Me and a friend where discussing about a recent post about where you need to use cards that have the same pod numbers that match, so you cant use dagobah training grounds from pod 2 in if your only using pod one. yet we discuessed then the idea of how we try to throw your opponent off his game useing the affliation card, only a few limited pods have affiliation only, (currently assumeing that the smugglers and scum are generally played as affiliation only for most players). There are crrently no rules saying your affiliation card has to match any of the pods in your deck.
so as the sets currently are at the moment includeing the current hoth pack there is no reason as to why a player would have to have a affiliation card that matchs, its always helpful for resource matching but could have a large affect with messing with your opponent.
What are other peoples opinions on this?
