It's tough. Expose is the victim of early pricing methods and too high of an opportunity cost in practice. You pay 4 squad points, but then you also have to spend your action, which you need for a focus/lock so that extra die will deal more damage. If you don't have dice modification, this card actually weakens your average damage -- 3 dice with focus is ~2.25 damage, while 4 dice without focus is ~2.0 damage.

Giving yourself extra actions or free focus/lock tokens with various effects could work: Experimental Interface, K4 Security Droid or Systems Officer (ally), etc. But that's a lot of investment.

It's funny though to put on a Decimator, which is unaffected by -1 agility, and suport it with an officer-carrying ally. I've also seen a joke fleet of "PerverTIEs", which is "Youngster" with Expose surrounded by TIE buddies exposing themselves to the enemy. ;)

But it's not a very effective card, overall.
