Name: Adventurer Infiltrators

Summary:
Allow Adventurers access to the sub class "Infiltrator".

Details:
The current Infil game is incredibly weak. The skills are very hard to acquire, the missions are almost impossible, and you hemorrhage honor and prestige. It is looked down on as less than noble, so why not open it up to those who are less than noble? I suggest allowing Adventurers to be come Infiltrators (requiring the same honor and prestige as nobles, to make it difficult to attain), giving them the same options as noble Infils, but keeping their timepool and movement.


Benefits:
1. This give nobles something to do with gold. There is a lot of gold floating around these days, and instead of nerfing it, we should find things to spend it on other than just recruiting troops and occasionally repairing forts.
2. Gives Advies something to aspire to. The class currently lacks depth. Having a goal would be nice.
3. Advies who are Infils would have an edge, due to their movement abilities. It would be much easier to carry out missions undetected.
4. Adds more risk factor. Everyone loves danger. If you get caught as an Advie, no one is going to bail you out. Conduct business at your own peril!

Downsides:
I hate this part of the request process. Every suggestion I make always sound perfect to me until someone rips it apart ;)

Frequently requested, frequently rejected.

Not going to happen.

I've got an overhaul of the infiltrator class sketched out, that should address the imbalances in it as it standsâ€"right now, given its kit, it's too likely to swing between OP and frustratingly useless, and I want to make it more generally useful and less flashy.
