== Espionage ==
There are two parts to espionage – the espionage level and projects.

The '''espionage level''' is built up like fleets – the value increases as
the player devotes successful actions to building up espionage. The
espionage level can be spent to steal a bonus from another empire,
however the espionage level spent has to equal double the value of the
bonus being stolen. Also, a useful tactic for stealing bonuses and not
getting found out is not to devote all actions to espionage that turn.

A '''Project''' is an action a player does not want the other empires to
know about – a fleet build-up, new technologies or simple espionage. In
such a case, players should put this as 'Develop/Continue Project X',
where X is the name of your project.

If a player has more espionage than another player, that player can
spend the difference between the empires espionage to uncover a project.
