I am curious why others are not going out of there way to issue orders UM is requesting.
I scouted two towns I said I was going to and neither had an agent trying to counter. One even had an inactive level 2 agent in it.
To scout these towns I did not issue move orders for a couple of my groups which would have been a better use of my orders but this is a test game guys for the specific purpose of checking the orders and order checker.

Cannot speak for everyone, but I did not issue those orders this turn as I did not feel they had to be done today.
I am testing various orders, and trying to take pop centers so I can afford to test even more orders, including the ones he indicated.
My maidens were hired, but the program apparently changed their dainty noble maiden status to male.

According to the rulebook, order 510 only allows female as an option for governor/ambassador so all others will be invalid. I'll change the order checker and main game engine to trap this situation if someone tries to feminize something else.
About the test, yes, I had hoped more would have issued recons and counter-espionage actions last turn because my time is running out. Dec 2 is my last day for development then I'm starting a new contract (in addition to my normal job) so I have to get everything done for Rick in a week. Been working the weekends and dropped out of my two games (disliked dropping 176) to get as much done as possible so any help testing all of this would be great. I'm really flying thru the code to get the bulk of it programmed and hoping that I'll only have to fix minor bugs during Beta because development just won't be possible.
Anyway, thanks JF for the two recons. One had to contend with an intrinsic counteragent from the Order trait so that was cool. Funny though, the code gave that guy the +10% bonus for being in the same pc as it was protecting. I'll correct that and clean up some messages but overall the changes for the new counter-espionage looked pretty good.

Something else I noticed is that I got to see the PC an Emmy bounced off of due to a group blocking it. So got a lot of hidden info with s recon of a town

UM I also noticed my capital is getting scouted I think because an inactive group is sitting there. I believe the trait says only active groups

Just fixed order 510 to allow female for noble maidens (along with gov/amb) in the order checker. Also fixed an issue where the order checker wasn't adding the extra +1,000 gold to agent/wizard training for kingdoms with the Order trait. It should calculate those gold amounts correctly now. Also fixed an issue where the Zombie troop type wasn't recognized as a valid troop type by the website. So the next time you login, you should pick up these fixes.

I thought it would be good to test my trait (Order) which did in fact kick in as per my results
Agent Network Attempt was made to perform a reconnaissance on Area YW: The target was
protected by an agent team on guard in addition to regular security.

Oh and I guess the LI's fool is very funny.
