... by which I mean that we could have access to a Merc heavy with Drag soon. I think. Unless I'm stupidly forgetting an obvious rule preventing us from taking them (quite likely).
Under Raluk the Swabber can drag stuff from 16" away to be 8" away I think. So I was wondering, could this enable casters who are currently somewhat lacking in threat extensions to realistically run more jack-heavy? Does Sac-lamb finally have a use? DISCUSS!

Think Sorscha_0 is still a better threat extender.
Could be interesting to pull things off AoE effects or a contesting position.

Potentially huge point investment but drag can be really good (looks at loki)

Your OP has a real hook to it.

Could you please explain for the kids that are slow why Sac Lamb is important? It is still a BattleGroup spell.

Oh, I was just thinking that Sac Lamb feels like a bit of wasted opportunity on Z2 since she doesn't do anything for her jacks so you're probably not going to be running many of them, but now that you can jacks into heavies that used to be almost 16" inches away (possibly more if you chain drags from multiple Swabbers?) then maybe there's an argument to be made for taking several beater jacks in her battlegroup? Guess not since you probably won't take more than one Swabber, two at the most if you're playing themeless, so you still won't really need to fuel more than two of your own battlegroup warjacks, meaning Sac Lamb still doesn't do very much... guess I'm the slow kid.
