I play with at least two or three sabotages in my deck just because killing of there resources quickly at the beggining of the game is one of the best ways to stop them. Some decks I have made contained up to 10 sabotages in a 40 card deck. Basically I am saying that thinking of the throckmorton device as a clock would ultimately be wrong because you can just sabotage it. Sabotage is one of my favorite cards bye the way.

Which is why any deck which depends on the Throck Clock should have Intelligence Contacts. Kieth Baker (a subscriber to this list) had a tournament deck that was almost entirely Angela Reyes, Throck Devices, Intelligence Contacts, Smear Campaigns, and Rampages... =-=-=-= Trevor Stone =-=-= aka Flwyd =-=-= tstone @ robin . ml . org =-=-=-= Eclectic philosopher, New Vista computer admin, gamer, witster, esotericist http://robin.ml.org/~tstone/ Thou bawdy shrill-gorged scut!

IMHO, Orders from Tomorrow is the best Throckmorton card there is aside from the device.
