The biggest problem I usually run into is the AI loves to assassinate all of my agents, even when protected within my own lands surrounded by border forts and other counterspying agents.
Oftentimes I'll produce several emissaries just to try to reach one enemy king to propose a ceasefire or alliance, and they'll all get shot down on the way, and my preaching alims & bishops also tend to have an incredibly short life expectancy. My assassins tend to do pretty well if I keep them at home or find a less guarded enemy province to hang out in, but my spies never seem to get a chance to foment rebellion before they're captured and executed, even if I build them in VI with several valour to begin with.
Any tips for extending their lives so they can actually do their jobs?
