expose is always a horrible option
there's no need to go crazy trying to spam thane with extra actions. Not only is it inefficient, but you're hoping your opponent routinely fires multiple shots at other ships while Thane has them in arc
I keep trying with Expose. I WANT to find a way to make it work.
I think there is a way to make spamming actions work. Oh, it might not be an insane amount of actions because it all depends on how many people can fire at someone in your arc. There are often only 3-4 ships in an enemy list. I do think you can throw in one or two Z-95's with Concussion Missiles and GC for not that many points. Let Thane dish out TL's while they have a Focus. What are the averages for Concussion Missile w/ GC and a Focus? I believe it's quite high. If these guys are then firing later in the turn, it could be nasty for aces.
There is also the possibility of going with an Adv. Proton Torpedo and using R7-T1 to give Thane a Boost to get in range. Maybe even a TL and a Boost if there are enough people firing at Biggs. If you are set up right and have someone close enough that you can Boost to be in R1, then you move up and lob that nasty Torp at the enemy in a turn. It is situational, but it can catch someone by surprise.
You want to keep him cheap and you can always go with a Flechette Torpedo for 2 pts. Have a Focus. Grab a TL. You fire 3 red dice and add a stress to someone. If it's the right someone, it can be pretty brutal if they are already stressed, such as an Ace who didn't think about it when firing at Biggs.
