Hive Pressure

Flood the board with Swarms and reach Hive Dynamics’ three- and six-Nanobot thresholds. Mad Honey adds defense and Overrun for the decisive attack. Messenger finds Xandra; play her only when you can pay the additional cost of running two Nanobots. Her sacrifice ability controls characters, not players, and your own sacrifices do not trigger Hive Dynamics’ opponent-destruction clause. Keep early Nanobots rather than neutral answers alone. The Hive is symmetrical. The twenty Swarms use the printed cyberdeck-copy exception; the current app incorrectly flags this copy limit, so expect a validation warning after import.
