Wow! Those look quite fun to try out. I have a feeling Torch might be worth 20-22 points, but 17 might be fine. I like that it’s not a 50/50 “all or nothing” roll on the attack, since you could still shoot the 3S’s at targets within range if you miss the big roll. For a very niche use case, since it’s not a shot you could use it to finish off some ships in your own fleet if you were trying to reach an endgame condition faster. (especially since the L+L away might put some ships onto reefs/etc as well)
That L+L away effect could be almost cataclysmic in some of our most crowded campaign game battlefields. Would be epic to see it maybe clear the way for something new to surge forth, such as a whirlpool raid….
