	The Experiment: Take a deck off of Decipher's Deck Review BBS, build it as is (no matter how tempting it was to tweak it), play test it and give it a full review. What follows is a completely unapologetic review of the experiment. Those with weak hearts should not enter. The Deck: The Super Cool Fed Deck designed by Frank Black Seed Deck (30+6) Doorways (2): Q's Tent Temporal Microwormhole Missions (6): Repair Mission Explore Dyson Sphere Restore Errant Moon Reported Activity Test Mission II Espionage Mission Nice selection, tight on skills and short on span numbers making navigation of the spaceline much easier (which would be very important in the game I tested it in). Facilities and Other (8): Office of the President Although 5 in the deck could report here free, I made much better use of its normal report function. Visit Cochrane Memorial I suspect the designer thought Starfleet Type I Phasers (5 in the deck) would be a download result, but unfortunately, this card has a Federation icon on it and so, must be used for the card draw function instead. I would have also liked to have seen some more equipment to take advantage of the download probe on the Memorial. Otherwise, this deck would be virtually unplayable without the Memorial. Cybernetics Expertise A truly nice card. The ability to retrieve an android from the discard pile can be a life saver. Defend Homeworld Assign Mission Specialists Assign Support Personnel The designer lists Amaros as the download target, but he does not match any of the ships or facilities in the deck. Fortunately, Fleet Admiral Shanthi does, so this did not become a completely wasted seed. Q the Referee There are a great number of Referee icon cards in the Tent. Some should have been placed in the draw deck to make use of the card drawing function. Quark's Isolinear Rods Q's Tent contents (12): Containment Field In the Zone Feedback Surge Scanner Interference Reactor Overload Writ of Accountability No Ferengi FCA in the deck, no way to use this. Make it So This was apparently only include because Picard could download it. Without a Battle Bridge side deck or Ready Room Door and Captain's Orders cards, the number of uses were extremely limited (to a total of one, unstopping the ship, which I never used, but definitely could have come in handy. Not really worth taking up a Tent slot though). HQ: Secure Homeworld Only 2 ways to get this, Jaresh or a download probe at the Memorial (which I decided to do instead of waiting to draw Jaresh). I would have preferred to see this seeded so I could jump on attempting Earth sooner. Ocular Implants Fantastic card!! Not only do you get a heads up on dilemmas, but Geordi can entertain the other crew members with tricks while visiting the Memorial :) The Big Picture B'Elanna Torres (Quark's Isolinear Rods) This would have been a great strategy for jump-starting the Memorial and playing androids for free (I got several in my opening hand), but there was no seeded ship or anyway to download a ship (except through a Memorial download probe) to report her via the Temporal Microwormhole. Fortunately, I drew Miles in my opening hand, but I ended up having to wait to draw a ship before I could report her. Then I had to wait another turn to start playing androids for free, because moving her to the Outpost advanced me to the Execute Orders phase. A Spacedoor and Universal ship would have gotten the ball rolling on this strategy by turn 3 (turn 2 with a card play probe at the Memorial). Implication Card # 13? I thought of all kinds of cards that would have been great for the 13th slot. Things that didn't come up were Operate Wormhole Relays and Temporal Vortex. Things I wished I had during certain points in the game were Space-time Portal, Oof! (boy did I absolutely need an Oof! this game), and the Phoenix (for 10 pts to the Office of the Prez.-if I had gotten Reported, I would have had 99 pts, and I could have gotten Reported if I had Oof!). Dilemmas (20): Planet- Clown my Festival Your Galaxy is Impure Hanonian Land Eel Neat combo with an interesting lead in. At most a 1 turn staller. Edo Probe Volcanic Eruption Founder Secret No wall at the start. This combo counts on your opponent not being able to pass Founder Secret, which isn't that tough of a dilemma nowadays with all the hand weapons and big personnel like the Hirogen running around. This simply has a 50-50 chance of stalling for a single turn. Space- Hippocratic Oath Tarellian Plague Ship Hull Breach Barclay's Protomophosis Disease This combo worked like a charm. The problem? There was no starting wall to lure in mission solving victims. I would lead this with Lack of Preparation. The Cloud A Fast Ship Would be Nice Emergency Conversion Nice idea for this combo. Space/Planet- Ferengi Infestation The Clown: Playing Doctor Chula: The Chandra Alien Parasite/R.E.M. Fatigue While this combo did end up working, there was no pay off with the Alien Parasites. I had no Space-Time