RTW: agents have upkeep

[Slaists]

Didn't notice it initially, but agents in RTW have upkeep and for some of them it is actually quite considerable (spies and assassins): especially if you produce these in hordes...

[Mayfield The Conqueror]

It is not in the unit description so how are you seeing this? In the summary you get after every turn?

[Slaists]

The upkeep is actually in the unit description that you can open while on the strategy map. I think, it goes as: 50 for the emissaries, 100 for the spies and 200 for the assassins.

Thank you for the information.. yay another bug to squash!

i thought diplomats had upkeep of 200?

[Arakasi]

Why would agent upkeep be a bug? Makes sense to me that agents would cost money to fund their efforts.

just checked; dips have upkeep of only 50 according to the description

i can't seem to find if watch towers have an upkeep ...

any ideas whether they make a realistic alternative to spys?

yay! now assassin hordes have to have a purpose (apart from sending you bankrupt!)
