Thanks, Xerxes.

But I already found it a couple of hours ago.

Those elephants are vicious!

Charge! *stomp stomp stomp*

Anyone here use the assassin-agent? I trained one once, sent him on 10-15 missions, he failed all but was never caught. Finally he failed, got caught and executed. Was I just that unlucky or are they generally worthless?

Your agents need more...practise.

You have to train them sending them off to kill diplomats and rebel captains first so they gain in experience and skill. You'll find that their experience grows and new companions roll in. Once you have your assasin up to a 100% chance of killing off diplomats or rebels you can send them off to kill family members of other factions or to wreak havoc in cities by sabotaging buildings. You'll get to a point you have many veteran agents killing off many generals for you. You'll have easier battles without so many enemy generals, although it does spoil the sport somewhat.

Neverthelesss, the more skilled agents you have you'll find they'll become easier (cheaper)to train. They prove to be very useful.
