- For Shardok, start with a single-turn guard status before attempting more complex interception chains
**Current Follow-Up Priorities:**
- Teach the Shardok AI when to use the Warden evacuation command. The command is valuable when the Warden's side has
captured enemy heroes and can secure them by leaving the battle, especially when the battle outcome is uncertain or
trending against that side.
- Add the strategic passive custody bonus: each round, prisoners in a province guarded by a ruling-faction Warden should
get a small accumulated positive bias toward joining that faction. Prefer storing this as an addition to the existing
`factionBiases` entry rather than changing the global `roundsInType` multiplier, so the bonus only reflects rounds
actually spent under Warden custody.
- Make tactical AI more protective of heroes at risk of capture when a Warden may be present. Warden evacuation makes
captured heroes harder to recover, so the AI should treat exposing high-value heroes to capture as more dangerous than
before. This matters even when the AI does not have perfect knowledge that a Warden is in the battle.
