I think Sabatours could have a new use in this harvesting world.... occupying harvestor units in a city and keeping them from being dispatched.

If Victory for sabotaged troops, distracted units are no longer distracted. If loss for sabotaged side, distracted troops are destroyed. 

if the saboteurs lose they should all die.

but i have not agreed or disagreed to this, just thought that should be added, if troops die then they should also be able to die

Saboteurs are not nearly as effective as they could be. Many suggestions have been made before, here are some more: 

  • Saboteurs should be able to sabotage catapults in a siege. Basic Saboteurs could potentially ruin 1 catapult fire, while advanced saboteurs could ruin multiple catapult launches. (stack Saboteur defense in your sieges!) 
  • Saboteurs can sabotage another player's sov. structures, making them useless for a certain duration. (A cities sabotage defense would have to be applied to sov. structure, with a loss the farther away)
  • Saboteurs can prevent basic resource production
  • Saboteurs can cause trade units to abandon their current mission (harvesting) and slowly march back to their city. (Guarding armies would need saboteurs attached)
  • Saboteurs can prevent troops from participating in battle
    • Saboteurs are sent to an enemy city -> They have a chance to cause a percentage of  military troops present to become "distracted" for a temporary amount of time -> When an attack is sent against the enemy city, the distracted troops do not participate in battle. 
    • If Victory for sabotaged troops, distracted units are no longer distracted. If loss for sabotaged side, distracted troops are destroyed.
