    And the fact everything is sunk into that SpecOps means there are possibilities being ignored.

    Well I'm happy for you pro-players
    but most of my players in my area are new player to the game or have no idea of what is a jammer

    Then don't allow Spec Ops.

    Spec Ops is an advanced rule to spice things up for people who are finding regular ITS a little samey or when you want to add a narrative element to a tournament. It's not for dropping on a tournie where most of the players are new to the game and have no idea of what is a jammer.

    It's not balanced and nobody has ever pretended it is. There's no way to 'fix' it for regular play without basically overhauling the entire system. Unfortunately it’s a trap for young players :’(

    For the record, I thoroughly dislike Spec Ops in principle but I've enjoyed Spec Ops tournies because I knew what I was getting into.

    BTW: this is also true of Soldiers of Fortune. It is kinda true of Limited Insertion and Reduced Tactical Window as well, albeit less so.

    People have definitely pretended it is.

    Would you accept 'nobody reasonable' as my actual intent?

    I'd agree with you, but it's almost circular logic at that point :P
