I really like the idea here and all, but really how practical is it other than to boost Cracken (a single card)? Especially when Scum have some amazing bonuses for having captured cards...
It's not that much of a downside in the right deck. You obviously wouldn't want to include 2x of this in a Mains deck, but if you're running a swarmier style with fewer critical cards, having 3 of them captured isn't a huge deal.
Also, you pick where they go, so you don't have to place them where a Scum player could benefit. You could also for example put a bunch at Slave Trade, where you know you'll get them back if you win the force struggle, or load up a single objective so you get a nice bunch of cards when you destroy it.
It also plays nice with Rescue Mission in this set. Tuck a big unit during the flop and then rescue it for two resources any time you have an action window.
I will play Fleeing the Empire + Planning the Rescue deck. Should be fun.
And this set has just gotten better and better... With the smugglers self-capture set and the boost that rebels got from Galactic Ambitions, this set is finding a home as its own archetype...
You can split them up.