Portal to return the ship to opponent's hand or no killer wall to run his personnel into to pick them off. One item of note though, don't seed this under the Homeworld mission unless you have a way to attempt the mission. Even if I had the killer wall, it wouldn't have done me any good. Unscientific Method Kelvin Show of Force Scientific Method This worked perfectly. My opponent had to scrounge for Science most of the game to get past this. Good combo. Draw Deck (58) Personnel (26): Data (FC) Geordi La Forge(FC) Gotta love Geordi and his eyeballs. Deanna Troi (The Borg) Jean-Luc Picard (FC) Benjamin Sisko Jadzia Dax (Deep Space 9) Julian Bashir Miles O'Brien (Blaze of Glory) Jaresh-Inyo What a great guy! Better than Clinton or Bush!! And having Law as his 3rd skill? A total life saver! If you ever doubted this guy, play a game with Fightin' Words out and then hit Implication. Ambassador Krajensky Admiral Ross Luther Sloan Say it with me now, "It good that Sloan can report anywhere." Very good class. You get 10 extra bonus points. George Primin Lightner Admiral JP Hanson I can't believe I used this guys skill and to good use too. Great personnel if you need just that extra bit of Range (provided by a brand new ship to boot) to make it too a far away mission. And he provides all the skills for HQ: Secure Homeworld by himself (just add attributes for extra flavor). Can this guy get any better? Oh, he reports for free to the Office of the Prez! Fleet Admiral Shanthi Lal Dr. Soong Soong-type Android x4 Bad probe results, but extremely useful. The best and worst of both worlds for this deck. Elizabeth Lense Narik (Assign Mission Specialists) Joe Carey (Assign Mission Specialists) Amaros (Assign Support Specialist) As noted above, this guy can not be reported to the ships or facilities currently in this deck. Best bet, add spacedoor and a universal Non-Aligned ship, giving a place for both him and B'Elanna to report too earlier in the game. Ships (4): U.S.S. Enterprise-E U.S.S. Thunderchild U.S.S. Defiant U.S.S. Sao Paulo If the Spacedoor isn't added, at least 2 more ships will be needed to get one out early. I wouldn't count on Memorial probes for something this important. Equipment (10): Kukalaka Pretty much in here because its a download probe on Memorial and Bashir can download it. For the most part the Feds don't need the Integrity boost. Although it could have helped Sloan survive the Firestorm so he was around to pass In The Pale Moonlight. Starfleet Type III Phaser Rifle Tricorder Ablative Armor Nanoprobes Starfleet Type I Phaser x5 As said above, I think these were mistakenly added for download probes though they only work for card draw probes. A shame since they report for free. Events (5): Kivas Fajo-Collector Many more of these would have worked better, since it is a card play probe. Probing one would've let you play another from hand, greatly improving the deck's card drawing power. The Traveler: Transcendence x3 No problem here, especially in such a large deck. Plus, the extras can be used for discard probes on the Memorial. Regenerate Interrupts (11): All Threes A single one isn't worth the deck space. I'd toss it. Palor Toff I would add a few more of these or remove this single one and focus more on Nanoprobes or Mutations (see Nanoprobes below). Remember the Alamo x2 Both of these should be ditched. Most people won't attack at your homeworld if you keep at least one Hidden Agenda or Q the Referee. And killing one Security? They just come back in swarms later on. Mutation Maybe just as handy as the Palor Toffs. See Nanoprobe Resuscitation below. The Power x4 Nice card drawing, but needs more Nanoprobe Resuscitations to make them worthwhile. I'd get rid of all of these and replace with 4 more KFCs at least or add 2 more Nanoprobe Resuscitations. Nanoprobe Resuscitation x 2 Ok, this is a toughie. I would go with about 5 Palor Toffs OR 5 Mutations OR 5 Nanoprobe Resuscitations. OR a mix of 2 of one and 3 of another, but I suggest not bothering with all 3. Incident (2): Handshake x2 Great for probe rigging, but there should be alot more than 2 to really help out. Designer's Strategy Note: OK, there are no Q's Tent doors in this deck because they are bad probes. The plan is to download B'Elanna with Quark's Isolinear Rods and report her with Temporal Microwormhole, this enables free reporting of androids from the first turn. My Assign Mission Specialists and Assign Support Personnel people have the skills to complete Repair Mission and Explore Dyson Sphere by themselves, this enables me to start attempting missions sooner. Overall it was an effective deck that needs a bit of polishing to speed it up. While against a deck with similar speed it mostly held its own, this deck would get left behind by DQSS or a focused battle strategy. For fun games this is a good deck, but it wouldn't even get memorialized at a competitive tournament. Brian Huff a.k.a. the fish livingston_tf51@hotmail.com
