This desk revolves around advancing ICE with the Weyland constellation suite and still using those advancement tokens once they're out via Trick of Light / Constellation Protocol.

Using the ID, the Root, Space Camp and Builder provides plenty of drip economy to keep the counters flowing. Constellation/Trick lets you score agendas fast. The Board ensures your 1-point agendas don't represent a serious threat if your opponent gets going faster than you.

Swordsman is in here specifically to counter AI breakers like Eater, which is going to be seriously popular post-O&C release, and to synergize with ICE like Orion which lets you trigger other ICE's subroutines.
