Well, since we can't get together and play this right now 
, I thought we could have a discussion about the new strategy cards and figure out which set to play with. Basically, they have produced a completely new set, yet they allow you to mix and match with the old set, to customize the game to your liking. First up is the replacement for #1 Initiative.
#1. Leadership: Take Charge
Primary Ability: Recieve 3 command counters from your reinforcements. You may then immediately use this cards secondary ability.
Secondary Ability: Masterful Tactician You may spend influence to purchase up to 3 command counters from your reinforcements.You recieve 1 command counter for every 2 influence you spend.
Original #1: Initiative
Special: After selecting this strategy card immediately claim the speaker token. During the action phase, you do not have to spend command counters from your Strategy Allocation area to execute the Secondary ability of Strategy cards. you may not select initiative during the next Strategy Phase.
So basically, this has moved the old logistics Strategy card up to the front of the line. Also the speaker token is now taken on a different Strategy card, so that effect is gone as well. Most signifigantly, no more freebies on the secondaries for the person that has initiative (although the effect may be negligible since the new card is giving you 3 free command counters)
What do you guys think? Do you prefer easier access to command counters? or do you prefer being a bit action starved?
