Recruited officers can be employed as spies to infiltrate enemy forces and sneak into cities.

Alternatively, if the spy isn't caught, then the player can perform different Ruses against the enemy army.

Cities may now be explored, and players can access barracks, mystics, and town squares.

Barracks: Here, the player can buy additional Tactics using Craft points, which are earned by defeating officers and winning battles.

Order Chain: When this command is used, the strategist will sacrifice 5 morale to affect allied officers within a certain area.

Dynasty Tactics 2 was met with positive reception, albeit slightly less than the first game.
