Scorpion 4 Cloaking

I'm the TO of my group, but I still like to play. Since I don't have to worry about winning, I often use the opportunity to experiment with the less popular cards and ships to see how they hold up.

Today we did Temporal Cold War 2 and I decided to bring the Scorpion Fighters with the cloaking upgrades. I knew this was a risk since most of the blinds have anti-fighter upgrades, but I didn't care.

In the last round, I was facing one player who was just really frustrated with his Ferengi Blind. Early in the game, I pointed out he had the Weapon Ports on there and could really mess up my fighters. He got more excited about it, but when his ship was finally in range of my fighters, I decided to cloak since I knew he was taking the shot. My four extra dice canceled his attack, leaving him feeling as frustrated as ever.

He went on to win the round, but I'll treasure the look on his face forever. Those fighters were a lot more annoying than people thought they'd be.
