Rogue+Pete=8+ Gunboat every time!

From author:

Rogue choose Pete Wisdom and pete heals himself in encounter phase，your Gunboat Diplomacy status becomes already 8 (pete3/rogue2+3) without any other help. This is able to happen almost every time you have a Gunboat. Utopia gives you the chance to play the second 5+ Gunboat.

The status 8 can also be reached via Professor X and Gambit when he hits a 3. You can do your Gunboat business flexibly in this deck.

Things will get more crazy if Gambit and hits a 4. It becomes a 10(4+4+2) Gunboat.It's really cool but happens rarely in Expert II.

You can also include Mission Training & Heroic Intuition to boost more status if you like.
