We all know that sub males cant breed. many of us, due to lack of funding, are waiting months for their king to finally retire, in order to make a stud out of a better male. this wait is frustrating, especially to those of us who use both allowed accounts for projects and cannot "freeze" males.
there have been many suggestions of allowing sub males to stud. what I'm offering is a bit different.

say you have a female in heat.
say you also have a dreary king, and a beautiful heir as a sub.

the sub male will have an option to "sneak" to the female a set amount of times each day of her heat. say- 5 times a day. he will try to breed her. there will be a chance, a small chance, that is, that he wont be discovered and chased away by the king. it means that there will be only a small chance of a male actually breeding a female successfully.
that way, a player will have a chance to get more veriaty and use their heir before he becomes king, but the population of cubs wont overflow, because there is little chance of success.

if it is required, a fee can be involved as well. a fee per try, thus creating an SB sink of the game.

another option is that there would be a penalty to "getting caught". maybe hunger goes down, or a delay in sub patrol ("your lion is injured and cannot patrol again for an additional hour")

this option will also decrease the number of chased males, encouraging players to buy more sub slots.

I'm curious to hear your opinions on such an arrangement and suggestions for its improvement.

maybe it could be random? at rollover, you could get a message like

"you return to your pride to find one of your lionesses pregnant, but you didn't breed with them! you're going to need to have a talk with [sub male]."

it would be a rare event, to prevent this feature from being abused

To be honest I think that you should just be able to plain breed(but not stud) sub males, in the wild it is possible for more than one dominant male to rule a pride, although rare this usually happens when a group of male related male lions take over/start a pride and never kick each other out.

I will give you my support for now though.

I don't like this idea at all. No support from me. Only kings can breed. Sub males cannot.
