[B226-230] Bioregenerative to Birthday Cake

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'm gonna have cake after this one...

THE ENTRIES:
[226] bioregenerative field
[227] biospectral analysis
[228] bipolar torch
[229] Birta, DaiMon
[230] birthday cake

Decipher's version, for comparison:

NOTES:
[226] This cannot be used on a personnel that went directly from your hand or deck to the discard pile - it must have been in play. The location of its death can be a facility, ship, planet or site. If such a location no longer exists, the card play is not legal. Source: "A Man Alone"
[227] Hybrids count as both species, so you could get STRENGTH +2 against both humans and Betazoids by analyzing Deanna Troi. Once per species: the card doesn't let you analyze two Vulcans during one game, for example. Every level of Exobiology counts for points. On a [Rom][Car] result, if you cannot download either of the cards mentioned, the personnel automatically dies. Source: "Timescape"
[228] Entrance and Door dilemmas are those that contain those words in the title (Hidden Entrance, Malfunctioning Door, Impassable Door, etc.). A space/planet dilemma would count as a planet dilemma. Where the Torch present, your ENGINEERs can throw people out of Airlock as if they were Treacherous, Greedy or Computer literate. They must still have the required CUNNING or STRENGTH. Source: "The Forsaken"
[229] Classifications can be anything except ANIMAL. The ability simulates Birta demoting a DaiMon to another sector (medical, engineering, science, security, administration or just plain civilian). An OFFICER converted to ENGINEER cannot be reconverted by Birta since it is no longer an OFFICER. The Rules of Acquisition expansion gave us Decipher's take on Birta (included for comparison). Source: "Bloodlines"
[230] There's not much point to playing Worf's Birthday Cake if Fissure Research is not in play. Personnel made AU by The Mask of Korgano may return to your hand (discard the Mask), but may not return through the Cake. Source: "Parallels"

[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.

[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...
