Many people think the infiltrator is an underpowered specialist so I came up with a promotion to help bring more appeal to the infiltrator.

Demolition expert

Drains 10 shelf charge from an enemy outpost in combat. If at the end of the specialist phase the outpost has no shields destroy 20 enemy drillers.

If you only have a demolition expert, yes. However you can also have an infiltrator and this will give you a rang of benafits of 30. Or if your opponent has a king this can still help.

I'm not sure I see how this is better? In my opinion it's a demotion, and I would never use a hire to get it. The beneficial effect only takes place if your opponent has 10 shield, so now it's completely useless against a base with high shield, which is what the infiltrator is supposed to counter in the first place.
