Also, Fubuki, your two statements kinda contradict themselves. You say Thwackdrill is better than Procyon, despite his very low power, but Ogre with 5 times more power isn't strong enough? I'd rather say, Ogre has at least the chance to clear the center and deal penetrate damage (even if a link attack is required), while Thwackdrill always will need a wallbreaker and does nothing for link attacks.

Furthermore, in my experience, penetrate and double attack make a pretty good team. Double Attack has the problem, that it needs an open center to make full use of its potential (cards designed for monster destruction aside). Penetrate, on the other side, is made for center cleaning and even using it in a link attack doesn't matter, because it will deal damage either way. That may not help to reach the attack limit of the Empire (which isn't that high for most cards, exept for that bonkers new Impact), but is generally more destructive.
