Best resistance squad?
With the release of bb-8 I'm also curious what the best resistance squad is now. Does he take someone's place or is he more for the droid lovers?

I'm hoping there's some future synergy that will make BB8 really good, but unfortunately, I'm not seeing it right now.
If using Covert Data Transfer gave tm to all resistance/droids based on how many allies had Secret Intel, not just BB8, then he might be pretty decent. It wouldn't make him a Thrawn or DN or CLS, not by a long shot. But it would give Resistance a backup tm engine, albeit much slower than their Finn zeta expose engine. And they really need a backup, secondary thing going for them, because right now, they've got flat out nothing if they're not getting tons of extra turns. And half the mechanics in the game easily interrupt their TM abuse.
Also, 70 turn cooldown?? I mean... maybe there's something coming down the line that will synergize and make this easier to use, but right now it seems crazy for an ability that's nowhere near as strong as Annihilate.
Maybe a future character will have a 20% chance to expose an enemy each turn for each ally that has Secret Intel or something.
