These cards are extremely versatile and can almost always help add to your force drain or lessen your opponents.
Here's how.
If you're getting Force drained for 3 or more (the more the better) at any site, deploy a talz/stormtrooper/x-wing/tie or other similar low deploy card. You will then block the force drain on your opponents turn. He/she will then have to spend a Force to initiate (mabye more if he targets weapons, etc.). You merely lose the one card and the Houjix/Ghhhk. Thus, if he/she was going to Force drain for five you would instead lose only the Houjix and character.
Another great use for these cards is the following. Pick a remote spot (a site with no adjacent areas) where you can Force drain for one or, if possible, two. If you have a spy, look for a 2/0 Force site (war room). Deploy a character there. Your opponent will be forced to deploy characters to block the Force drain and then battle you. When he/she does, lose your two cards. He/she has used up a good deal of Force killing your character and has now stranded (barring a Nabrun/Elis) one or more characters on this remote site. If it is a 2/0 site then he/she can't force drain either.
These cards are also a must if you use undercover spies. If your opponent Alters your Undercover effect, you will most likely be caught with just one card defending against a rather large group. Without the Houjix/Ghhk cards you could lose a good deal of Force.
Combos
- Houjix + BG-J38 Adds 2 to the destiny of each of your holograms and dejariks drawn for battle destiny or weapon destiny.[2]
Rulings
- Cards that cannot be forfeited (such as a character not participating in battle, or a Vaporator) do not prevent a player from canceling all remaining battle damage.[2]
