COMBAT SYSTEMS
Force Powers & Squad Synergies
How the Star Wars layer changes tactical sequencing by creating openings for other operators.
The synergy pattern
Force abilities are most interesting when they change another operator's decision. Pulling an enemy from cover, creating a line of fire or forcing a reposition can be stronger than treating the Jedi as a solo damage dealer.
Sequence the squad
Scout the problem, create the opening, then cash it in with the operative who benefits most. The exact power costs and cooldowns remain launch verification items.
