the first of these is by several flavors of Protecting targets (these do NOT print a success at roundend in keeping with Spy design:)
the second of this is by a new escape condition:

Why It's Good For The Game
More goofy and weird prompts to do more interesting things with Spies. One thing I think we're sorely missing in our lineup is antagonists that can act a bit more as deuteragonists - very possibly helping the crew under certain conditions and frustrating the Hell out of them in others.
Since there's no way to check their objectives, and they get their gear/progression through stealing shit, they're still very much an antagonist and exist under the suspicion of doing bad... but, just going by their objectives, introducing more varied (and in some cases even benign) goals for them creates suggestions pointing to a lot more varied and interesting stories if people choose to run with it.
Changelog
🆑 Higgin
balance: Spies can now get five additional types of objective: Protect Human, Protect Nonhuman, Detain, Jailbreak, and Escape (Exile).
balance: Spy objectives now feature a much wider array of targets and treatments.
refactor: added no_failure var to objectives. Objectives with no_failure = TRUE do not print a success at roundend. Custom objectives use this now instead of a separate string.
