You could burn the asset to make ~~it fail~~ edit: the plot succeed, which you might want to do if you were the terrorist mole. It seems highly unlikely to me given how carefully you curated the cards to pass by one, but the option exists if you want to use it. ---

OK, @RossM please let me know your conditions for burning Lynne. For this one I’m assuming you don’t. 1 point on the Agency track. RossM as case lead gets 1 Rep + exposure, and 2 Intel cards. Imminent-3: Case lead: DJCT General Danesh Akbari / Cairo Hijacking Special: - Forced Suspension: Case Lead: Pay 2 Rep or Deactivate your Assets (DJCT has no face-up assets and can’t afford the rep anyway.) Intel: - Media Attention (-1) - Anonymous Tip (1) Sophistication 3 + Complexity 6 = target 9 Intel card values (-1, 0, 1) = intel 0 Impact 2 Burning Lynne will make no difference to this. Assussanni spends a soldier to activate William Walden: Once per Terrorist Turn, you may discard a Soldier to lower the Impact of a Threat by 1 1 point on the terrorist track. Everyone gets 1 Clout. Fallout: Case Lead must discard a Soldier or Burn an Asset DJCT has no Soldiers, but also no face-up Assets. Imminent-5: Case lead: Chewy77 Lone Wolf / Moscow Sniper Attack Intel: - Full Background Check (1) Sophistication 0 + Complexity 7 = target 7 Intel card values (1) = intel 1 Impact 1 Again, Lynne can’t help here. 1 Terrorist track point, 1 Clout for everyone. And finally Imminent-6: Case lead: DJCT Majid Javadi / Agency Server Breach Intel: - Intercepted Intel (3) - Suicide Bombing (-3) - Search Warrant (2) Sophistication 3 + Complexity 5 = target 8 Intel card values (-3, 2, 3) = intel 2 Impact 2 Again no effect from Lynne. 2 more terrorist points, 2 more clout all round. DJCT’s assets and intel cards are exposed. ---

@RogerBW To check my understanding: Chewy can take up to three soldiers if they want due to their asset? And did the Fallout from Imminent-5 and Imminent-6 do nothing? I didn’t see it listed, but might have missed it. ---

Ooh. If Chewy can get soldiers and I get one we can air strike on each of the next two turns. ---

Yes, Chewy gets 3 soldiers from the 3 successful plots. Imminent-5 fallout was “case lead must discard a soldier [done] or burn an Asset” (combined with the above means Chewy has 3 soldiers total). Imminent-6 was Case Lead Exposure for DJCT, which is why you can see their cards above. ---

If I can do it this way I can recruit a soldier and put it on imminent 2. Claim imminent 4. Put \* Interagency Cooperation / (2) / 1 Clout on that and - Search Warrant / (2) / 1 Clout on imminent 3 ---

Awesome. If chewy puts 2 soldiers on any other threat we can drone strike 2 of the 4 this turn and load at least one of the others with good cards. ---

That complexity is quite high. Is anyone else planning to contribute Intel to Imminent-1 or are we willing to accept that we probably won’t thwart it?
