If you are 100% sure that you are successfully doing economic espionages, then this may be part of the "slow quest" bug. It's been 3 days since you reported this, so if it still hasn't updated, then try contacting support.

They will reply. If you didn't send the feedback in more than 3 weeks ago, then I wouldn't expect you to have a reply yet.

r u sure u arent clicking military espionage?

are you sure you are doing the economic espionage because i though that sabotaging was the economic espionage if you know you are doing it then sorry for the criticism but you don't sabotage you go to regular espionage and then go to the top of the little screen and click on the thing that says military espionage and then click economic your welcome

On the contrary, you are sabotaging the castle or outpost in question, and not spying. When you are burning 5 buildings, you are in effect trying to handicap that particular player by hopefully targetting his farms thus stopping him/her from recruiting more soldiers. There are two options when you use the spy:

1. Espionage
2. Sabotage.

For the espionage option, it is already on the default, it is up to you to decide which one you want, either "military", or "Economic."

I hope that helps.

Yeah, exactly what LegendaryKing said. Be careful, and make sure you're selecting the right options...

If you are looking for food, fair enough, if you are looking at the military layout and you get caught, it can be curtains. It reminds me of the other day when I sent 1 spy to an outpost with 45 guards, I think. It was sent at 95%capture rate, and I succeeded one time out of 3. So, there is a flaw in the system. Another hint, when you have access to 15 spies, and you want to spy on someone who has NO guards, send only 7 or 8, because the more spies you send, the easier it will be for you to get caught, as I have done on many occasions via tests.

There is nothing wrong with the system. I suggest that you go [back] to primary school and learn what probability is. It involves CHANCE, and since EACH ESPIONAGE STANDS ALONE, you could succeed 5 times in a row or fail 500 times in a row with exactly the same chance of being caught.
