Currently there seems to be no penalty for failed offensive spy missions. If your spy is killed the AI will give you a bit of a telling off and you can gain 30 DF by promising not to spy on them again. If the spy is captured it costs around 15 gpt to buy them back.
This is not realistic. When French DGCE agents blew up the Greenpeace ship "Rainbow Warrior" in a New Zealand port (and killed someone) it was a huge scandal and France had to give serious compensation to New Zealand to get its captured agents back.
What really annoys me is when an ally conducts a destructive operation like sabotage production or breach dam you can't even cancel the alliance. You can only retaliate in kind,
It would be nice if you had a selection of responses:
1. Do nothing
2. Demand compensation (fixed gold amount). If the offender refuses the demand then - alliance or friendship is cancelled and relationship becomes unfriendly and you can denounce or DOW later. If unfriendly or denounced war is automatically declared.
3. Cancel friendship/alliance if spying nation has this relationship
4. Declare war if unfriendly or denounced.
Also AI will have the same set of responses so there will be serious risk in spying on an ally you want to keep or a close powerful neighbor.
Also you shouldn't be able to see spies of allies.
