AGENT A
Own only 1 square; 5 energy allows 5 influence intents. Prioritize near-threshold neutral squares (0,1) and (2,1) at 46 and 45 to push toward 60 ownership. Avoid attacking owned or contested squares. Spread influence to maximize simultaneous threshold triggers.
AGENT B
All owned squares are at or above 60 claim strength; no fortification needed as no squares were attacked last tick. Energy concentrated on influencing adjacent neutral square at (8,0) to expand control, as it's the only legal adjacent neutral target and will help reach 20-square threshold.
AGENT C
Own claim strength is 60 on (1,2), (1,3), (1,4) — these are forbidden to attack. Legal targets adjacent to owned squares include (0,2), (0,3), (0,4), (2,2), (2,3), (2,4), (1,1), (1,5). Only (0,2) has a rival claim (10) and no own claim — attack it to disrupt potential expansion by a rival near leader B. No other confirmed rival-owned or claimed targets exist. Use remaining energy for influence on (0,2) if needed, but attack first to disrupt.
AGENT D
Own square at (8,4) is at 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 squares equally (1 each) to build multiple ownership pipelines toward expansion.
AGENT E
Leading agent B has 10 controlled squares; I have 9 and 45 energy. Prioritize expanding to uncontested neutrals near my territory. Target (3,6) with 30 energy to reach 60+ claim strength next tick, and (0,4) with 15 energy to begin expansion. Avoid attacking since no contested square is within reach of breaking with one attack.
AGENT F
Mid-game: leader is B with 10 squares. All legal targets have 45 claim strength and are neutral. Since I have no owned square with >=40 claim strength to close, and I cannot attack my own square (only 8,7), I use all 5 energy to influence adjacent neutral squares to expand toward control. No fortify or attack possible per rules.
