Things that should really seem obvious in retrospect

By PhantomFO, in X-Wing

I haven't actually done this, but the 2-point Whisper crew thread got me thinking about Agent Kallus. That got me thinking about who I'd declare if I faced one of these new swarms that's popping up. And that got me thinking, "Hm. Should I declare Omega Leader as my target for Kallus?"

It took me another second or two to remember why that was possibly the worst idea.

Lol. Avoided a brain dead moment there!

It would certainly be a way to dictate where Omega Leader puts the target lock...

Depending on what makes up the rest of each squad, it might not actually be too bad an idea to have Whisper choose Omega Leader as Kallus's target.

- At PS9, Whisper is likely to get at least one attack before Omega Leader can get a Target Lock on Whisper.

- Having Kallus target Omega Leader almost forces your opponent to lock Whisper instead of other ships that are more likely to be attacked by Omega Leader.

Which might not be the worst investment of two points.

Do it anyways. Then tell them you don't need it. Intimidation.
