Have you ever thought of being able to transport more than 3 specialist at a time well I thought about a Minister Of Transportation(MOT), when added to a sub , 2 more empty slots spear making it 5 specialist now that you can carry(or just actually 4 if you calculate the space the MOT is already taking , was thinking you could get this when you promote a helmsman, cause face it soon as you get an admiral those guys become useless but now you can make better use of them

Okay: First of all, the developers are sadly gone and there will most likely be no more updates.
Second of all; This seems like a really unbalanced specialist. You could just have 4 thieves running around and stealing 60% (Of 300 that is 180 drillers) of all drillers.
You'd probably end up gaining drillers and not losing them after battle.

I think this idea sounds cool, but maybe not in the way you originally had it.
Having extra specialists on one sub can cause some serious damage, and I think it is correctly limited.
But what if, with a Minister of Transportation, you could:
Teleport Specialists from one outpost you own to another? It wouldn't be instant, of course; it would take a similar amount of time that a sub might take, or half that, something.
I think that sounds cool. Avoid those villainous pirates out on the open seas. Lol.

I think that the developers where wise to cap the specialist cap at 3. It forces you to think and ponder what specialists would be the best on what sub instead of just being able to throw every specialist with all of their fun or evil bonuses. This makes the choices more interesting and overall a much more interesting game.

That's why they capped them. Imagine 5 thieves running around stealing literally every single driller. (Thieves took 20% in the alpha)

wow really? So 3 thieves could almost win any battle? (0.8^3=0.512, so 51.2%)

Yup.
