[D 1-5] D'akturak to D'blok

Another round of dream cards for the Star Trek Collectible Card Game, resurrected from the late 90s and given graphics for the first time. We turn the Encyclopedia to the letter "D" and the start of an expansion we'll call The Die Is Cast. And no, I don't introduce dice mechanics, haha.

THE ENTRIES:
[1] d'akturak
[2] D'Arsay
[3] D'Arsay archive
[4] D'Arsay symbols
[5] d'blok

NOTES:
[1] Something for all the DipHoLes out there. The target personnel must have all three skills. Source: "Blood Oath"
[2] I wanted a universal that was worth a lot of points. The problem is that you might lose a lot of your necessary personnel during dilemma resolution and be unable to do the mission again and again. Personnel that report for free at HQs are those listed on such cards (High Council members, Admirals, etc.). The D'Arsay Archive normally only seeds at space missions. Source: "Masks"
[3] Turns the ship into some sort of facility. Artifacts need not be normally acquired to show up on the modified ship. Reporting is not immediate, each counts as your normal card play. You can also use it to hurt your opponent. As a dilemma, it'll work well on players who aren't stocking Artifacts in their draw deck (why would they?), disabling their ship for good. Or better yet, target their ship present at your mission attempt, then report YOUR androids to it. Yep, the wording makes it possible to turn an opponent's ship into your own facility. Source: "Masks"
[4] Source: "Masks"
[5] Had to invent everything after "Klingon animal". Source: Referenced in "The Way of the Warrior", the pic is an artist's rendition of the Targ-like creature we see in Star Trek III, but I'm not saying these are one and the same.

Next up: Just a couple cards.

Cards: D'akturak, Confirm Culture's Existence, D'Arsay Archive, Masaka Means Death, D'blok

[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.

By Inferno's Light Virtual Pack

I didn't do this for EVERY letter, but the first few AtoZ "expansions" had working booster packs of 15 cards, sorted like so: 11 commons (of 112 possibilities), 3 uncommons (of 117 possibilities) and 1 rare (of 107 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 C's. Note that Enhanced By Inferno's Light would have been 5 special packs with set card lists, and B's Broken Links would have come in a 40-page box, so those cards aren't in the booster.
