So I played a casual game last night. The exact squad list does not matter as I was experimenting with cards I had not used before. The important part is that I ended up with a list of PS6 pilots, was at 100 Squad Points, and had not yet selected an Elite Upgrade for Vessery. I prefer to fly Squads with a single PS as I get to control the order of activation between them each round as I see fit, so I did not want to take Adaptability. A Score to Settle is a great card, but I wanted to try something different. That left Trick Shot, the only other free Elite Upgrade.
Colonel Vessery (35)
Trick Shot (0)
Tractor Beam (1)
Twin Ion Engine Mk. II (1)
TIE/D (0)
Total: 37

Picture this: An enemy ship is hiding behind an asteroid. Vessery adds one dice from Trick Shot to the Tractor Beam roll. The shot is fully modify due to his pilot ability and a focus token. If the shot hits (and odds are it will), Vessery pulls them onto the asteroid. He can now fire with his primary. If it is a large asteroid, there is a good chance Trick Shot will add an attack to the primary shot as well.
Has anyone else tried this?
