Assasinate has been functioning fine, I've added a clause that when a successful assassination occurs you can kill no less than 1 enemy spy.

This should fix the 'problem'. :)

I had to make an adjustment to balance this, otherwise it would have been an over powered ability for less powerful people to use.

There the kills are now based off skill. The percents that allow you to get a kill are much higher.

But did u fix the wording off hand to say spies instead of anticovert


Assasinate should be ur spies killing their spies but their spies are defended by their anti COrrect.

Also does there covert level have any influence on assasinate or is it purely ur spies vs their anti to kill their spies?

It was designed to kill anti-spies, not spies arkangel.

But the rules and help file say it is to kill spies.

Assassinate
This option allows you to attempt to assasinate your enemies' spies. Be warned the enemy anti covert units will try to seek out your spies and kill them. The number of spies killed is based on your covert level.


That is from the rules and help file...

that's because it's mostly a cut n paste from the quantum rules. It was added in just before the game went live so barely tested, but Gary specifically announced it as a Spy mission to kill enemy Anti-Spies. It's why i was complaining about there being no way to kill spies, as it stands you can just train up tons and have no drawback except less income, which isn't really an issue when you can farm 3x per turn for "free".

The assassinate mission should now work as inteneded.

You send your spies to kill their spies, the enemy anti spies try to defend the spies your spies are trying to kill.

The spylogs have been updated as well to show both types of units killed or found dead.

Trust me from the other end of the stick when it did only kill 3 of my Assasins. Thanks for the little kiss mate, was happy to return the favour. :-D
