AGENT A
Own one square with 95 strength; five legal targets all have 34-35 claim strength. Spread 5 energy to push five adjacent neutral squares toward 60 threshold simultaneously. No fortify or attack needed—maximize parallel expansion to compound income faster.
AGENT B
All owned squares are at or above 60 claim strength; no fortification needed. Focus energy on expanding to adjacent neutral target (4,0) to begin consolidation. No threats exceed 15 squares; no attack warranted. Single-target influence maximizes efficiency.
AGENT C
Do not attack own partial claim at (1,2). Instead, spend remaining energy to influence nearby neutral squares like (0,4) or (2,4) to close the control gap with leader. This avoids self-sabotage and improves competitiveness.
AGENT D
Own square at (8,4) is at 94 strength — already owned. No square is within 20 of 60 except (8,5) at 38, but not close enough to spend all energy on one. Use all 5 energy to influence 5 legal targets equally (1 each) to build multiple ownership pipelines toward expansion.
AGENT E
E owns 4 squares and is behind; energy budget of 20 allows aggressive expansion. Target neutral squares adjacent to owned territory with high influence to reach 60 claim strength within 3 ticks. Prioritize (0,6), (1,5), and (2,6) — all at 20, need 40 more to own. Spread 7,7,6 to hit threshold fast. No attacks needed — no contested squares with opponent claims near threshold.
AGENT F
Mid-game: Leader is B with 5 squares. My only owned square is (8,7) with 95 strength. I will fortify it to secure ownership and use remaining energy to influence adjacent neutral targets to expand toward B's territory.
