I think There Is No Escape is amazing. If you play it during your opponent's Force phase, you can drop a few units into play and attack against an empty board. That wins games.

I agree with your assessment, Starhawk, but I think it's still a little weak. The ideal would have been if there was an action window after the Force phase begins but before the struggle happened. But according to the flowchart, there isn't. The action window in the Force phase happens just before the Force phase ends.

The card would have been much more viable if you could strip the board of lightside affiliated guys just before the struggle happens, to keep the Force with the DS for one more turn.

The big issue for me is that in order to use it you have to forego the imperial resource pods. I find motti's pod wins far more games than There is No Escape.

Which objective set is the resource objective set you refer to ?

Imperial Command is the set with Motti. It also comes with Orbital Bombardment, so it definitely lends itself to a more aggressive strategy. I prefer Heart and its combination of Defense Fleet, Force Stasis, and TINE, but I can understand why Tiny would opt for the extra resources.
