Hi! I played Xxcha a few times and this is the first time i was presented with the opportunity to use agent on a neighbouring planet to kill the only infantry there and then use Diplo on it. However I wasn't presented with a button for the "infantry kill". I guess that would be useful 🙂
#Infantry killing button for Xxcha agent

Hmm I think itd be mispressed more often than itd be actually used
Ill think about it

Pretty sure if you had an experience where it was correct to use the xxcha agent to kill an infantry you're obligated to tell us about it in the #the-sandwich-bar @sacred dove
That sounds very cool

I've done this to reclaim my home planet from @hearty cape after they ghost-spirited it away from the rest of my fleet
(the game was promptly abandoned, but I was super proud of that play)

IDK, if I remember the killing infantry thing I usually use it

Not having the button there on purpose makes zero sense

Not having the button there *on purpose* makes zero sense
Idk, makes sense to me. Rare minor inconveinence to not have the button, frequent minor inconveince to have the button, takes work to implement the button, means makes sense to not have button

You frequently remove your own infantry?

We should implement an UNDO button or something to handle the oopsies!

I would not include removing ones own infantry as a button even though it's technically allowed
I would just add a note on the message
