[A36-45] Aeon to Airponics Bay

Another round of dream cards for the Star Trek Collectible Card Game, resurrected from the late 90s and given graphics for the first time. We get away from missions, for once...

THE ENTRIES:
[36] Aeon
[37] Agamemnon, USS
[38] Age of Ascension
[39] Age of Decision
[40] Ah-Kel

NOTES:
[36] Can't rescue personnel stuck in Time Locations, but good for pot shots like possibly shooting down opponent's Phoenix (takes some work for the Federation), or returning with a different pilot.
[37] Jean-Luc Picard is NOT matching commander. I eventually did something with fleets, but I'm not sure when that comes up.
[38] A mini-Reflection Therapy with flavor.
[39] The Age of Decision is a Talarian rite of passage signalling the majority for a Talarian male at 14 years. I've abandoned Trek Sense in this case. In case of a match of champions, personnel must get to location on their own steam and are not even forced to do so. If one player never sends a champion, the mission may never be solved or scouted.
[40] Ah-Kel and Ro-Kel would be wrapped into a dual-personnel in the Holodeck Adventures expansion, and separately in 2nd edition. I got very little "correct", but the one thing I did fix on my card is that I had originally thought the twins were native to the Gamma Quadrant. I've seen the episode "Vortex" many times since, and I no longer believe this to be the case, so I didn't include the icon on my version either. Here are those cards for comparison:

I hope you're still enjoying these!

And now: New card types!

THE ENTRIES:
[41] Ahab, Captain (already exists in game)
[42] Ahjess
[43] Ailis pâté
[44] airlock (already exists in game)
[45] airponics bay

NOTES:
[41] The concept already exists in the game as First Contact expansion's Don't Call Me Ahab dilemma.
[42] I took the stasis immunity from a joke about Dead in Bed. Ahjess makes sure you're not. This was the hardest picture to figure out since I don't think we've ever seen Trill children that I could have sourced. So I modified Gray's face to make it even more youthful, and I think it works; he looks different enough to me. Since Lela was Dax's first host, I decided she and her family were from before Trill joined the Federation. That should be correct. (Source: "Facets")
[43] Food cards are something the Encyclopedia forced me to invent (looooooots of entries). They work like this: They may report to any Mess Hall, Quark's Bar, Ten-Forward or Replimat for free as long as personnel are there to upkeep them. You can never have more than one Food card per personnel present at that site. When personnel leave, choose an equal number of Food cards to return to your hand. Food cards can have Quadrant icons (if you want fresh ingredients, though I imagine a Replicator card - never made - could allow a player to ignore such requirements). I had to redesign the Food icon because the original (see below) was never meant for graphics this size and quality, opting for something more elegant. Hope you like Neelix's recipe.

[44] The concept already exists in the game as Deep Space Nine expansion's Airlock doorway.
[45] A first Food card augment and a good place for me to explain Ship Sites. Ship Sites can be played just like Nor Sites during the seeding phase. Since no ships exist yet, they are simply played on the table. When a ship reports for duty, you may move any or all of your seeded Sites to it. You can also play compatible Sites to a ship from your hand as your normal card play. The term Starship has been adopted to mean any ship with staffing icons. Shuttles, Runabouts, Freighters and Scout Ships are not Starships. Neither are Gomtuu and the Vulcan Lander who require special staffing not expressed as icons. It has regardless been ruled that the Phoenix is not a Starship. Starships are divided into the following sections: Bridge-Saucer section or Forward section-Engineering section. The cards can name specific Starships, of course, as it does here for Voyager. I note here that Kes hadn't yet been made into a card when I had designed this. (Source: "Cold Fire")

I hope you're still enjoying these! We're about to hit 50 Encyclopedia entries!
