[A316-325] Aster to Atmosphere

Another round of dream cards for the Star Trek Collectible Card Game, resurrected from the late 90s and given graphics for the first time. Jeremy needs his mum, so At Home with the Asters, Part 2...

THE ENTRIES:
[316] Aster, Lieutenant Marla
[317] asteroid belt
[318] asteroid gamma 601 (no card required)
[319] Astral V annex
[320] astrometric readings 

NOTES: 
[317] Mars is represented by Reunion; Jupiter was later made as Study Red Eye of the Storm. Source: VOY's "Future's End, Part II"
[318] Already exists as the Basic Set Interrupt Asteroid Sanctuary.
[319] The Excelsior is not the USS Excelsior, it is Sulu's ship, which would become Starship Excelsior in the game (did not yet exist, so you can look forward to my take eventually). Similarly, Starship Enterprise is Kirk's original ship. Source: Referenced in "Booby Trap", but I modified the Fleet Museum from Picard.
[320] So the ship did go somewhere after all... Source: "Future's End, Part I"

And now: Picard's job opportunity...

THE ENTRIES:
[321] Atalia VII
[322] Atheneum Vaults
[323] atherosclerosis
[324] Atlantis Project
[325] atmosphere conditioning pumps 
NOTES: 
[321] The first mission with a Countdown. Source: TNG's "The Chase"
[322] Instead of having to solve a mission for an artifact, you have a little race instead. The planet will show up in Broken Links. Source: "Devil's Due"
[323] Encourages Sites. Once cured, the personnel is no longer disabled, of course. Source: "Homefront"
[324] You don't get to download Cetancean Ops if you chose the original solving parameters. Source: "Family"
[325] While Borg usually count as biological personnel, they do not breathe so are not disabled. There may be ways in the future to attempt missions with Rogue Borg aboard, but not attacking. That explains the RBM clause included. Source: "Brothers", but there was no dramatic picture of it, so I repurposed a scene from "Clues".

Next up: We're going atomic.

Cards: Marla Aster, Mars-Jupiter Run, Astral V Annex, What's the Date?, Mediation, Atheneum Vaults, Heart Attack, HQ: Atlantis Project, Aaaaaaaaack!

[A156-165] Anchilles to Andorian

Another round of dream cards for the Star Trek Collectible Card Game, resurrected from the late 90s and given graphics for the first time. A couple of Program cards, incoming... THE ENTRIES: [156] Anchilles fever [157] Ancient Philosophies [158] Ancient West [159] Andarian glass bead [160] Andevian II  How Decipher handled it, for comparison: NOTES:  [156] Probing on a dilemma doesn't leave you much space to work with, does it? Source: While first mentioned in TNG's "Code of Honor", the virus was pictured in Enterprise's "Cold Station 12". [157] Something to seed yourself? I say "first artifact encountered" because there may be more than one under such missions as Orb Negotiations, and both opponents may have seeded one under the same mission. Source: "The Host" [158] None of the named characters were in the game when I made this card (which is naturally a Program under my scheme). Holodeck Adventures would make it an Incid...

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. 

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. Source: "Take Me Out to the Holosuite" [28] Captain Solok has the matching Nemesis icon. Source: "Take Me Out to the Holosuite" [29] In the list of Food-serving sites in the not to [B17]. U.S.S. Enterprise-D personnel are those that specifically reference the ship in their lore. Other ...
