I think the entire leverage system needs improvement. I find the micromanagement associated to it to be very tedious (send eight or more agents, keep agents close to possible leverage sources, cycle through agents checking for leverage intel, check for leverage intel every time a crisis occurs, collecting leverage, forgiving crisis once leverage is collected). The search for leverage intel slows the game pace. I wish I could order my agents to do it automatically or, even better, that this system was entirely inside the diplomatic screen. But since a rework would require lots of changes, one quick change that could improve things is showing leverage intel when zoom out is maxed. I want to be able to look the entire map for levarege, but the map keeps hiding them once the zoom is too far.


I can see the leverage intel here


I zoomed out a little and can no longer see the leverage intel


I want to be able to see leverage intel when the zoom is this far

This would certainly help in the short term, but I agree that collection of leverage is very frustrating. 


It's an easy thing to program a computer to run around with envoys, but isn't fun at all for a human. 


I still say the main source of leverage should be passive, from having active diplomatic agreements (so it rewards diplomatic play). With the map based as an addition.

Totally agree. I just finished a huge game that took hours in which most of the time I was cycling through agents checking for leverage. I don't feel like playing again at all until they fix this.

I agree. Simply put, have the Spy system from Civilization V and VI for placing Envoys and automatically gather Leverage Intel.

Agree with everyone.. the last thing I want to do is chase after pieces of paper on the screen. If it stays then please please display the Intel at max zoom out
