Electronic Baffle + Deadman's Switch = ?

By Hiemfire, in X-Wing

Has anyone given this combo a go? I'm planning on having it in my list for a game against a friend tomorrow and am curious if anyone has tested it and what their thoughts on the combo are.

I.e. take them both on zs, and lock each other to detonate at some point in the future?

It's a neat interaction but it's a lot of points to spend on an effect that is pretty unlikely to actually trigger, over just using DMS, or... just nothing.

lock each other?

is a lock considered a red token? i always thought it was some weird "exception" to all the tokens.
edit:

"An object is locked while it has at least one lock token assigned to it. Lock tokens are red tokens ..."

well...i'll be...baffles just got a bit more interesting to me.

Yep. Wasn't how I was looking to use the combo though it does open up some options.

Are the red crit tokens considered baffle-able red tokens ?

Edit: Ah it is not diamond shaped so not a red token as per rules reference.

No, and even if they were, taking the token off doesn't take the effect off.
