Specialist idea: stealth captain

The stealth captain would make submarine where he stands totally invisible for the others. To avoid beeing too cheated, he would move 50% less fast than a normal sub and will be the promotion of an Infiltrator
To be able to see a stealth captain, other players have to get a specialist promoted from Intelligence officer.

What do you think about this idea?

The fact that you have to promote a spec simply to see this is bad. That will be the worst promoted spec in the game.

Maybe it would be better if an intel officer alone would be able to see him?
I think it's an interesting idea, definitely something we have seen before, but still something worth mentioning (not that this development would be cheap!)

Agreed. Specs the specifically counter others are bad for Balkanize.

Yeah, Balkanization is just the worst whenever specs specifically counter each other.

Actually, I like this idea, but with a twist:

Sonar Jammer specialist:
-Global: All submarines, upon being detected, will only announce their presence via notification one hour after detection.
-Local: The submarine that the Sonar Jammer is on, when detected, will NOT SEND ANY NOTIFICATION to the detector.

"But it only works against people with notifications on!"
If you're playing without them, you're already at a huge disadvantage.

I won bronze in a game with the other forum regs, and I don't have notifications on. Ever.
