No, I don't think tags have worked for as long as I've been a member on this forum.
It is a bit of a risk, but the set is good enough to make up for it. I always found it strange that it is a nuetral set though, since everything in the set is clearly part of the imperial navy haha.
I think the deck suffers without sabotage, since it gives some really good backbone to the deck type
Have you had it flop out while Tarkin Doc is out? I'm just wondering.
Enjoyed the cast as always. Keep up the great work.
Oh, the reason I included Enforced Loyalty in the trooper deck suggestion was to add to the theme of doing indirect damage to the LS objectives, just like troopers do when they leave play and Imperial Discipline is out. Also you get Control Rooms for resources. It's a shame the two main sets that seem natural to include in a trooper deck (Family Connections and Emperor's Legion) don't come with any resources.
Thanks everyone, and that is the problem I have also been having Yodaman, the resources for troopers are pretty tight. That's another reason why I think Dark Trooper Project is so important. I'll have to try your build with Enforced Loyalty, it looks awesome!
