[B+ 21-25] Barrica to Bashir

Baseball cards start filtering in...

THE ENTRIES:
[21] Barrica
[22] barrowbug
[23] Baseball Hall of Fame
[24] baseball trading card
[25] Bashir, Singh el

NOTES:
[21] Different effect depending on if you are the attacker or the defender. Both players may play the card on the battle, each getting their effect. If the facility is under no one's control, the card may be played, but will have no effect. Source: "Empok Nor"
[22] Many Food cards are only useful at their immediate location (the Food-serving site). Now, order take-out and bring those cards to other sites. Those personnel battles need not take place at the Replimat anymore. Source: Referenced in "Ties of Blood and Water"
[23] The card must still have a valid target, if a target is required. You can discard a Baseball Card that is in your opponent's possession. Source: Referenced in "In the Cards"
[24] Say you meet Firestorm. You might have INTEGRITY 4 personnel in the Away Team, but your higher INTEGRITY personnel in same team actually boost the average to 5.1. All personnel are considered to have that number, so no one dies! The second function: personnel are looking in one direction or another. Those that face completely forward are not affected. 3 strikes and you're out means personnel discarded AFTER the incident was played. Source: "If Wishes Were Horses"
[25] The Bashir bonus affects him too. He stops those Cardassians because their own literature is so repetitive. Garak "digs" the elder Bashir, I'm sure. Source: Referenced in "Statistical Probabilities"; pic from Kingdom of Heaven

Next up: Even more baseball.

Cards: Draw Them Out!, Barrowbug, Hall of Fame, Baseball Stats, Singh el Bashir

[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...
