I think this would be a cool thing to implement. say an opponent has just built the crown of...
arkhainien? >_>
but you really want it.
you send in a shadow, and pay a vast sum of money for them to attempt to steal it, and if they fail, the AI has an option to declare war on you, sort of thing.
also, when they would grab it, under specific circumstances (say they didn't get away entirely cleanly) they could lose their invisible promotion and have to run back to your borders undefended.
I dunno, i think it would be cool. it would make you have to actually supply your national treasures with hawks and such, to make sure that thieves don't get at your bling.
