Spy Networks

Playing late into my game as France and I realized that spies now have the ability to set up "Spy Networks" in regions.

If a spy is successful and stays in a city for 2-4 turns then he'll eventually set up a network that allows you to see the entire region. This I find very useful and makes Spies an actual useful agent on the field.

Though my question because I haven't tried it yet but how long do these networks last for? If I move my spy to another city will the network eventually disappear?

AFAIK, network dissappears as soon as you move your spy out of town

AHH so that explains why i can see some regions without fow. =P....

has anyone been able to set up a counter-spying network in your own regions? if such a thing exists in the game.

Just find the little bugger and GANK his ass of this world

Execute everyone then you will have solved the problem

Sometimes I do Operation:"Cleansing" and burn regions to the ground where I might suspect spies might be and they flee and it makes it easier to catch them....

Assassination percentages need to be toned down, it's almost 'Assassin' Total War in some cases.

You can burn regions to the ground in NTW? How do you do it? Did I miss these feature in ETW?
