You will like the idea when you lose a 7 VP titian to a 3 VP squad, and then
not even get a chance to shoot at his death strikes before they leave the
table, NOW, that giving up the VPs when firing the missiles seems somewhat
fair. For if you don't shoot his death strikes you get nothing, and he gets
7VPs.
