builds a super-commerce city to fund their empire.

I doubt it actually takes it away. It probably conjures the gold out of thin air to give to the spyer.

 

[isau]

LOL at stealing great works. That's actually amazing.

Well it totally could take the gold away, because presumably stealing a Great Work takes the Work away as well. Guard your coffers.

 

[TheMarshmallowBear]

I'd like to point out that the spy is a unit

I don't think they would implement a feature that drains massive amounts of GPT from you which you can't take action to stop. Also they would have to explain to you why it's occurring, which would clue you in that there's a spy mission happening. But we'll see.

By Jove, you're right!
