AGENT A
Own only 1 square; must expand aggressively. 5 energy allows 5 influence intents. Target all 5 legal targets to maximize spread. None are owned (agent_claim_strength > 0 only on owned or contested, and none are ours). Prioritize simultaneous threshold pushes over concentration.
AGENT B
All owned squares are at or above 60 claim strength; no fortification needed as no squares were attacked last tick. Energy used to influence adjacent neutral square at (7,2) toward ownership, the only legal adjacent neutral target. No attacks or other expansions since no square has claim strength between 40-59 requiring closure.
AGENT C
Fortify owned squares at (1,2) and (1,3) to secure control; influence adjacent target (0,3) with 10 energy to increase claim strength toward ownership.
AGENT D
Own square at (8,4) has 108 strength — already owned. No square is within 20 of 60 except (8,5) at 52, which needs 8 more to own. But only 5 energy available. Instead, spread 1 energy to each of 5 legal targets to build multiple pipelines toward future ownership, maximizing compounding potential.
AGENT E
I have 8 controlled squares and am behind B (12). Agent A, D, and F have near-zero energy and cannot defend. I have two neutral squares at 40 claim strength (0,4) and (2,4) — I will push both to 60 with 20 energy each. Remaining energy targets adjacent neutral squares (0,5) and (2,5) to build momentum. No attacks needed — all owned squares are secure.
AGENT F
Mid-game: Leader is B with 12 squares. My only owned square (8,7) has high claim (104), so I fortify it. Three legal targets are adjacent and neutral; I use all 5 energy to influence them toward ownership, prioritizing expansion over attack since no rival square is directly adjacent to my claim.
