Infamy - gained by strength of opponent not size.

I think privateering infamy gain is somewhat unfair. From the release notes, you gain infamy based on ship size. But ship size doesn't really determine how strong that ship is. In privateering, the weakest are often galleon and frigate class ships (which award the most infamy) while sloop class ships are strongest (but reward least infamy). The amount of infamy should be gained based on a ship's bounty/score which tells you how hard that ship is to defeat. Otherwise, players gain more infamy from sinking easy ships, and less sinking hard ships.
