[QUOTE="Horwath, post: 6954746, member: 6801299"] How do you battle spies and thieves? Hire your own spies and thieves to watch then and set up your defenses. Better yet, pay some of the guests that they spy for you now. Not many wars have been won without winning the intelligence/counter-intelligence "shadow war" first. getting adventurers would be good plot hook as you mentioned. throwing around arcane lock as candy would also do the trick. post double shifts for guards around palace/town. Make sure that the event is after some state/religious holiday that you have been generous to the common folk. People get their patriotism high for a while when they have been "greased" by the ruling class. Might get more difficult for foreign spies to "grease" them instead. Make the law that all weapons and spell components are illegal except for your people with high enough "clearance level". [/QUOTE]
