Kidnap
This order allows a character with agent skill to attempt to kidnap another character of a different nation. If the target character is guarded, then this order means that a check is made to see if the would-be kidnapper is able to defeat or elude the guards before they can make their kidnap attempt on the target. Success is based on the agent and stealth ranks of the assassin, the skill ranks of the target, the relations of the two nations involved, and the size of army or navy if the target is an army or navy commander. Failure may mean injury or death even if there are no guards present. If successful, the assassin’s agent rank will be improved by 1-10 points, and the target character will become a hostage. The hostage’s nation must still pay upkeep on the kidnapped character.
