[B61-65] Bar Association to Barber Shop

Another round of dream cards for the Star Trek Collectible Card Game, resurrected from the late 90s and given graphics for the first time. I think I need a haircut...

THE ENTRIES:
[61] "Bar Association"
[62] Barak-Kadan
[63] Baran, Arctus (no card required)
[64] Barash
[65] barber shop

Decipher's version, for comparison:
NOTES: 
[61] With Union Rules in play, Food cards count as your normal card play and require no upkeep. Source: "Bar Association"
[62] His 9-9-9 cannot go up or down. Not from War Room, not from Frame of Mind, not even from hand weapons. Source: Referenced in "Looking for par'Mach in All the Wrong Places", and never seen, so I decided to poach an image of the Klingon captain in "Subspace Rhapsody" - I imagine that he's a contemporary singer in an opera ABOUT that captain.
[63] We have had a Baran card since the Basic Set.
[64] Barash acts as a living Holo-Emitter. Decipher's version of Barash finally came out in the Holodeck Adventures expansion and is included for comparison. Source: "Future Imperfect"
[65] "Any Mot" may refer to an eventual Mr. Mot persona for Picard. Why the Espionage card? Because Mot was credited with making Picard and Data's Romulan wigs in "Unification". AtoZ might have proposed a Fed on Rom Espionage card at some point. Your barber is opposed if even your own COMPLETELY bald personnel is present. That does NOT refer to Picard (who has some hair), but Bolians (except Mot who is not "with" himself, Ferengi, Benzites and the like are completely bald. To avoid confusion, let's rule that androids (except the universal Soong-Type) and changelings have "hair" that can be styled. The Site can exist on a ship with Command and Staff icons. It can have more, but not less. That means a Galaxy or Nebula-class ship has a Barber Shop, but an Excelsior or the Defiant does not. 

Next up: Cards for stuff never onscreen (sigh)...

Cards: Union Rules, Barak-Kadan, Barash, Barber Shop

[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 ...
