[A21-25] Acidichloride to Adaptive Interface Link

Another round of dream cards for the Star Trek Collectible Card Game, resurrected from the late 90s and given graphics for the first time. Still in the A's of the Star Trek Encyclopedia, which seems to be particularly technical...

THE ENTRIES:
[21] acidichloride
[22] active-scan navigation
[23] adanji
[24] adaptive heuristic matrix
[25] adaptive interface link

NOTES:
[21] Benzites are immune to the gas thanks to their rebreathers.
[22] "Starship Down" has the Defiant crew use echolocation to spot other ships.
[23] "Fire cards" include Firestorm, Plasma Fire, Fire Sculptor and Duranja, among others.
[24] Makes holographic Away Teams and crews trickier to use.
[25] Players get their cards back when the game ends. This one was a victim of too-long game text, so the lore got a big hit.

Next: How do we get AtoZ cards into play legally, anyway?

Cards: Acidichloride Gas, Active-Scan Navigation, Adanji, Adaptive Heuristic Matrix, Adaptive Interface Link

By Inferno's Light Virtual Pack

I didn't do this for EVERY letter, but the first few AtoZ "expansions" had working booster packs of 15 cards, sorted like so: 11 commons (of 112 possibilities), 3 uncommons (of 117 possibilities) and 1 rare (of 107 possibilities). Which means that every time you refresh this page, you will get a different distribution of cards! Makes a nice palate cleanse before heading into the Encyclopedia's C's. Note that Enhanced By Inferno's Light would have been 5 special packs with set card lists, and B's Broken Links would have come in a 40-page box, so those cards aren't in the booster. 

Broken Links [BL-B26-30] Species 8472 to The Net

More Broken Links... This time: 8472! BROKEN LINKS: [26] Species 8472 [27] Strike! [28] Baseball personnel [29] Ten-Forward [30] The Net NOTES:   [26] Needed to staff Bioships [B+49] and support all those 8472 infiltrators. In personnel battle, hand weapons don't count against them, they can't be negatively affected by Equipment cards. I almost made them unable to mix, but they definitely worked with Voyager a few times, so I've just made it more difficult to do so. Source: "Prey" [27] The card can be nullified by Bunt [B+74]. You either continue without effect, lose a personnel, or get stopped, but a "Ball" result may lose you some cards from the deck.

Enterprise-D personnel are those that specifically reference the ship in their lore. Other ...

Apocalypse Rising Virtual Pack

I didn't do this for EVERY letter, but the first two AtoZ "expansions" had working booster packs of 15 cards, sorted like so: 11 commons (of 100 possibilities), 3 uncommons (of 100 possibilities) and 1 rare (of 113 possibilities). Which means that every time you refresh this page, you will get a different distribution of cards! Makes a nice palate cleanse before heading into the Encyclopedia's B's. Note that Enhanced Apocalypse Rising would have been 4 special packs with set card lists, and A's Broken Links would have come in a 40-page box, so those cards aren't in the booster.
