Value depends on whom you're fighting.

Might be really irritating from Niefelheim's perspective to deal with B9 Jaguar Warriors, for instance, simply because horror mark + curse are more obnoxious to numerically few melee SCs. B9D9 would be even more annoying -- affliction swarming.

B9 flags, vs Man longbow hordes? Meh, not a big deal for the longbowmen so long as there's a screen to slow down the flags. Slaughter away.
