spying on family member armies: RTW?

if you drop a spy on an army led by a captain, your agent will (if successful) reveal details about the army's composition. nonetheless, if you drop a spy on an army lead by a family member: only the member's parchment will be displayed - no details about the army composition. is that a feature or a bug? i know, his parchment is kinda interesting, but what i do really care about is whether his army is not full of warlord cavalry units.

I wondered this as well. You can still view the details for his bodyguard unit but I would like to view the army details as well.

Just close the parchment and double left click on the enemy army that you have your spy in (on the world map). You'll see the full army details.

hmm, will double check that: i thought, spies do not join enemy armies... and i'm preety sure, mine stayed visible on the map after spying on enemy family member units.

You're right, your spy will be next to the army, not in it. Still, the double-click function will work...

I really sure it does. You have to close the faction leader's parchment. Then you can double (left) click on the enemy stack and it will show the army composition. I distinctly remember thinking that was a problem, then coming back and seeing the entire army.
