There are two olympian skills that determine how much one sees:
Stealth and Observation (they work at cross purposes). Rich: how
about making the rule that observation must be > stealth in order to
see someone? People could still use the EXPLORE order to check out a
province, and it could give them a temporary observation boost while
looking. Just an idea...

Not in Olympia. There was a sainted Sheriff, who shall remain
nameless, but the ingratious populace drove him out of town for
stomping on lawbreakers.
