## Game Mechanics and Strategy
There are two primary systems: military strength and subterfuge. To grow an
empire and win, players must carefully balance both elements. Because a fresh
map is created for each game, players also need to adapt their strategies to
each new world.
Military strength is represented by Soldiers. They are straightforward and
effective, relying on strength of numbers, and are used to take control of the
castles that are needed to win. Soldiers combine to form armies, and battles
are won by the largest army in a region.
Subterfuge is the domain of Spies. They are more complex than Soldiers,
dealing with hidden information, surprise and paranoia. Spies are used to take
control of cities, which provide the action points needed to power all
activities. They can also turn the tide of battle, assassinate other spies,
sabotage castle defenses and more. A spy’s effectiveness is determined by its
rank, with the most highly ranked spy in a region having the upper hand.
Working from the shadows, spies are hidden and can only be seen by an enemy
spy of superior rank.
