Which says more about the pitifully slow build up (causes, many) of the Lightning Force. It is important, because it is the first time the chockheads will have to really work the deck. There is a significant difference in spotting and operating even with just six additional.

Won't do the OCU any harm to experience a really busy deck and I suspect, a really busy exercise environment.
