    This makes no sense. A spy / assassins killed during a mission has to be replaced just like one that dies of old age. If you allow them to live forever all the factions will end up with super elite spies / assassins with hundreds of years experience.
    Not really, because they would inevitably be killed anyway. Sooner or later their luck will run out and that minimum 5% chance to die on operations will come and bite them in the ass.

    The way it is now it's just too much micromanagement to build and maintain an adequate spy/assasin/diplomat network.

    I think ideally the spy network would be abstract, not actual characters moving around the map. The more money you put in, the more effective it is. Cut off funding, it goes away.

    Its just a way of allieviating some micromanagement and getting a few less characters off of the (now very crowded) map.

    A few civ advisor type screens would be nice, so you can see all the empires information and perhasp change things like tax rates and the like.

    Echoing Leigo's call for Field fortifacations, sieges here can't really be done without trenches. Also it would be nice that when Sailing the defender is around the entire forces instead of just the gate. Then it really will make the player have to draw the oppenent out into battle until he has the numbers to strongly surround the fortress.
