Hi, I couldn't find a thread on this, and I don't know if this is by design or a bug, but I'm going to say a bug.
This is the first time being in this situation, so I don't know what it was like before...
But I was playing Russia on a huge shuffle map and I had three spies captured by Japan over the course of some time. I refused to trade for them back as it was too expensive, so I went to war in the hope of gaining them back from the cities they were captured in.
Even though I captured those cities, this proved to be ineffective, and so I completely conqured Japan thinking that the spies would be returned at the end. They were not. Instead in my Espionage column, the three spies were still there saying "Captured by Hojo Tokimune" and a button "Ask For Trade" still next to them.
Obviously clicking the button resulted in nothing as Hojo was no longer in the game and I occupied all his cities!
So I had 3 useless spies that I could not replace for the rest of the game.
Luckily, I won it in domination anyhow! :)
Has anyone else encountered this?
Sorry if this has been reported before.
Hope it helps if it hasn't though.
