[B116-120] Baterson to Battle of Britain

Another round of dream cards for the Star Trek Collectible Card Game, resurrected from the late 90s and given graphics for the first time. Time to saucer-sep... 

THE ENTRIES:
[116] Bateson, Captain Morgan (no card required)
[117] Batris
[118] Battle Bridge
[119] "Battle Lines"
[120] Battle of Britain

Decipher's version, for comparison:

NOTES: 
[116] Already exists as a Federation personnel in the Basic Set.
[117] Neither Korris nor Konmel are matching commanders for this ship. An NA/Klingon ship may be repaired at a Klingon facility. Source: "Heart of Glory"
[118] Relocating from Bridge to Battle Bridge is still considered "walking". I've made it a little harder to commandeer than the actual Bridge (which we'll see later). Ship may be re-commandeered from main Bridge, unless ship has been separated. Decipher made a Doorway out of it in the Blaze of Glory expansion (included for comparison). Source: Set from "Encounter at Farpoint"
[119] If the planet no longer exists (thanks to Supernova, say), the card play is illegal. Good for personnel boosters or reporters, or for finishing your last mission. As the Event plays ON the personnel, you might Kevin Uxbridge it to free the personnel from the planet. Source: "Battle Lines"
[120] Super-personnel have their classification as a skill, in effect being MEDICAL x2, ENGINEER x2, etc. Source: "Homefront"

Next up: More battle stuff.

Cards: Batris, Battle Bridge, Resurrection, Battle of Britain

[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...

[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...

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.
