mrjohngilbert 0 Posted January 12, 2016 This card says: place a satellite here, move 1 unit from its reserve to the board or from the board to its reserve. In a youtube video, the players were using this to basically recruit the "dead" soldiers and interceptors - moving them from the holding boxes in the middle of the "board" to the respective reserves. Is this allowed? It certainly makes the game massively easier - it is like five or six extra income each turn! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rmsgrey 22 Posted January 12, 2016 No, this is definitely not allowed - I can't find it in the rules/FAQ, but, as you observed, it makes the game massively easier, effectively makes the option to spend credits on recruitment obsolete, and removes almost all the cost of losing recruitable units - it actually makes moderate losses there less painful than losing Scientists/Satellites. The obvious purpose of Mission Control is as a safety valve - letting you pull back units to avoid a budget overrun, or adjust unit assignments to react to a late threat. It also lets you pull soldiers off the Mission if it wasn't completed last round. It's not there to let you resurrect all your dead units every round. 1 CommissarFeesh reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
