Hello fellow Civers!
As the subject title suggests, I think the way Espionage is now rules...of course, if you have enough gold that is...
I think it is very powerful to utilize espionage in this game, one of the most immediate benefit is that you get to view the enemy's composition of their standing army. I think that's a very good gauge of how well you are doing in terms of military might.
The other is the ability to steal technology. In the game I am still playing, Monarch diff, I entered a war (actually the whole world got dragged because I hate fighting alone!), and had to change gov't type to Communism to kept on fighting. (2 fronts, took both out), but on the way lost my tech lead over other nations (I think only by 1, 2 at most)...and I found it out in the most disheartening way...i found my allies had this thing that I've never seen before...mech infantry...so I managed to steal it from the Chinese...hehe, feel so awesome after that...then stole Nuclear Power again..hehe, I think it's definitely the way to go. I usually pick the 2nd safest option (sometimes it didn't work, but you won't be found either)
Just wanna know what my fellow civers feel about it...
