Battle Plan is a Light Effect from Endor.

Card Text

Deploy on table. You may initiate battles for free. Also, for either player to initiate a Force drain, that player must first use 3 Force unless that player occupies a battleground site (except a holosite) and a battleground system. (Immune to Alter.)

Lore

Even though the landing of the stolen shuttle was successful, the Rebel strike team on Endor was forced to rethink their plans when Leia disappeared.


Strategy

By Joe Alread (joea@decipher.com)[1]

Battle Plan takes the concept of balanced decks to a whole new level. For a player to have to use 3 Force to Force drain you somewhere is a large expense, and 3 Force that could have been used somewhere else. This hits hardest against those trying to drain you fast at a lot of ground locations, such as with an Operative deck or an ISB "drop and drain" type of deck. Conceptually, if your Force draining for free while your opponent isn't, you should definitely have the edge. The price? Some deck balance.
