Strategy cards a musthave?

By Dogma79, in Tide of Iron

Is it allowed to draw no Strategy cards ín the Status Phase?

I'm thinking of avoiding the sabotage cards...

Interesting question. I guess you're supposed to draw them, but it might sometimes indeed make sense NOT to draw them. Another nice question for the FAQ.

page 16 of the core rules:

"In order of initiative, each player draws one Strategy card from
any one of the Strategy card decks in his HQ area"

so there is no may -> no choice, I think!

And I gues your not suppose to know about the sabotage?

I agree. You draw cards, period.

It's also possible to place the Sabotage card on a shared deck, trigger it yourself by drawing from that deckresolve the effect on the enemy (if specified in the text). All in all it's almost impossible to avoid the Sabotage effects ...some of them are very nice indeed!
