Yep, you'll find it plays a lot different. Only in large games will you
find
squads getting activated more than twice. (Technically speaking, they
are NOT
activated more than once, but that's sort of how everyone thinks about
it.)
Unlike FT, where a ship is activated once and firing on it is often less
productive than firing on an unactivated ship, in SG you often DO tend
to
target a squad that's already fired (and have to, all things being even,
due
to the rules for target selection). Choosing what to re-activate and
when to
use your command squad to do it is an important decision in SG2.
