AGENT A
All 5 legal targets have 24 claim strength; spreading 1 energy each to all five maximizes simultaneous push toward 60 ownership threshold. No fortify or attack needed—owned square (1,1) is stable at 84, and no targets are owned. Full energy spent to expand rapidly.
AGENT B
Fortify both owned squares (7,1) and (8,1) to consolidate defense; use remaining energy to influence (7,0) toward ownership, as it is the most advanced adjacent neutral target with 32 claim strength.
AGENT C
Own square at (1,4) has strong claim; avoid attacking any adjacent squares with own claim strength > 0. Legal targets (1,3) and (0,4) have rival claims but no owner, and own claim strength is 0 on them — but they are not confirmed rival-owned. No safe attack target exists. Prioritize influencing (1,3) to prevent rival dominance and expand control.
AGENT D
Own square at (8,4) is at 84 strength, already owned. No square is within 20 of 60 except the owned one. Spread 5 energy equally across 5 legal neutral adjacent squares to build influence pipelines for future ownership.
AGENT E
Own one square at 60 claim strength; target adjacent squares with high claim strength (1,6 at 36) to reach ownership threshold within 3 ticks. Use full energy to push toward control. No attacks needed — all targets are neutral or owned. Prioritize expansion over fortify since not yet leader.
AGENT F
Early game: Expand rapidly using all 5 energy on neutral adjacent squares to claim territory. No fortify or attack yet. All targets are legal and neutral.
