New features
Counterespionage
The first iteration of counterespionage was too passive and required to anchor one (or more) of your agents in your country. We’ve added new mechanics so you can be more proactive to prevent spy activities on your soil while using all your agents abroad.
Your counterespionage service will send a notification everytime a suspicious agent lands in your country. From there, you’ll have a limited time to send an agent back home to counter the enemy before they leave your country with a scientist.
There’s even the possibility to capture a spy for interrogation, see below.

Interrogation
When a spy is captured, they will be at your disposal for interrogation. This is a new feature that works a little bit like the diplomatic meeting. It’s quite different though, as the prisoner has a Will level and Health level. Your goal is lowering their Will level while keeping their Health level high to prevent death. Use interrogation and torture options to get intel.
Once you have everything you need, you can trade the prisoner during Diplomatic Meetings.



New contents
New agents
  • Diplomat (China)
  • Zenith (Turkey)
  • Rider (Japan)
  • Enigma (United Kingdom)
  • Catch (South Korea)
  • Scar (Turkey)



Organization quest system
Each organization in the game has now its own quest line you’ll have to complete to improve your standing with them and receive advantages.
This brings more backstory to the different factions while giving you clear objectives and useful rewards. But remember that dealing with certain organizations will have its fair share of diplomatic backfire.



Changes
  • Dashboard improvements
  • Balancing of ‘Loyal’, ‘Chaste’ and ‘Incorruptible’ scientist traits
  • Scientists now lose ‘Prisoner’ trait if brought back in their initial country
  • Infiltration between France, UK and Germany now takes only one day
  • New Technology tooltip in the tech tree with useful informations
  • New travel UI



Various bug fixes
  • Fixed bug where conflicts could have a negative number of victims
  • Agent quick menus and drone tooltips no longer open when dragging the map
  • During exfiltration, events where agent can get treatment now only show up when agent is hurt
  • Fixed bug where a critical failure in hack could lead to a wrong notification text
  • More bug fixes...

Dear agents,
With Robber and Ansturm, Germany proves again it can provides world-class operators.

ROBBER
BASIC INFO
Code Name : ROBBER
Real Name : Thea Lamm
Origin : Germany

BIOGRAPHY
Thea is not motivated by money, boredom drives her to rob banks, just because she can. Whether infiltrating a bank in broad daylight to hack accounts, or in the middle of the night to steal gold bars, her crimes are rarely accompanied by injuries or violence.
She turned herself in to the police two months ago and is currently in a high-security prison in Hamburg while she awaits her sentence. But we know that she deliberately got imprisoned just to give herself the challenge of escaping.

TRAITS
Hacker
Especially well-suited for hacking operations.

Ghost
Particularly elusive, this agent will almost never be detected by counter-espionage.

ANSTURM
BASIC INFO
Code Name : ANSTURM
Real Name : Erick Wildenbruch
Origin : Germany

BIOGRAPHY
Our investigations show that Erich's idyllic childhood in Munich is a façade that, for various reasons, he wishes to hide. When he was 18, he joined the German army serving in Europe where he displayed the qualities of an elite commando.
His excellent leadership qualities saw him become a colonel, though he soon came to regret leaving field operations behind. Now is the time for to recruit him as a high-level field operative.

TRAITS
Firearms Expert
In armed confrontations, this agent is particularly deadly.

Driving Master
More proficient behind the wheel of a vehicle during exfiltrations.

Honest
This agent is highly scrupulous and less than effective at bribery.

Loyal
This agent will never resign, no matter far they are pushed.
