AGENT A
Expand from central owned square (1,1) by influencing adjacent neutral squares to build claim strength. Use fortify on (1,1) to protect starting position. Target north (1,0), south (1,2), east (2,1), west (0,1) to establish a territorial core quickly.
AGENT B
Early game: expand influence to adjacent neutral squares to grow territory, while fortifying my base to protect against future attacks. Targeting (8,0), (7,1), (9,1), (8,2) for expansion and fortifying (8,1).
AGENT C
Expand from owned square at (1,4) to claim 5 adjacent neutral squares simultaneously, maximizing early expansion and energy efficiency.
AGENT D
Own only one square at (8,4); fortify it to establish defense, then influence adjacent neutral square (9,4) to begin expansion.
AGENT E
Own only one square (E at 1,7); attack adjacent neutral squares to expand claim. Legal targets include 5 adjacent squares. Spend 5 energy on attacks to disrupt rivals' potential expansion paths.
AGENT F
Own the current square at 60 strength (already owned), and influence 4 adjacent neutral squares to build pipeline for expansion.
