Broken Links [BL-A26-30] Saucer Separation to Stellar Cartography

Another round of dream cards for the Star Trek Collectible Card Game... more Broken Links from Apocalypse Rising! This time: A couple of ship sites...

BROKEN LINKS:
[26] Saucer Separation
[27] Shakespeare's Own Words
[28] Sickbay
[29] Cards that allow changelings to fly through space without a ship
[30] Stellar Cartography

NOTES:
[26] The Battle Bridge [B118] downloads this card, but its first mention is on a space dilemma called Losing Containment! [A211], which gives a list of Escape Pod-type options. The player chooses which Section the cards go to (including damage cards), so long as it's legal (Ship Sites for example), and may abandon one Section entirely. Putting the ship together again would be done via the persona rules activated by each section. Source: "Encounter at Farpoint"
[27] It seems this card was a favorite for me to reference (the relationship between Star Trek and the Bard is ancient and well-documented), including (to date) on Algorian Ceremonial Rhythms [A88], Anapestic Tetrameter [A150] and Basai Master [B96]. Keyphrases in the lore include matching commander status, family relationships (especially in AtoZ), "dissident" etc., and even personae and species. It can be used on opposing personnel and ships. Source: "Hide and Q"
[28] Like Hospital, this site was referenced on the Heart Attack dilemma [A323], but also on Amniotic Research [A145]. There's no reason for it to be different from Infirmary. Source: TNG sets.
[29] Promised by Through the Anti-Back Flow Valve (Enhanced A31] and on Laas in this very set [BL-A9]. Source: "Chimera"
[30] Referenced in the note for Astrometrics Lab [Enhanced A43]. Source: "Generations"

Next up: Temporal stuff.

[A1-5] 'audet IX to Abandoned

Back in the late 90s, when I was deep into the Star Trek Collectible Card Game world, one of the projects I was doing on Decipher's Bulletin Boards was a massive set of dream cards under the banner "AtoZ" (with respect to Mr. Atoz of "All Our Yesterdays"). Essentially, I took the Star Trek Encyclopedia and attempted to create an ST CCG dream card for every entry, unless the character or concept already had a card, and I think at the time, Decipher didn't have access to TOS and the movies, so those seem to be excluded as well. I got to the middle of the M's, which accounts for thousands of cards. But the thing, see, is that none of those cards had graphics. They were all just text-based. Recently, I reconnected with the ST CCG community, some of them working with the Continuing Committee, which is still making new cards. They hooked me up with excellent templates from which to bring dream cards to life. And so I've gone back to my notes a...

[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...

[A147-155] Amphibian to Ancestral Spirits

Another round of dream cards for the Star Trek Collectible Card Game, resurrected from the late 90s and given graphics for the first time. Hey, our first persona... THE ENTRIES: [147] amphibian [148] AMU [149] analeptic [150] anapestic tetrameter NOTES: [147] She is a persona of Deanna Troi. Source: "Genesis" [148] Why if Range greater than 6? First, it encourages slower ships who need to see the outside of a binder. Second, because those ships have the bigger warp core, which leaks worse stuff. Source: "Threshold" [149] Of course, your personnel may still be mortally wounded. Hypospray's other uses cannot be used during the battle while the Event is in play - treat event's text as another "OR" clause on the equipment. Source: "Rise" [150] One function per foot in a line ;-) . Source: "Schisms" And now: Ooh, I get to skip everyone's favorite Gothic romance ghost! THE ENTRIES: [151] anaphasic life-form (no card requ...
