Description:

Tired of vanilla espionage operations? Do you just want to have operations that are worth clicking on them? You’ve come to the right place!
Intrigue, Sabotage, & Espionage Expanded Uses adds a bunch of powerful operations that you will absolutely love! And it doesn’t require any DLC!
(3.1.* compatible)

Sounds amazing, but what are the operations?
  • Give a claim on a capital system to another country
  • Reduce the diplomatic weight by 50% for 10 years
  • Destroy an outpost (without any colony in the system)
  • Bomb a planet
  • Nuke a planet
  • Abduct slaves
  • Free slaves
  • Steal a relic

Wow they sound really powerful! Is it really balanced?

To be honest? Not really. Some of them have a really high difficulty, so they might take time, but their effect are really good. Think of it more as role play tools. Play in MP at your own risks!

Does the AI use them?

No, as that would have been really difficult to make it interesting and still fun for all mod users (some might like when the AI nuke their planets, some might not). Even vanilla espionage is the same: they only acquire assets, steal tech and gather informations.

That’s a really cool mod! Anything else I need to know?

There is also a decision to select an espionage planet. It provides a very minor stability boost, but also makes the abducted/freed slaves go to that planet (instead of your capital). It can’t be removed/changed.
Also, as I’m not a native english speaker, the event/operations descriptions might have some typos/errors and are pretty simple. If you want to write some nice RP for them/some of them, feel free to DM me on discord!

Is it compatible with X? And is it achievement compatible? What languages are available?

It should be compatible with pretty much anything. Sadly, it is not achievement compatible.
For now, the mod is only localised in english. The other languages will have the texts in english too.

You have convinced me, I will totally try this mod!

Have fun!

Requirements

None!
