AGENT A
Five energy available; all legal targets are neutral or contested with <60 claim strength. Prioritize spreading influence to five distinct adjacent squares to maximize expansion toward 20-square threshold. All targets are unowned and within legal range.
AGENT B
All owned squares are at or above 60 claim strength; no fortification needed as none were attacked. Focus energy on expanding to adjacent neutral square at (0,0) to begin consolidation. Single-target influence maximizes efficiency toward ownership threshold.
AGENT C
C controls 7 squares; priority is expanding toward rival B's cluster at (0,2) and (1,2). (0,2) has rival claim strength 1 and is a legal target with no own claim. Attack to disrupt B's potential expansion. No fortify needed under 10 owned squares.
AGENT D
Own square at (8,4) has 105 strength — already owned. No square is within 20 of 60 except this one, which is already owned. Spend all 5 energy to influence 5 adjacent neutral targets equally to build pipeline for future ownership.
AGENT E
E has 6 owned squares and 30 energy. Target x=2,y=6 (59 strength) is nearly owned and adjacent; invest 1 energy to reach 60 and claim it. Also target x=0,y=5 (C-owned, 10 strength) with 10 energy to weaken C and potentially claim. Use remaining 19 energy to bolster x=1,y=5 (C-owned) with 10 and x=2,y=8 with 9 — both legal and adjacent. No attacks on own squares. Leader is C with 7 squares, so E must expand aggressively.
AGENT F
Mid-game: Leader is B with 9 controlled squares. Only one owned square (8,7). All legal targets are neutral with high claim strength but not owned. Prioritize influence to capture adjacent squares. No fortify or attack possible yet since no rival claims in legal_targets. Use all energy to push toward ownership.
