Strategy

The starting effect for this deck is usually Yarna d'al' Gargan so you are protected from Monnok. Try to occupy two battlegrounds as quickly as possible so Yarna is immune to Alter.

The force generation for this deck is excellent, so you should be able to deploy a fearsome force in a short space of time.

Now, depending on your opponent, you decide to spread out and drain or overpower the dark side in battles.If you decide to do the latter, try to get organized attack, S-foils,and Draw Their Fire. Keep Houjix in your hand if you decide to spread.

This deck cancels force drains efficiently by the objective and It's a Hit and ICBW. Also if you decide to flip, make sure you have enough force so you can use ICBW to prevent the damage from Security Precautions.

The characters in this deck are very useful if your opponent spreads out too much. If they do this, beat them down with EPPs.

This deck has ways of going against the main dark strategies. There is transmission terminated for HDADTJ. Battle Plan is very useful against ISB and Operatives, as are EPPs. You may consider starting Battle Plan against ISB and Ops. Ultimatum is useful against insert decks by minimising damage from inserts. Also there is Do, Or Do Not to make your opponent lose force for their Sense and Alters.

Also remember to get All Wings Report In so you can get a bigger force differntial.

NB Flip the objective when you have depleted their space fleet or you have ICBW to prevent the damage from Security Precautions.
