I did have this happen to me a week or so ago. I left my spy there just as an experiment and removed most of my army, I knew the HRE was going to take the province next but I thought that I would get some info from a spy left there. The spy never was captured but he also never told me anything. I took the province back about 25 yrs later and didn’t gain or loose any *’s. I didn’t know if this was a fluke or the rule.

I kind of think that the spies and assassins are somewhat underpowered vs. the BF. It shouldn’t be that hard to sneak into a province. Japan was more militant with all the checkpoints and such but I thought Europe was a bit wilder in the middle ages.

Sorry to hear about your TWO 4-star assassins getting caught in the same turn. It takes a long time for me to get ONE of them to that level I would have been totally over it.
