Army statuses

• [i]ntercept This army will intercept a nearby army. Intercept raises the move cost in the area, and then (over the update) the army will move to any adjacent square where an enemy army might be located. This is quite powerful, since you don't have to defend each square; but you should be careful because intercepts can be decoyed.

  Intercept will also move the army to intercept a flying enemy army, once it has landed. But the increased move cost will not apply to flying enemy armies unless the intercepting army wields missiles (for example, archers). See the description of army flags.

• [p]atrol This army will patrol the area, raising the move cost for enemy armies. If the enemy army is flying, the move cost will only be raised if the patrolling army has missiles (for example, archers).

• [g]garrison This army garrisons the sector, getting an extra 10 bonus on your own land. If the sector belongs to a nation at TREATY with you, then you also get bonus 10. If it is ALLIED land, you get a bonus of 5.
