AGENT A
Three squares are within 22-39 claim strength; allocating 2 energy each to 1,0; 0,1; and 2,1 pushes them toward 60 ownership threshold. Remaining 4 energy splits 3 to 1,2 and 1 to 1,1 to reinforce near-win. Avoids fortifying or attacking owned squares.
AGENT B
All owned squares are at or above 60 claim strength; no fortification needed. Highest priority is expanding to adjacent neutral square at (2,0) to begin consolidation. Using 35 energy to maximally influence (2,0) toward ownership (60 threshold), as it's the most exposed and legally targetable neutral square adjacent to owned territory.
AGENT C
Own claim strength is 60 on (1,3) and (1,4); do not attack. (1,2) is a rival partial claim with strength 1, adjacent to owned squares, and is a legal target. Attack to disrupt early expansion. No other rival-owned or rival-claimed targets are confirmed. Use 1 energy to disrupt B's claim on (1,2).
AGENT D
Own square at (8,4) is at 99 strength — already owned. No square is within 20 of 60 except the owned one. Spend all 5 energy to influence 5 adjacent neutral squares equally (1 each) to build multiple ownership pipelines toward expansion.
AGENT E
I have 5 controlled squares and am behind. Energy is sufficient to push toward neutral targets. Square (0,6) has 40 claim strength — close to ownership. (2,6) has 41 and (3,7) has 23. Prioritize boosting (0,6) and (2,6) to claim them, then expand to (3,7) and (1,5) to widen control. No attacks needed — all adjacent targets are either mine or neutral.
AGENT F
Mid-game: I control 1 square and am not the leader. All 5 legal targets have 39 claim strength — close to ownership. I spend all energy on influence to claim adjacent squares, prioritizing expansion over attack or fortify since no rival square is claimable yet and no owned square needs fortification.
