As for units recon, does anyone start an army thinking about "the stinky gauls inside narbo matius walls" ? Does anyone think: "They only got missile units! I will start an army of horses" come on! I like to make an army using all 3 forces and i wont change it cuz "they got thousands of pigs".
I believe you can see if a general is greedy (and more like to be bribed) or not just sometimes. In most times you will probably see if he prefers the company of boys rather than girls (wich is a good reason for assassination!) and other stuff i just find... useless...
Hell yeah, in medieval they were more like spys!!! You got messages like "there is a rumor that your sons plan a revolt..." or "Spain will attack very soon" or... "your spy discovered a conspiration, the leader of that conspiration is bla bla" yeah... that was nice! THAT was more like spys stuff. Not just open gates or give details about the "burning-pigs army coming from the east".
