Only Options in Espionage Are Investigate City and Steal Tech

[Blalthazar]

After building an intelligence agency, the only espionage options I get are investigate city and steal technology. I can't find plant spy or the options that come after it.

I'm running 1.16f under XP Pro.

Have you tried clicking on the pentagon shape on the bar of the city what built the intell agency? Try right clicking on that city, too.

double click on the pentagon shape on the bar of the city what built the intell agency, you'lll get an option to plant a spy to all the civs you got embassies with. it's risky, because it may fail and you can piss them off. when you plant a spy, clicking on E (the espionage option) and choosing a civilization you got spy at will let you choose either to use embassy or a spy, when you choose spy, you can do a lotta more then just investigate or steal tehnology, like steal plans, sabotage industry, propaganda (which I NEVER got to work, what's up with that???) etc. Also, having a spy, on your military advisor screen, you can check what kinda armies your opponents have.

Checking the size of the enemy military is the ONLY reason for Espionage.

Even the "safe" variety rarely works and often starts wars. I lowered by more than half the cost of everthying related to spying and it still isn't worth it.
