Oh no, not a two star at all. It certainly works on friendlies, which makes it much better than Suggestion if you want to move friendly loot haulers or even force a hostile one (and the loot they're carrying) to get closer to pursuers. Fling is a whole different kettle of fish, requiring your officer to get very close (even adjacent for hostiles) to its target rather than manipulating positioning at a safer distance and being resisted by Fight, which is almost always a higher stat than Will is (at least on soldiers - NPC vary more) and makes the de facto chance of success lower on average. Unless your table is very heavy on terrain that's .51" or greater in height it's at least a three, and arguably a four star. Also worth noting that the required Will roll makes Re-Wired robot soldiers better targets than they'd be normally, so keep an eye for them.
You make a some good points Rich. I like your perspective on Fight vs Will for resistance rolls. I do like it’s variety of uses, I would just usually pick other Powers for those functions.
Thanks for the video
You’re welcome, thanks for watching!
I would have said maybe 3.5 stars, but you make good points that other movement powers are better
Yeah for me it just comes down to other options I like more.
